There have been a significant amount of expulsions, suspensions and other methods of preventing members from voting in the current Labour leadership election It is presently estimated that more than 100,000 people have either not received their ballot papers on have been prevented from voting by other methods.

On September 12th my wife was suspended from the Labour party, after receiving a letter stating

"Allegations that you may have been involved in a breach of that rule have been brought to the attention of the Labour Party’s National Executive Committee (NEC). The allegations relate to:
Comments made on social media including on 31 December 2015.

It is important that these allegations are investigated and the NEC will be asked to authorise a full report to be drawn up with recommendations for disciplinary action if appropriate.
In the meantime, I give you formal notice that it has been determined that the powers given to the NEC under 6.I.1.A of the Party’s rules should be invoked to suspend you from office or representation of the Party*, pending the outcome of an internal Party investigation"

My wife has never used social media and has, for personal reasons, not been to party meetings for some months. There is no formal statement from the "accusers" and no evidence is offered in support of these "charges". Consequently, the content of the letter and the allegations therein are totally refuted and which led to an appeal being submitted on the same day.

Notwithstanding repeated e-mails to the appeals at@labour contact e-mail address and other connected e-mail addresses, the Labour Party did not even acknowledged receipt of the appeal. The net result being that the deadline for receipt of ballots, 12 noon on the 21st September 2016, passed and my wife was unable to vote in this crucial election. As previously mentioned, she was not alone in this, as some 100,000 other members appear to have been dis enfranchised also.

If you've been denied your vote in the Labour Leadership Election, Please take a moment to complete this survey

Yesterday, a message appeared in my inbox with a link to a simple survey, requesting information as to how and why, party members had been prevented from voting. The survey has been produced by Ms G Richards (https://twitter.com/Grombags), who must be applauded for taking a step towards assisting ordinary members of the Labour party, to understand what has happened over recent weeks and the extent to which the party may have been affected.

It seems to me to be essential that Labour party members be given the opportunity to exchange information and personal experiences in connection with the leadership election which has witnessed events and circumstances, unprecedented in the history of the Labour Party and its democratic processes.

Please take a moment to complete the survey and submit to the organiser.

Enough of this hysterical nonsense

http://style.uk.msn.com/royal-baby/how-will-the-royal-baby-look-as-he-grows-up Media generated hysteria. This is too much. For the last 36 hours (thought it seems more like 36 days) there has been wall to wall news coverage, media and television comment and reporting, with Sky News taking first prize for frenzied minute by minute reporting from the Palace, the hospital, from a village somewhere in England, from the studio and anywhere else that Burley, Botting and company could stick a microphone into some obscure "celebrity's" face and ask for yet another banal quote. All this galvanising the mass hysteria of some elements of the public, (who the media would have you believe is the reaction of "the whole world",) with their flag waving, dancing, singing and cheering over what is after all, no more than a woman having a baby. How will the royal baby look as he grows up? Now the latest absurdity, this time f

New Agenda on Sunday is out Sunday, Apr. 28, 2019

https://paper.li/f-1346065353#/ Good morning everyone. Last weeks scare regarding Megan and Harry being sent to live "somewhere in Africa" seems to have been dispelled, at least for the time being. It now seems that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will take up residence in California. Unless they are actually doing some proper work in "The Golden State", I hope that they are taken off the civil list so that we do not have to fund their life choice. The nauseating Daily Mail is at it again. A headline this week, which I will not even bother to reproduce here, screams out in disgusting and repulsive bias without any acknowledgement to the factual basis of their "story". Spewing out their usual smears and embellished distortions about Hamas, the IRA, Hezbollah and the rest, the Mail condemns itself with ample justification, for the closure of a "newspaper," which again abuses 10 fold, the privilege of "freedom of t

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe
