This government should be brought down, but not until decent opposition is in .place.

And where are you hoping to find one of those Nom, it seems a long way away from where Corbyn and his Marxist rabble stand...

Re: Labour MP calls for General Strike.

Not much point in having an opposition that is just a watered down version of the incumbents is there?
That is how we got Blair and Co after all.

True Purwell, at least we know what the current opposition stand for and where the differences lie, and at least a clear choice .

Re: Labour MP calls for General Strike.

What price democracy when politicians advocate bringing down a government other than by ballot. Perhaps she hasn't noticed that at the last election the Labour party polled fewer votes than the Conservatives. Or maybe she has thinks that is the only way to get labour into government.

In a similar vein one of the reasons that Labour is will not be voting for any changes in the proposed constituency boundaries is because at present the set up gives them the advantage with most of their core voters being in the cities.

If indeed Corbyn gets into power the first thing he will do is to tinker with the system to make it even easier for Labour to win elections in the way that his much vaunted socialist governments in South America. once that happens we will disappear down the same drain a Venezuela etc.

Re: Labour MP calls for General Strike.

It comes as no surprise to me that a party that ignores a democratic vote on Europe can advocate bringing down our government. It sounds like something that would normally happen in a third world country and if he succeeds, that's what we will become.
