Labour in trouble in Wales.

Hi

After being wiped out in Scotland, trailing 3rd to the Tories, Corbyn's Labour Party are in trouble in Wales.

Following a disastrous set of results in the recent election they have learnt nothing, attempting to force through their leader.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-36269820

Desperation has now set in and latest reports are that they are now prepared to do a deal with a UKIP assembly member in order to retain power.

Fancy that, Corbyn's Labour Party, we have principles , sucking up to one of Neil Hamilton's juniors just to retain the illusion of success.

Labour are in trouble everywhere, and they were long before Corbyn became head honcho.

By abrogating their principles and allowing the neo-fascists to control them I too condemn them out of hand!!!

Me too Joe. No excuse for betraying our principles and members. We're not Tories.

Re: Labour in trouble in Wales.

It had to happen, as more and more people are beginning to realise that they are not a competent organisation for running a country.

I'm surprised, though, that they are apparently not receiving the expected support from all of our recent immigrants, as they're the ones they have been courting.

Excuse me while I piss myself laughing. Is Carwyn Jones actually crying in that photo?

Re: Labour in trouble in Wales.

I sometimes wonder if Tories think at all, or do they just react like automata to certain words or phrases. Scotland is more concerned about EU membership right now, which is why those who don't want the UK to break up voted Tory. Those who don't care voted SNP. The thing about the Scots is, most of them actually think about the consequences for Scotland before they vote.

Hi

I agree with you that the Scots put Scotland first, which is why, long before the EU Referendum, they dumped Labour.

Canny people the Scots.

Nothing wrong with putting your country first. If so many Scots want independence, they should have it.

Certainly, listening to that cracked record, Sturgeon, and her followers you would imagine that 90% of all Scots want independence.

Strangely, though, when they last had a referendum on the matter it went against them.

Or could it be a case of 'the emptiest vessels shout the loudest'?

Re: Labour in trouble in Wales.

So the Welsh can put Wales first, the Scots can put Scotland first but if the English put England first, they are facists?
