All the 'nasty party' BS is just that. I'm afraid the habitual whinger here has his head firmly in the sand and can do nothing in his looney left frustration but chip away at anything he can. Blair lied to the nation and has sealed the fate of thise country's future with terrorism. Milliband was and is a gormless idiot who deserves his own weekly column in the Beano and Corbyn is just missing a pointy hat and fishing rod and should be sat by the side of a garden pond somewhere.

The Tories are little better. Either way it doesn't make any difference because neither of these parties are the ones running the country. That some still can't see that is a depressing endictment on the state of the voting populous.

There was considerable opposition to the war in Iraq from those on the 'left', to the extent there was a huge march and demonstration against the war in February 2003, (I know because I was there and took part in that march and demonstration). When the vote on the issue took place, Blair wasn't sure he could persuade the Labour Party to vote with him, but his nuts were pulled from the fire by another party with a considerable number of 'lobby fodder' MPs - and just which party was that who also voted for war in Iraq??? - none other than those scumbags in the 'nasty party'.

I knew I was lacking in political acumen I never realised it was the nasty Tories who took us in to the Iraq war searching for WMD's.

Why tell right wing to seek their own threads?
It'd be a step in the right direction if we could dump this right wing left wing demarcation in the first place. Some people just like to discuss the topic.
That's what I was suggesting really, right wing shouldn't be stopping lefties but countering arguments or starting threads they believe in that is how a healthy forum would work. We really are not well balanced as left is being picked on not argued politically with. You can argue left and right is wrong way to see it but that traditional way I think.

Right again Morticia some of us have progressed beyond party politics to appreciating there are good and bad MPs in all political parties and trying to see through it all to what is right and logical for everyone.

Some left wingers it seems are still living in a different century with their bigoted views believing themselves to be 'fighting a cause' . The laughable thing is if they behaved in their beloved left wing countries as they do here they would be likely to be shut up or locked up .

Still not seeing it UJ ?!

Neither Blair nor Cameron run this country. Everything you see is just a smoke screen. Thinking you can oppose the real ruling party is laughable. Wake up UJ, The Matrix has you.

Stop wasting your time and life whinging about party politics. It's an illusion to pacify the weak-minded, to distract you from the real activities going on by unseen power moguls.

Yes most real Labour Party members were well aware of that one, it's become more obvious even since the blairites realised Corbyn was a threat to them.
