A Left source also suggested there was a “fear” that what happened to both Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott - suspended from the parliamentary party, and likely to be prevented from standing as Labour candidates - could happen to others.
Momentum, the left-wing pressure group set up to support former leader Jeremy Corbyn, said the speech Labour’s plans were “disappointing” and failed to “rise to the huge crises facing Britain”.
What’s happening over there is an absolute tragedy and just a shit situation all around for everyone but purely in terms of political timing this is a free kick for Labour to show how they’ve changed since 2015. Lammy’s announcement will go some way to win back support that Labour lost during those years. No doubt it will also anger many on the fringe of the party .
Absolutely amazing if this ever happened. Sadly I think this would need a large majority in the commons to get through. Too many “vested interests” will vote against so Labour need to force it through on their own and they can only do that with a majority. Great for headlines though....
I’m sorry what are you talking about? What’s an amp? If you need me do so something maybe start by being a little nicer. Sounds like you’re having a go at me for posting a link. That’s not very nice.
That’s not going to change with green energy though. If we live in a world with clean green energy… we’re still going to use all the other things that you listed. Smart phones are still going to need rare earth metals, coffee is still going to be drunk, people are still going to want Nutella.
I think what matters is the intent when you’re talking about “claiming to be innocent” and genocide. Otherwise pretty much everything we do in life has some negative consequence that affects someone else. We might as well stop living in a world like that.
That’s very much not saying that we shouldn’t try to do better. Yes of course we should, as should the companies and governments that enable this. And we should be doing it quicker. I just can’t agree with pointing at random people on the street and calling them complicit in genocide.
