Have I told you how much I can’t stand New, New Labour? Did I mention that at all? Comrade Corbyn and his merry band of Trotskyites, bullies, misogynists, Stalinists, scumbags and anti-semites? Then let me make mention now. I FUCKING HATE THE LOT OF THEM. Now I’m feeling better.
Not content with spreading their hate-filled rhetoric among themselves, they are systematically removing any and all Labour ‘people’ and replacing them with their ‘brethren’. Like-minded communists insistent on redefining ‘democracy’ until it looks like something that Joseph Stalin would have admired. Or Adolph Hitler too. Because totalitarian is totalitarian whatever flag it waves.
Corbyn’s Labour have no time for Blairites. They have no time for traditional, union-based Labour, unless those unions are far to the hard-left. And driven by the hateful ‘Momentum’ organisation, labour MPs or even councillors who don’t share their rather extreme views are deselected and replaced with puppets who are. Unless existing members change their own personal beliefs to follow in line with the Corbyn/McDonnell way. Like our Mayor Sadiq Khan did the other day when he realised that mayoral elections are coming soon so he’d better start sucking up to the same Jeremy Corbyn he’s been in virtually total disagreement with since his election to County Hall.
Claire Kober was the leader of Haringey Council. She’d been in that role for 10 years and was popular with fellow councillors and the people of Haringey. She’s ‘moderate’ in political terms. A ‘pragmatist’. Both of which are in Corbynland, synonyms for ‘Blairite’. Soft labour. And she’d spent a couple of years on the housing crisis. Worked out a brilliant deal to create 6,500 new homes in her borough. Which, like all boroughs has a massive housing shortage. It was a 2 billion pound project. But councils don’t have 2 billion quid just kind’a knocking around looking for a home (or 6,500). Councils are strapped, always. The deal was with a building contractor. As opposed to an ice-cream vendor? A PRIVATE building contractor. And that is an absolute red line in Corbyn’s world. We don’t use private contractors on public projects. Which is why, as Claire tried to hold on to her project, Momentum gained control of Haringey, ejected the moderates and replaced them with Corbynites. Who would rather build no houses than houses resulting from a public/private partnership. Let the homeless sleep in a communist ideology, much nicer than privately built homes. And then they ejected the leader. By bullying, by being completely undemocratic and using the usual threats that the Labour machine reserves for women.
Corbyn wants the project totally publicly funded. Even though the public don’t have a spare 2 billion either. He’ll find it. He’ll ‘borrow’. And raise taxes. Which always lowers the total tax gained, but he won’t learn that. He’ll ‘borrow’ more to cover it.
Claire Kober then said that her personal experience through this entire horrible, abusive and nasty business was nothing compared to the levels of anti-semitism from Momentum and the merry bridge of ‘socialists’.
As I wrote many weeks ago; Labour; for the many, not the Jew. But I read it yesterday attributed to Howard Jacobson. Must see who said it first. He’ll be hearing from my lawyers. If I had any.
Happy horribly wet Saturday

Couldn’t agree more Andy. The Jacobson article was also excellent.
You probably know this already but I just learned that Corbyn was on the payroll of the Iranian government English-language propaganda channel Press TV for years. No wonder he won’t speak up on Iranian issues. Do his teenage fans realise just how disturbing are his underlying views or indeed how opposed he is to many of the liberal humanitarian opinions they presumably hold?
