Corbyn comes across as just another politician who won't answer a straight question with a straight answer #Marr
At least it should be clear (despite his attempts to dodge the questions) to all potential Labour voters that Jeremy Corbyn wants to campaign on a campaign of carrying out Brexit #Marr
His pitch seems to be that he would be the PM to channel the anger of the electorate. A kind of psychologist in chief? #Marr

I made a new year's resolution not to get involved in pile ons or outrage-a-thons or even sympathy-a-thons and it has so far improved my Twitter experience
Obviously you can't be on Twitter and totally avoid these things but at least I'm trying to wait a day to see what I want to say about things, which in itself is helpful
Nb I have a theory that sympathy-a-thons are a flip side of outrage-a-thons as they create this sort of expressive inflationary pressure where you suddenly have to show solidarity or whatever with any number of things, and everything else gets crowded out.

The accusation levelled at @TracyAnnO that she is 'grooming' a child because she politely asked for her to meet to discuss Labour and antisemitism is gross. I have been through the entire conversation and the accusation is beyond baseless.
I know things get heated on Twitter and can spin out of control faster than those involved realise (god knows it has happened to me) but people need to get a grip.
And as @leekern13 (who I don't always agree with) says, accusing Jews of attempted child abuse is one of those things you should be quite careful about as it's a very old antisemitic trope. In fact, you should be really very careful about accusing anyone of it

@ShaunLawson is not being honest. @JeremyCorbyn was offered by the leader of the Israeli Labour Party to meet in Israel. He did not even respond. To his own sister party! This comment is utter nonsense. I am not surprised. He spouts much other drivel.
Now this silencing thing. Nonsense.

Of course you have the right to shout. But you have *no* right to pretend you represent the mainstream.

The Board of Deputies represents many opinions. You may even belong to organizations that elect representatives.

@ShaunLawson says it’s defamatory. I shall quote an honest man @stephenpollard on this: When they threaten you wth litigation they never sue.
This is typical far left. All gob and no trousers.
If you mean it, sue him. We’ll be happy to watch you lose.

The economic benefit of the EU comes from making rules & trade policy together so trade within the EU is cheaper and so we have more negotiating leverage in global trade.
Keeping those benefits outside the EU just means we're no longer making the rules, just following them.
#Marr
If we don't follow those rules, that makes continental trade more expensive FOR US. Even businesses who don't export: They and their staff all rely on EU products being as cheap as possible.
Who voted to give EU-based companies an advantage over British ones?
#Marr
Now, once we've admitted that we're putting ourselves at a competitive disadvantage on our own continent, the only question is:
Can trade with the rest of the world replace trade lost closer to home?

1) honest, straightforward #Brexit politics
There's now 4 major players in the Brexit debate
- Remainers
- May's Deal supporters
- Hard/No deal brexiters
- Labour Leadership

Labour Leadership are the most dishonest & duplicitous by any measure by some margin
#PeoplesVote
2) Remainers - are clear on their offer and objectives. Do not pretend that a reversal would be easy but are the most clear on exactly what Remain means.
The economic impacts are most clear as well, because Remain has no negative impact in the short or mid term
3) May's deal - for all its faults May's deal is at least real & achievable. There's a level of dishonesty as to what it means & the implications, and a pretence that it's "better for the country" but in general people can assess it

Like Remain, the EU will accept it

The rapid rise of the "Tax Payers Alliance" on prominent BBC politics panels is massively worrying and should be challenged ... they're an anonymously funded far-right wing think tank, not a grass-roots popular movement as their name implies. #Marr
Chloe Westley has been on Question Time, Daily Politics and now #Marr ... she's not given great performances despite clear media training. Taxpayers alliance clearly want people to pay almost no taxes ... sounds great until you think about it for a second 👎 bye bye NHS.
From her performances, she's clearly not an expert on economics. She's representing an organisation with unknown backers and no political mandate. So why are you giving Chloe Westley all this airtime, @BBCPolitics ?

By some distance, the most catastrophically anti-democratic thing that British political media has done over *decades* is to frame political activism of tens of thousands of people as insignificant & non-newsworthy, while obsessing over the remarks of individual politicians.
James Ball there is just regurgitating received wisdom of the political establishment, they've convinced each other that marches, demos & rallies are insignificant & not newsworthy. It's one of the major reasons why they misread the Corbyn's 17 election campaign so profoundly
The Guardian's readers editor admitted a few years ago that it is the paper's policy not to cover demonstrations unless they turn violent. And that's the Guardian.

#Marr #Peston - in a week when a far-right extremist was convicted of murdering a Muslim, injuring several others, and announced in court his intention was to kill Corbyn & that if he could kill Sadiq Khan too, it would be "winning the lottery", you run with "members abuse"?
It has really got well beyond @ggreenwald 's stage 7 and is entering into the arena of total panic melt-down. Any old crap at all will do to ensure there is no anti-austerity government in No. 10. theintercept.com/2016/01/21/the…
Clare Kober makes unsubstantiated allegations, says it's been going on for 2 years, & didn't report it to the NEC which is controlled by the Left, yet the NEC has only been under Left-wing control for 10 days, and gets a free pass to smear anyone she chooses.
