Return of Yermaw Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Ha. It will though be interesting to see how the dynamic works if/when Corbyn gets in - likely to bring voters back to the core in Scotland (well when they get rid of associations with the likes of McAveety) but likely to lead to in-fighting for the next few months at Labour HQ London with either a clear split in the party or Corbyn getting bumped by Xmas.......

ErsatzThistle Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I've a funny feeling that Andy Burnham will narrowly win it by a few hundred votes. Then in twenty years time 50,000 votes for Corbyn mysteriously turn up in a skip in Slough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toepoke Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 So your borders are Britain. Just a different nationalism. Reminds me of McTernan, espousing international socialism and British nationalism in the same soundbite. Hope Jezza wins btw... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunnered Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 I'm just thankful that for every few blind Nationalists like Exile there's a good guy like ParisinaKilt. A Yes voter who can see the greater good past the Unionist vs Nationalist nonsense. Blair Jenkins said the other day that independence will be won in 2021... I imagine it will be quite difficult to argue for a Neoliberal led Independent Scotland vs Corbyns progressive Labour government. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Indy 2 will take place on same day as Holyrude Election 2021. Indy Scotland or more tory tule.. Corbyn, guid guy that he is, wont win in 2020....

ParisInAKilt Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Awe shucks Its funny when you see labour, SNP and yes voters say Corbyn won't win the next GE. Why? Aren't you just falling for the scaremongering of the Indy ref and general election? Look at who's against Corbyn, that's reason enough for wanting him to win. He's scarying a lot of powerful people. His biggest threat is gonna be from his own party Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course this will all come to bite me on the arse when Burnham wins due to second preferences Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunchy Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 For all I like corbyn for being more left wing and being more like the old labour even if he does win the leadership race I just can't see him being able to win an election for pm. I think he scares the establishment/big business enough that the campaign would see corbyn being demonized in the media almost as bad as what happened with salmond during the ref Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Corbyn will reenergise Labour, and they could win the next election under him. There's millions of voters who left Labour who didn't vote elsewhere, if the were right wing tossers, they would have voted Tory, but the didn't, if they were tossers, they would have voted Lib Cnt, but they didn't. The party will implode if he wins, it could be great viewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
