    That is a ridiculous comment. Nothing to do with the press. Posters on this site have been telling you for years that Labour's biggest trouble has been appointing unelectable leaders such as Cunliffe and Little. Obviously you'll get a fair bounce by dumping Little. In fact I can see a coaltion between Labour, The Kermits and Winston First taking the election, but it could only happen if your lot let Winnie the poo be the P.M.
    Allah forbid.

    Just saying
    Why would you say that?

    BTW - in the area I come from is Black Peter (or the "Krampus" as we call him) a grumpy guy who states the inconvenient truth people don't want to hear. My penname is absolutely spot on , no need to change.

    The Krampus is not confined to Christmas time?

    My (Irish) grandma used to refer to unknown noises as the old Grampus getting up to his tricks.

    actually - the big day is Saint Nicholas (December 6th). But hey - he must be somewhere for the rest of the year - doesn't he?

    Put Little next to wood face bill and its no contest, one alive and passionate and honest ,one a wood face who has failed credibility and honesty tests. But keep bill there don't replace him;hes just what the doctor ordered along with his smoking gun side kick Bennetficary suspect.

    JT, sadly your posts are the best evidence that changing the leadership for Labour made no difference at all. Labour's supporters still have nothing to offer but unsubstantiated smears against honorable politicians. Same old - same old ... this honeymoon will be short.

    Good on you winner69,me too just now. Come on one and all donate and even things up a bit and lets get the momentum going and encourage traditional nat voters to open their minds and be a little brave and look at the things we need to change, fix, rise up we can do a lot better. It is a cop out imo sticking to a voting habit or belief just because its been a tradition ; times and situs have changed and i believe labour/greens are the ones to repair the unfolding social damage, immigration and housing and environmental issues happening right now. With a fresh enthusiastic altruistic team that haven't been tainted by entrenched power and greed and whose main motivation has been in staying there, lets go for the better and the good.
