Rather agree, but I'd argue that Starmer has decided that anything he says that contains a faint whiff of socialism is going to be monstered by the tabloids and might frighten off the few hundred-thousand floating voters in marginal consitituencies whose votes actually count. I suppose I should...

Unfortunately, First Past the Post doesn't give me any choice where I live, and I suspect a lot of other voters are in the same boat. We're forced to be tribal, so I'll be voting Labour as usual, even though I'm not particularly enthusiastic about them (either under Corbyn or Starmer, who are...

Thank you for your gracious comment from a long-time Oxford fan. Good luck to Mumbai - will look out for your results.

Only in Topsy-Turvy Tory World is a ceasefire a bad outcome.

It must be really hard work being the Duty Tory who has to blindly defend this shower of s**t. Still, well done for trying. Your loyalty to the party line is almost admirable.

You really don't get it, do you? Brown was an elected MP. Cameron isn't.

WTF? Gordon Brown was an elected MP. His situation was nothing like that of "Lord" Cameron.

Yes, imagine calling for an Armistice on Armistice Day, how unthinkable.

I'm not seeing much evidence for that - just rightwingers playing the victim, as usual. I've heard plenty of stories of peaceful demonstrators (usually leftwing) getting kettled. Circumstances might be different too. Perhaps lefties are capable of controlling their emotions rather better than...

Yes, because a Communist dictatorship is obviously the only possible alternative to a selfish "I'm all right, Jack" worldview. You're presenting silly rightwing binaries, just like Suella.

Absolute B*****s. Trolling is not constructive politics.

Yes. No. Sometimes things really are that simple. The marches have been happening every Saturday for some weeks. This one starts after the Cenotaph event and stays well away from it. If anybody is disrespecting the memory of soldiers lost in combat, it's careerist rightwing politicians...

Yep, Osborne's a Tory idiot and part of a crap campaign. But "A Remainer made an inaccurate prediction" does not mean that "Brexit was a good move." "Remainers loved it at the time" seems to be a figment of your imagination. Anyway, talking of predictions - when are we getting our £350m a week...

FFS, not this again. Nobody tried to overturn your vote. The problem was, after their "victory", the Brexit chancers had to turn their scattergun list of emotional grievances and shallow slogans into an actual coherent policy that made sense, didn't destroy the economy and aligned with the...

Setting off shortly. I'm on the positive bus tonight. Struck me as odd that most people seem to have Derby as major favourites when their record so far is much the same as ours, against arguably weaker opposition, and they've already lost at home twice: Derby 1 Wigan 2 Derby 0 Blackpool 2 (EFL...

Happened to look at the first post in this thread (Nov 2020). "I have had enough. This team is absolutely s**t. Fear we will be relegated if he is not replaced soon." We finished 6th.

Unlike your brilliant insights such as KR having lost the dressing room...

I was seeing a static image, but I clicked the red "Live" button (bottom left) and it sprang to life.

Is it just me - there's no "Listen Live" button on the website for today's fixture against Wycombe? [Ignore: it's appeared now.]

1-0. "Perfect penalty for James Henry".
