There's a new political party in the UK, which for the moment is vying for 'The UK's silliest party' versus 'The Monster Raving Loony Party'. And I think the new one is winning!
They've just had a so-called 'conference', where they voted on the party's new name. It is to remain as 'Your Party'. A snappy name, I'm sure you agree!
The party has just two major players; it's founder Jeremy Corbyn, and his hated sidekick Zarah Sultana (both above). At the 'conference' they voted that Comrade Corbyn should not automatically become the leader of the party, but it should be run by some sort of interim Socialist worker's co-operative, until time comes to vote for a pukka figurehead.
Politically, they are Marxist-Leninist-Socialists with Communist leanings. At the 'conference', the fragrant Ms Sultana declared the new strict policies of the new party to be anti-semitism and anti-royalty. I presume they will also continue to support the politics of the IRA, Hamas, and the late great, and much-missed, Hugo Chavez.
People may consider The Monster Raving Loony Party to be eccentric and unelectable, but they ain't seen nuffin yet! Saying that Corbyn has all his marbles is like saying that Reeves is honest, and supports hard-workers.
And who said Politics wasn't FUN!
STOP PRESS: I know you've all been wondering what happened to Labour MP Tulip Siddiq (above left).
Well, Sir Keith's ex-Anti Corruption Minister has just been found guilty of Corruption in Bangladesh, and sentenced to Two Years in Prison.
Life isn't fair, is it. I'm sure the very appealing Ms Siddiq will appeal.
Yet another neutral, fair-minded blogpost that follows "The Daily Mail" line.
ReplyDeleteSadly so, but I'm not so sure about The Daily Mail; they might have been a bit more damning. Poor old Corbyn; it's come to this!
Deletep.s. My info came from this last Sunday's Times. You may like to read the article, even if they're not as kind as me!
DeleteYour politics are very colourful. Something more interesting than the weather to chat about?
ReplyDeleteOur politics are mostly bonkers, and dangerous. But just occasionally we can have a laugh at their expense.
DeleteI used to find Corbyn quite entertaining. He missed his vocation, still comedy's loss is politics gain. Ha ha.
ReplyDeleteI see The Pudding is giving Trump a rest and giving the Mail is attention today.
He is obviously a Daily Mail reader. I hear that the readership is 50/50 right and left. I haven't read it for years, but occasionally Mail articles appear on my MSN News Feed.
DeleteYou're right Cro, life, and politics aren't fair if you're found out! Otherwise it's a great life if you can fool the people most of the time and get away with corruption on a grand scale.
ReplyDeleteEveryone's innocent until found guilty. Unfortunately the lovely Tulip, and other family members in Bangladesh, were caught, and their HUGE fraud was investigated. Two years doesn't seem very long for such a very lucrative crime.
DeleteI guess it is true, something for everyone. I have to wonder how many people are loyal to this new group. Hopefully it is a small minority.
ReplyDeleteEven their 'conference' only attracted a very few people. Old fashioned communism is dead!
