The final drive.

It is time for real change.

https://youtu.be/kDIuApfVxBg

We are now in the final week of the election campaign battle. Upon this battle lies the very future of our country and millions of our people. The people are in desperate need of a Labour government. The people on zero hours contracts. The people on housing waiting lists or seeking a home which they will never be able to afford or sleeping rough on our streets. The families reliant on food-banks or other charities to provide a meal on their tables. The pensioners, facing a daily choice between heating their homes or feeding themselves. The cash starved NHS where we are thousands of nurses and doctors short and GP surgeries where we have to wait more than 2 weeks for an appointment because of s shortage of doctors. Crime increases because the government has reduced the police forces by 25,000 officers.
This country and its people cannot afford another term of Conservative government with its lying and duplicitous leader and his band of sycophant followers.
We can and will achieve a Labour majority at this election with a united and committed drive to prevent the country descending into a dark and selfish period of austerity and more misery for our people. We will build a country for our children and our children's children, were poverty and child poverty is removed from our society.
We shall build a nation living in peace and harmony with our neighbours at home and abroad.
These last few days are crucial and we must go forward together.
We shall build a nation for the many not the few. It is time for real change.

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...

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 bab...

A perverse and rather sinister media obsession to discredit, smear and undermine Jeremy Corbyn

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/venezuela-jeremy-corbyn-blasted-for-not-condemning-president-maduro-a3606156.html#commentsDiv Venezuela: Jeremy Corbyn blasted for not condemning socialist President Nicolas Maduro as violent conflict escalates There is a perverse and rather sinister obsesseion with the media and particularly television "interveiwers", in seeking to secure from Jeremy Corbyn a "condemnation" of some person or organisation or event. This time it is connected with events in Venezuela and the actions of President Nicolas Maduro and the bloody crackdown on protests against the result of last weeks poll which inaugurated a constituent assembly . The media "stories" and the interrogation by the television interviewers, are as subtle as a sledgehammer being nothing more than a variation on the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" question, which so many repoters use in order for them to make themselves appear very ...
