Do Labour Think Focusing On A Year Old Party Is Going To Get Them Into No10?

[ToraToraTora]

Labour have not won an election since 1974 and show no real signs of ever doing so again. Labour have only ever had 3 leaders win an election. The current party is in civil war, no competent leader and no viable leader material. Antisemites and terrorist supporters stalk their halls. Marxists push a madness ideology. They have few capable MPs, absolutely zero chance of winning the 2024 election. Yet instead of addressing those issues they keep going on about a xmas party that happened a year ago. Do they want to win again?

"Are we meant to believe that no Labour MP's celebrated last Christmas with a party?"

No Danny, we're meant to stick to the subject, lying Tories and their staff, and not throw in weak diversions, time for that later.

Some interesting videos and press coverage today re the party that didn’t happen.

politics of eton
not so much politics of envy ( yeah yeah - wot dat den? etc)

I think it does a lot of reputational damage which was totally avoidable - a bit like the Afghan disaster

[dannyk13]

Douglas, the OP is about a Christmas party so my post is not a weak diversion.

//I would prefer the government get on with running the country //

so would I ! - one of santa's wishes I think

The Deputy Prime Minister announced that the Police do not investigate crimes retrospectively.

What an idiot.

To think it is bad enough, let alone to broadcast it to the nation. Of course the Police investigate crimes after they have happened.

// No Danny, we're meant to stick to the subject, lying devious entitled Tories and their lickspittle staff, and not throw in weak diversions like nuclear war or Ukraine or covid//

PP, see my post at 11.05.

11:07, do you have a link for that claim gromit?
I found this:
https://inews.co.uk/news/politics/boris-johnson-no10-christmas-party-december-2020-met-police-investigate-kit-malthouse-1336971
is says; "Kit Malthouse the policing minister suggested the Met should investigate any reported “historic crime” which was at odds with remarks from his colleague Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab yesterday who suggested officers would not investigate crimes retrospectively." - that's an opinion, RBID again gromit?

[dannyk13]

TTT //“historic crime”//
Probably referring to crimes where the patrticipants are a long time dead.

[douglas9401]

It could certainly do with a wee tot of Sanatogen to pep it up, Danny, but carry on with your loyal support for the lying gonk and his cronies.

[dannyk13]

Douglas // support for the lying gonk and his cronies//
You mean like Angela Rayner and the anti-semite members of the Labour Party.

Funny how Tory Supporters want to move on from their law-breaking MPs less than a year ago, but have been quite happy to harp on for years and years about the Winter of Discontent of nearly 40 years ago. But they don't like it when the boot is on the other foot.

[Canary42]

* nearly 50 years ago

[dannyk13]

Canary it was not a law it was a rule.

[Untitled]

still a rule that they broke and expected everyone else to follow...

why are tories so desperate to make excuses for this? what's in it for you to defend the government lying and backtracking over breaking its own rules...?

[douglas9401]

Noamount of diversion and obfuscation is going to make this go away any time soon, Danny.

[ToraToraTora]

untitled: "what's in it for you to defend the government lying and backtracking over breaking its own rules...? " - well we are trying to protect the country from a far worse fate............

I am not defending anything. I was just stating a fact.

[anneasquith]

Danny, do you think Boris is lying about there being a party ?
