    There will be the drip drip drip of good news for sensible people over the weekend
    Crazed lefties will lie and spout childish insults over the weekend
    Labour don't have a clue what to do other than suggest more free stuff and more lies about the government going to sell off the NHS
    They will campaign for more men in women's prisons and other such nonsense
    They will think all these ideas will be vote winners

    That’s self evidently true, in some parts of England anyway. Though the wider question of what it even means to be working class, has never been answered anyway. Class is a great English obsession, not sure it’s healthy to even think in those terms tbh.

    What used to connect working people to the Labour movement, was Trade Union membership, which has been in decline for decades.

    My grandad’s mantra was “a fair day’s work for a fair day’s pay”. Good luck getting that working for DHL or Uber.

    I’ve heard you do a bit more than a nod, in the snug down the Dog and Duck, after a couple of Malibu and Cokes <ok>

    Well maybe Labour should get back to your Granda's ideals and stop pandering to every half wit in the country.

    If the Worker had two brain cells to rub together, he and his mates could start a rival company paying everyone a 3 token salary and sell the 1000 widgets for 900 tokens, undercutting the Billionaire.

    Perhaps the Worker could come up with a widget that was more popular and charge ten times as much and find enough mugs to pay 10,000 tokens – Steve Jobs did. Even better still, get rid of Worker and used Chinese Worker at ten for the price of one.

    The problem is that some of the basic concepts of Capitalism – competition, supply, demand – seems very alien to the Worker.

    Illegitimate ISIS terrorist shagger allowed to cross border from Republic of Ireland to Northern Ireland because she has one parent from each side.
    Who cares? I am sure it has happened before – just a different flavour of terrorist.

    If she wanted to live in Hull, they could find her a pad on Orchard Park. She would seem like a quiet, shy Irish girl there, where the kids throw rocks at the buses for sport and the Rottweilers go around in pairs.

    She isn't a Terrorist shagger though, she has a military history and knows what she's doing.

    Why can't they do both? Their policies are 95% around making the country a better place for all, why does it trigger you lot so much that it's not just middle-aged white males that all their focus is on.
