Day one of the Communist par.....sorry Labour party conference today.

Essentially Kinnock failed....I wonder what he's doing now?

Be interesting to see what comes out of it. Both Labour and Tory conferences will be interesting this year- Labour's so called 'hard left' seem to have quashed the 'Blairites' after the election result, but there are bound to be a few interesting speeches from the disgruntled regardless.

For the Tory conference, senior bods will be lining up for speeches with oodles of veiled criticism of the PM, Brexit positioning and general power plays, no doubt positioning for the inevitable leadership challenges.

Interesting times

Staying away from all football related programmes obviously, caught a bit of Corbin on Marr, finally convinced Socialism is a form of mental illness, I actually would rather less state interference in my life ,would rather they f*** off and only contact me when my tax is due

Sound like probable predictions to me.....very interesting times indeed.

The Labour party are cooing at Corbyn right now.....it's kind of amusing how things have turned out.

We do have socialism built into our systems....national health service and free education up to 18 and all that.

But yeah...Economic socialism rarely ends well...well I can't think of any successful examples.

Corbyn and McDonnell are marxists.....are you seriously suggesting otherwise?

I'm genuine about that....If I'm wrong and you are able to fairly educate me otherwise. I'll consider changing that opinion.

To suggest that the Tory party are far right is amusing and you are right to imply it's nonsense..... but your side do that all the time.....never see you countering the left wing labelers on hol though....so...

Hardly old chap.....France was an economic failure under the left and not really that socialist.....Citing individual infrastructure isn't an argument for economic socialism.

I'm sorry but you're wrong. I have never seen them show the slightest inclination towards Groucho or Harpo.
