I AM UNJUSTIFIABLY PROUD OF MY SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE RECIPE

YES, IT IS AN INCREDIBLY SIMPLE DISH

NO, IT IS NOT NORMAL TO USE A PEPPERAMI INSTEAD OF MINCED MEAT

YES, THERE IS TOO MUCH SALT IN MY RECIPE

NO, I WON'T STOP SHARING IT

Yeah it's hilarious to hear how Corbyn has killed the party when they're looking to get bang on the same amount of votes as 2010 and 2015. Only problem is that UKIP and the Lib Dems have totally poo poo the bed and Scottish Labour are the party equivalent of a gigantic flaming turd

I can't wait for the Lib Dem tears when they win like 4 seats and Tim Farron gets shitcanned while Corbyn stays #libdemfightback

The whole thing is interesting, (and depressing, especially the closed childrens' centres) but the Tory councillor running on an anti-cuts message is the weirdest, even if he just burbles on about waste and efficiency savings and so on.

edit: also the bit where Harris talks to someone who says "well, Labour say they'll reverse the cuts, but they won't win, so I'm going to vote Tory". And Harris says "so wait you're saying you want the cuts reversed, but you don't think Labour will win, so you'll vote for a party that's promised even more spending cuts?" and the guy just goes "Yup, that's it." :psyduck:

The level of contempt for the public by the remain campaign was pretty out there.

Like the Leave campaign were utter shysters but that was to be expected; getting the big four accounting firms, all of which should be jailed en masse, to produce a report that says it'll cost everyone £4310 per family in terms of lost GDP in a way that in no way addresses the loss of income by public + private wage restraint relative to GDP growth for the last decade was a particularly loving stupid decision imo

This basically happened and then in a brilliant strategic decision, instead of getting a general election they could have won by pushing really hard on a totally collapsing Conservative party, dumb rear end splitters decided to try to oust Corbyn by way of no-name dick pill merchant who instantly repudiated his entire life of CND activism Owen Smith.

It's a mixture of True Contemptibles and somewhat thick people who voted for it because they didn't think it would ever happen but did want to tell Londoners to gently caress off imo.

it was really impressive how badly they botched that i thought they had an actual candidate at first lol

they should never be allowed to forget what a monumental gently caress up it was arranging another leadership challenge then without a loving candidate christ

"it's not that corbyn's incompetent, it's that people recognize he's incompetent" is defs one of the funnier takes from the momentum people, as if this damp rag of a man could have snuck into the PMs office if only labour mp's had pretended he wasn't a complete dunce. sure he's an idiot who went whole hog on brexit but surely with the vastly powerful political machine that is modern labour he could totally bumble into power

It was particularly loving choice that they had a candidate albeit not a great one in Angela Eagle, and then Owen Smith stepped right in front of her and white knighted about Jeremy Corbyn hating women before basically saying "yeah cheers for firing the starting gun love but now we're busy ok?" lol what a farce

I thought Eagle was a stalking horse and the intended candidate was Smith all along, which was why he was approaching MPs about a challenge back in March 2016

The truth is without any hesitation about it being The Lame Answer that both sides were complete loving poo poo.

Pretending that there's going to be £350mil a week which is def going to the NHS is a piss take.

Claiming that it's going to cost everyone a very specific amount of money and that in any case they want an Emergency Brake On Migration is a different more sophisticated on the surface level piss take.

sorry brother but a brexit especially with the current level of negotiation (read none) is going to absolutely hit the average briton in the wallet and the entire economy as well
