....looks like Sir Beer and co may well be boracic when they have to fight the next GE.

Why do you have to write in code all the time - it's not clever, it's infantile.

[youngmafbog]

COB never stops giving, well sort of in this case.

One has to wonder if the time has come for Party's to be allocated some funds from the public purse and be limited on spending their own cash. After all we dont want to end up like the US with the rich funding all the parties.

[Redhelen72]

He thinks its clever canary!

[piggynose]

can someone decode it please, or ask the clown to paraphrase it in plain english!!

[ToraToraTora]

Well if you don't know or can't work out who Sir Beer is then this post is way above your intellect. The link Helps.

[youngmafbog]

Good God, cant you work it out? I suspect you can you just want the opportunity to bash another ABer.

Boracic lint = skint.

[david small]

Sir Beer=Kier. boracic =Boracic Lint=skint.

[THECORBYLOON]

The Wannabe Cockaneeee Barra Boy is referring to Sir Keir Starmer and the Labour Party being skint (or boracic link in Cockney rhyming slang).

[THECORBYLOON]

For some reason, auto-correct wanted to change "boracic" to "bodacious". Very odd...

Boracic lint = skint.
So using ttt/cockney slang, would you say im Boracic, same as saying up the apples (apples+pears)

[ToraToraTora]

Looks like canary has taken over trolling duties.

[anneasquith]

Still despite warnings Ed. Ttt continues to ‘ talk like a 10 year old child.
A great impression for potential new abers .

piggy: "Boracic lint = skint.

Boracic lint = Skint, ie without funds.
Apples and pears = Stairs.
So yes up the apple = going upstairs.
With Rhyming slang the word that rhymes is often dropped.
eg I'm just putting my almonds (rocks) on me plates (of meat)
Just putting my socks on my feet. Simples!

^^^^ what has that got to do with Labour's problems? That's what this post is about.

[drmorgans]

TheCorbyLoon: aren't Labour bodacious?

[Deskdiary]

I see people are still pretending they don't understand TTT's posts. It's really not clever, makes you look a bit daft, and as YMB has stated, is only done to have a pop.

Sad.

Sir Beer is obvious, and boracic is very very widely know.

I genuinely felt sorry for proper Labour voters when the anti-Jew Corbyn became leader, and the massive swing to the left, because with him at the helm, and the swing to the left, it meant they did not stand a hope in hell of being elected. The British public do not like that brand of socialism. When the IRA supporter was appointed as the Shadow Chancellor, and the racist and incredibly dim Abbott was appointed Shadow Home Secretary, the obvious conclusion was that Corbyn didn't actually want to win the election.

[drmorgans]

I think he was deluded enough to think his brand of socialism might actually be in tune with what the public wanted. He said as much afterwards when he claimed Labour had the best policies. He was wrong. Which is why Labour suffered such a catastrophic defeat, isn't that right, beardie-man?

[naomi24]

Anneasquith, the ed has said rhyming slang is acceptable.
