Labour Leadership Contest

[Alcatraz]

Oaf turns into Tory Boy in less than a minute. I'm afraid you no longer fit in with the lefty liberal tendencies of this messageboard

[fraser_k]

I did, when he was at 9/4. So Ed will be paying for a night out for me this week

[Pogues Mcgogues]

Ed Balls just used the phrase comrade

Sums it all up

[oafc0000]

You see if you go to any Labour events anywhere in any part of the country the word comrade will be heard several times, guaranteed. You see the point I made about joining and not going to any meetings what-so-ever, you don't understand what the party actualy is!

I am...

Pogo, you have failed to understand the party since Neil Kinnock took over... It is only NOW is it coming back to something you understand... And you can have it...

How ? Like I said, I won't be voting for them in a general election..., Never have, never will...

[oafc0000]

I thought you voted Labour in in the General Election

How much do you contribute each month ?

[Pogues Mcgogues]

Why is that any of your concern? It's confidential (unless it of course goes over £500 I think). I will usually make a donation every 3-4 months considering I'm a student and can't really burden with a direct debit but I also contribute every month through my union membership.

[oafc0000]

I've been a member for 2 years and you've been a member for about 2 months. Who do you think best understands the party?

I was just wondering... Seeing you both think the party are better off without me yet I clearly contribute a shit load more than either of you

And given all the debt Mr Prescott was saying the party has Its just what the party needs... 16 years out of power and a load of poor noisy know nothing students shouting away as members

This is England 1986

Why are you smiling about that?

See here's the difference. I'm loyal to the party. If David Miliband won I'd be sitting here quiet just now. I would have my own reservations, but realise the fightback with the party is more important than my personal reservations. You on the otherhand are now shooting the party down that you're still technically a member of. WTF?

I've delivered leaflets in several constituencies in my time. How much postage has that saved the party? I've made donation calls. How much money has been donated because I helped with that? I've helped put posters up. How much money has been saved from paying someone to do it? I've helped organise fun raising nights.

You don't understand the party. I hope instead of leaving tho, you'll cut your contributions but go to branch meetings and see what the party realy is.

[oafc0000]

Unless you have access to Labours books then you really can't prove that and your just talking out your arse.

Anyways the political landscape is different now than in the 80s considering Labour have a massive chance to win back power in Scotland next year.

[fraser_k]

One would imagine John Prescott knows what he is talking about....

[Pogues Mcgogues]

As it stand I would still vote for Labour... Just don't think they stand a chance and not going to waste my money on them...

[oafc0000]

I was talking about you contributing more, smart arse.

[oafc0000]

Well don't then and I'm glad we still have your vote.

You have to realise tho, that in a party which operates a democratic system for electing its leader, you have to accept what democracy gives you. If you don't then your problem isn't with Ed Miliband, but it's with democracy itself.

[Pogues Mcgogues]

It's a load of crock that Pogo...

I support democracy but I don't support the torys or what they are doing...

Neither should I feel like I have to hand other my money just because you and your mates think a swing to the left is the right thing...

[fraser_k]

Well you must be a very wealthy student

[lost]

How much will David be now wishing he challenged Gordon Brown, he might of been PM now..

Looks like we may also have Darth Inflator as shadow Chancellor as his brother continues to dump UK gilts.
