Well done Len, someone had to say it. We have had a leadership contest since 2015 time we had a deputy one as well. Tom can stand again if he thinks the members back him.
I can't believe you are weaponising Jennie's cancer treatment. Pretty despicable to be honest. You should be ashamed.
I can't believe your sticking up for Tom, it's quite telling that if an MP is pregnant or a woman or one of a variety of other things thatsome think can be used as sticks against Corbyn it's the end of the world if one person wants to vonc them.
Watson plays political games to drag Frombys name through the media despite her making time to answer any questions he had previously but he stayed quiet and this whilst she's having chemotherapy and people are four square behind him. Fucking hypocrites, tbh I assumed it was usually cynical bs anyway.
It's going to make it all the more weaker next time the cynical attack is tried.
That's a whole lot of waffle to try and justify weaponising Jennie's cancer treatment.
That's an interesting way of you saying you have no counter argument
What argument is there in your post that needs countering?
I'll put it in Welsh for you if you are struggling...
Tom Watson is a Lizard in the undergrowth. As JohnO pointed out his persuit of Leon Britton when he was dying on completely spurious charges of paedophilia shows that there is a pattern to his unscrupulous publicity seeking. A very unpleasant man
I mean you are as any sort of criticism is ignored and the criticiser personally attacked in response.
Wow lets not get ahead of ourselves, she isn't a pregnant right wing Labour MP who criticism of can be used to attack Corbyn and I'm not Tom Watson, no one is saying she can't be criticised, or I'm not anyway. Tom is being called out as the low life he is for attacking and lying about her for political advantage whilst she is sick, because that is the kind of person Tom Watson is.

It plays to the cynical advantage of some people to pretend Watson is some great guy who fights for justice, they know full well the guy is a snake but politics is a dirty game, he is their snake.
Plus what special insight does Andrew Adonis have into the way Brecon voters will vote?
Aren't you worried about wearing that poll out?
I think HY must be breaking some kind of PB record here. Has anyone ever pasted in the same thing so many times. It is almost like an incantation. That chart is what’s giving him his lifeblood.
In America, 538 has published a table showing who might qualify for the third Democrat debate in September; note that we've not yet had the second, which is due at the end of July. Basically, candidates need to have recorded at least 2% in four polls, and recruited lots of donors.
So far, only the big five have qualified but several more are close and all is not yet lost for EiT's Amy Klobuchar!
It’s plausible. I was using Fidonet via a dialup modem in the late 80s. I think I remember bulletin boards with dating sections - though I was at a sufficiently tender age my main interest was downloading programs for my Amstrad.
In other dating news, La Oakeshott’s (evidently now estranged) husband is lovely, and if she’s left him for a Brexit Party Neanderthal than more fool her.
I did get lucky with a few girls at university in 1994 via their internet. They had these local telnet chat things.
Average of the last 6 polls, (those published in July):
Lab 24.5% Con 24.5% BRX 19.8% LD 17.8% Greens 6.7%
Strangely, people will keep insisting Labour are in fourth. While the LDs are sweeping to victory. The truth is it is very, very fluid, and the ball is firmly in the Tories, and therefore Boris' court.
Thats what was said during the Tigger rebellion. Watson marshalled his internal forces and everyone just pushed the fight on a fes months. So it shall be again, rinse and repeat. It's just boring.
There are thousands of people who are living with cancer, living with the consequences of cancer and living through their cancer treatment - all whilst continuing to work to the best of their abilities under very difficult circumstances.
No-one should be attacked because they have cancer. But also no-one should automatically be exempt from legitimate criticism of their work performance (before the treatment started) because of their diagnosis.
The special pleading that is going on is patronising at best towards those living with cancer and at worst deeply distasteful by using a serious medical condition to deflect attention from what is a very serious situation within the Labour Party.
I wish Jennie Formby all the very best with her ongoing battle to beat cancer. I never want to see anyone suffer from this most pernicious of conditions. People living with cancer should be treated with compassion and respect.
But I do not believe that she is automatically immune from criticism for her actions and the actions of those working under her.
Seems reasonable. She apparently feels she can still undertake her duties at the present times so I woukdnt want to patronize her by suggesting she could not take on any queries or criticisms.
The worst thing about this whole Labour anti-semitism saga is that people, on the whole, just don’t care.
As someone of Jewish heritage myself it makes me very depressed.
No its far far worse than that. Cretinous scum do care, they care because the truth about their sick cancer death cult has come out. Hence their screaming hypocrisy attacking whistle blowers "who keep us safe" and libelling the former party staffers.
Soon we will have two Labour Parties represented in Parliament as in the past we have had two Liberal Parties. I expect two Tory Parties shortly afterwards when PM Bozza demands no deal in "shock" at the EU refusing to renegotiate
Except we wont. Corbynistas will cling onto power. Labour MPs will not do anything. The general public will become numb (this has already happened) and then eventually he will be voted into Downing Street.

Does watching Pornhub count as meeting your partner online?...
Not impossible that one met someone online in 1980s via ARPANET and UseNet groups etc etc.
But 2% seems highly unlikely.
I remember something called Prestel which was available via Ceefax teletext in the 1980s. You could send and receive information on it. My parents hardly ever used it though because it was very expensive. It cost about £5 to use it for 10 minutes, or something like that. I was about 5 years old but I can recall it quite clearly.
Jeremy Corbyn is at war with his own SON: Seb, 27, 'warns his Labour leader father that the "Stalinist" clique around him has too much power' amid party civil war over second Brexit referendum and anti-semitism
Thats what was said during the Tigger rebellion. Watson marshalled his internal forces and everyone just pushed the fight on a fes months. So it shall be again, rinse and repeat. It's just boring.
It is important for Tom, Jess Phillips and other moderates to feel wanted now and again, so they kick up a bit of fuss and the media gives them a bit of attention and they feel better for a bit.
Edit: No quotes from Jess on Tom Watson though as yet... usually racing to show solidarity and always making a big show of how she is willing to criticise people on her own side.

One senior Minister told The Mail on Sunday: 'If Sir Kim had been half as plugged into Washington as he claims, then he would have known the way the wind was blowing and resigned on Sunday morning. His arrogance that he could tough it out in the face of the inevitable Trump storm was ill-conceived.'

One Westminster source said: “The smart money would be on Carrie not making it to Downing Street one way or the other. After the leaks started coming out about Carrie and her job there’s no way that could happen.”
The source added: “Boris’s team don’t like her, they never have.
“It’s the usual ego stuff. And she personally doesn’t like them.
“They should be concentrating on just getting Boris over the line and preparing for the transition to No10. but there is a real war on now.”

I’m so glad I never went into politics
His aides are right; No 10 is no place for a mistress.

Not clear what that project is, but it definitely involves his holiness the Jezza.

How to get rid of Watson thread.
So far, only the big five have qualified but several more are close and all is not yet lost for EiT's Amy Klobuchar!

But then as you note the public dont really care much either. Brexit has moved the polls, this long running story has not.

Won't be holding my breath....
Why does it look like a quote but then it has speech marks inside that around Stalinist?
Is it because he said something quite different?

Who supports Johnson by any chance?
They mean 6, or 12 if they're being super pedantic.
Shame to let a factual inaccuracy mess up a perfectly good racist scaremongering poster.
