    Because they shouldn't be distinguished. Certainly not in terms of standards of behaviour.

    Difficult to justify stopping talking about Corbyn, whose legacy Labour are still suffering because of, when a lot of Labour supporters act like Thatcher is Emperor Palpatine, always likely to come back from the dead.

    Is there someone at home who has to listen to all this relentless posturing, you really need to get out more.

    I think he is stuck in the land of Mrs Krankie and nobody will talk to him.

    Thanks for the image in my head <laugh>

    I dont think anyone is queueing up to shoot him down mate. He is in a tremendous position to showcase his party and policy. If he has rubbish policy I expect him to be challenged, but that would be good for us all as it should mean he brings better policy when elected. The media are on his side, the public are on his side. Tell us more about your plans and we can look forward with hope. Stay quiet, other than when shouting about the tories, and I will continue to think he has nothing much to offer.

    While I’ll agree we should move on from Brexit and Corbyn etc, people like myself will always bring up that old witch because of the damage and ruin she did to the north east which still remains today

    No, because it's just vague waffle and things that are nothing more than your opinion ...

    ... making a direct comparison between a long serving Prime Minister, who totally changed the country, and a one time leader of an unelected party is plain nonsense. You can't see that because you're more blinkered than those you accuse.

    Mentioning the leader of a party whose actions just three years ago have left that party a shell - 'nothing to see here'.

    Tories do anything - 'Somehow, Thatcher returned'.

    No comment yet again on the subject matter. Silence when Labour whips are removed and their donors exposed as potential criminals, but all over the Tories doing the same like a tramp on hot chips.

    Someone's blinkered, that's for sure.

    This is where I become boring, correct? Or will I post it later so you can say the football's on?

    This is one of those situations where we really need to see everything that's being said back and forth between government and unions.

    I'm sympathetic to the nurses, but it's not just them that need paying properly and if they're given 19% all it will do is bring everyone else out on strike for that much.

    And the armed forces personnel who ultimately bail everyone out will get nothing.

    Here’s an idea, why don’t the MPs resign hand in their salaries, their expenses and perks and sign on the dole then their money could go to people who work for a living.

    Bumper year this year.

    Maybe their pay-offs could go to their constituencies.

    I do wonder how many of these issues with negotiations are about being seen to get a minister round the table.
