The Election that Labour Lost - Corbyn Mania

Telegraph: Reports " Labour seems to have forgotten that it lost the last election..Jeremy Corbyn's team boast about their man winning the leadership election, but when will they stop talking to themselves? "

Lets Get Real:

The Labour Party is in a World of hurt, it can process the fact that it lost the last election big time, in fact it lost Seats from 2010, and during that time the Miliband team had moved Labour to centre left, the election of Jeremy Corbyn has moved the Labour Party off the cliff and in to haze that it might never return from, the article notes that the election of Corbyn is seen as more important, that shows how out of touch the Labour Party is, the UK voter when given a choice between  a left or right Party, chose the Conservative Party, they want to keep their own money, they want to pass that money to their children or grand children, they want a small State and they want the Unions under firm control.   The Labour Party faces being out of power for a generation, in that time good MP's will see their careers go down in flames and become ashes, they should recall those young Labour MPs's in 1979 who thought they would be back in power in a few years, they had to wait seventeen and a half years.   Thus one can expect those with ambition to move to other Parties, why become trench fodder for a Leader you do not support or even like, the Liberal Democrats or even Conservatives might get some defections. 

Labour and Syria - Syrian Crisis

Guardian - Labour Live: Reports on  Shadow Foreign Secretary Hillary Benn's policy towards Syria and air strikes, " who has been battling to maintain party unity on the issue of airstrikes, told the party conference on Monday that the party would support effective action in Syria, while ruling out backing UK troops on the ground. John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor and a close ally of Jeremy Corbyn, has suggested Labour MPs may be a given a free vote if Cameron brings a fresh motion to the Commons supporting airstrikes in Syria.. "

Lets Get Real:

This time PM David Cameron has to win a vote on Syria, thus he will not go to the House of Commons in less he sure that he can get it through his own Party and with the support of Labour MPs.   The policy should be simple, air strikes on Daesh in Syria, but no US or UK ground troops for Syria, let the Russians have the body bags, also there needs an understanding that Assad can not be a long term part of the peace process, he must go in to exile, Moscow in winter is nice.   IF Russia and the US can get  deal on Syria it might open channels to back channel talks on a better relationship, as long as Russia does not teach those East Ukraine rebels how to create a dirty bomb, that would cause a serious problem in the 2nd Cold War.   Thus we wait to see if Obama and Putin can cut a deal, that benefits both. 

The Tax Hikes of Labour - Labour Party Conference

Daily Mail: Reports " McDonnell and Corbyn threaten 60% tax rate: Left-winger unveils Labour's socialist vision with attacks on the rich and big business  "

Lets Get Real:

The speech by the Shadow Chancellor was happy hour for the extreme left of the Labour Party, as stated in previous blog; if Labour wants a happy hour, hire a hooker, do not push your ideals on to voters that have rejected it, as in the  recent general election.   The BBC seems to be going out of its way to give the impression that Corbyn and Co are normal, they are from the extreme left, the majority of Labour MP's do not support them, and if they could throw them off a cliff they would do so in a minute.   Thus Labour is caught up in its own bubble, it thinks what it needs to keep its new supporters happy, news to these idiots, the young never vote on mass, in the 2015 general election this voter saw a lot of older voters voting, thus its £1 bet that the Conservatives would be the largest Party, even this blog did not see that the Conservatives would have a majority.   Thus its fun seeing a Political Party go over a cliff and not needing to be pushed. 

The Problem of Syria - Syrian Crisis

BBC News: Reports " The US and France insisted Syria's President Assad must go, but Russia said it would be an "enormous mistake" not to work with him to tackle Islamic State (IS) militants. "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians main interest in keeping their warm water port in the Middle East, there secondary aim is to keep Assad in power, while the West has stepped back from wanting Assad to leave forthwith, they see him as a part of a prcess towards a peace deal.   The US and Russia need an official deal that allows them to fight Daesh, on background they could agree that Assad can be part of the peace talks but in the long term he has to go to Moscow to live.    The threat of Daesh is ever growing, they have to be removed before they create their own Country in the ashes of Syria and Iraq, the Russians should do the ground fighting, they do not fight according to the rules of War, in other words the ends do justify the means when it comes to Syria.   Lets hope the powers have not forgotten the deal of back channel deals. 

Doctor Who Review - The Witch's Familiar

Doctor Who News: Reports " 3.7 million, a 16.6% share of the audience, watched Doctor Who, The Witch's Familiar in the UK, according to unofficial overnight viewing figures.  "

Lets Get Real:

This was a great 2nd partner, there was Missy with her human companion Clara trying to save the Doctor, if I fancy Missy/Master do I need more therapy!!  There was great dark humour as Missy wound up Clara, calling her puppy and throwing her down holes in the ground for starters.   The Doctor had his own human problem, Davros must be human in way.  The episode was double header between the Doctor and Davros, the Doctor showed his heroic and mercy in wanting to allow Davros to see the Sun come up.  THAT was mistake, its spoiler to tell how!   It was  trick by Davros, but even then the Doctor showed he is always a HERO by saving the young Davros, would we save people we hated?  That is the quality of mercy. 

Corbyn and 9/11 - Corbyn Mania

Telegraph: Reports " Jeremy Corbyn: 9/11 was 'manipulated'..In comments that will raise questions about his suitability to lead the Labour Party, Mr Corbyn appeared to blame George Bush and Tony Blair for using the September 11 attacks in New York to allow them to go to war  "

Lets Get Real:

" Red " Jeremy Corbyn has shown that he is on the extreme left when it comes to politics, in fact lets be honest, he is a red nut, he might have a big majority, so did Alan B'stad ( New Statesman ) at least Alan was better dressed and was funny, more than can be said for Red Jeremy ( another public school boy ).   Those Labour MP's that want to see Labour have a chance in 2020 really need to be planning to get rid of RED Jeremy by the new year, the Labour Party conference this week should be fun, like the old Labour Party conferences of the 1970s and 80s, full of division and argument, with the Unions having to much power.  It has been reported that Corbyn will try to get Conference to vote against Trident, if this happens then Labour can kiss goodbye to an election victory for a generation. It is interesting to see a political party commit political suicide.

Divisons in the Left over the Economy - Corbyn Mania

Guardian: Reports " John McDonnell has 'fallen into Osborne's trap', says Caroline Lucas..Green party MP says shadow chancellor’s decision to back proposed fiscal charter reinforces Tories’ austerity narrative  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the problem now faced by left wing Parties in the UK, when Labour was New Labour these Parties could promise left wing polices that did not get challenge from Labour, now that Labour has gone back to being old Labour, these left wing Parties such as the Greens and the SNP, want to form an alliance, the problem is that the majority of the PLP is on the right even moderate, whille " Red " Jeremy is on the extrme left wing, so his Chancellor.   Thus while Labour makes itself happy; it would be cheaper and more logical to hire a high class escort for the same effect; the real politics of the centre ground is being run by the Conservative Party.   One wonders how long the Labour Party will be asleep at the wheel, when it will go grow up, when it losses the 2025 Election?
