Your Party (now actually called that) DEAD...tired - The Jeremy Corbyn Years (feat. Zarah Sultana)

[Lucille]

They already messed up the press release so they’re not exactly filling me with confidence.

 

[Lucille]

Fumbling the roll-out so bad they may as well call it 143.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Yes I've put this in its own thread, and yes I've went straight for years.

AND WHAT ABOUT IT?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

The thing is, Your Party isn't the worst name in the world. They should keep it now.

 

[dmlaw]

You’ve also called Zarah Sultana Sarah Sultana which, in fairness, does seem quite likely to be on brand for the party.

I'm blaming that one on autocorrect

RUSH RELEASING without even a NAME does seem like they’re trying to get in on Zack Polanski’s nachos.

 

[Shirley]

It's MY PARTY and I'll CRY IF I WANT TO

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Great, lets split the left even further.

Corbyn is such a sad old cunt. While I'm happy to ride the anti-Israel train, I still recall his complete, and utterly telling, failure to call out antisemitism.

 

[Lucille]

 

[Ellie]

I read this alert as Jeremy Clarkson, thinking that’s a very strange pairing

 

[Tisch]

Does "Your Party" suggest they're putting the name to a PHONE VOTE?

 

[Lucille]

It’s being called Boaty McBoatface isn’t it.

 

[GNL]

Does "Your Party" suggest they're putting the name to a PHONE VOTE?

Can't wait for the Inaugural Party McPartface Conference.

 

[Lucille]

Can we try and rig the vote to call it SAM TEEN?

It's too EASY for puns and funny mickey takes.

URINE PARTY

Do you want to live in a UK that's STILL BREATHING?

Literally took him about two years. Plus he was sharing antisemitic tropes. Fuck him. One source does not make the complete story. I'm sure I could I find an old story to prove Starmer isn't a vile transphobe.

How quickly we forget.

 

[Lucille]

ANAL BUM PARTY.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Can we try and rig the vote to call it SAM TEEN?

When (yes WHEN) they win seats the candidate needs to step up to the podium, announce that they are STILL BREATHING, then POSE

 

[ZenGiraffe]

(also every speech they give in parliament should get 5% faster every time they breathe)

Putting the antisemitism thing to one side, from what I've read about Corbyn's time running the Labour party, one consistent criticism from all sides is that he was a dreadful decision maker who would frequently dither or change his mind, making it virtually impossible to have a clear message or to get anything done.

So the fact that he's launched/not launched a party/not a party/OK yes maybe it is a party but it doesn't have a name yet and there's no policies because they should all be decided by a committee at a later date totally tracks...

 

[jivafox]

Thank god the new leader stands firm in his decisions!

I'm assuming the thinking is that he's leader for brand recognition and that Sultana is meant to keep the boring functional side of party leadership working.

And what a track record they have so far!

 

[Lucille]

Launching with no leader, name or policies!

 

[Lucille]

I get they want everything done by COMMITTEE but I don’t see that being PRACTICAL in reality.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

YOUR PARTY, MY PARTY, EVERYBODY MOVE YOUR PARTY

 

[Tisch]

Still screaming at registering and posting a link to www.yourparty.com and then ridiculing the press for going with that as your name. "It's not called YOUR PARTY why would you think that?"

JUST KEEP THE NAME. IT MAKES SENSE WITH THIS SELLING POINT ANYWAY.

A little IMPOSISTION is fine!

 

[GNL]

When the audience democratically decides they should be named The Palestine Action Party, what then?

 

[Finn]

Your Party is a great name! Keep it you fools!

Ok, I'm IN!

Love to see everyone kicking one of very very few hopes for the restoration of sanity to death before they've even started.

 

[Kate]

Well I've signed up (but not donated anything yet )

 

[Shoat]

Great, lets split the left even further.

This was initially my thinking too. But with Labour lurching ever more to the right, who are the left even flocking to these days?

Much love for the Greens, but I honestly think they're still seen (unfairly) as too one-policy to gather mass support.

The Lib Dems are more centrist.

So maybe just maybe there is a small gap for a new left party to swoop in?

 

[big ron]

This does seem timed to coincide with Green Zack's uprising.

Much as I love are Jez, I'm sticking with my Green membership (and ongoing involvement with policy making)

I started with hope in my heart but by the time I got to the end of the comments I knew this was another thread I will not bother posting in, other than this reply to you.
