You mean social democracy 👇
👆Whether the #Labour party was calling itself a socialist or social democrat party in 1945 isn't the point. The real point is that all of the social reforms & plans achieved then, and which the #Tories would love to eradicate now, were achieveable under the idea of social 1/2
2/2 democracy, without the need for the further-left idea of socialism. Any desire to yank the #Labour party further left than it was in 1945 is purely idealogical and is solely because of #Labour having been taken over by far-left entryist ideologues & extremists.

So - the PM of the UK has, and is continuing, to break the law.

"Scottish judges rule Boris Johnson's prorogation unlawful".

👆Can parliament be un-prorogued? And who can do it - #Bercow? Who? WHo? WHO????????
Oh, bum, it has to go to the Supreme Court on Tuesday...

When too many people fall for the slime that is Conservatism for too long this, ultimately, is where it leads - democracy cancelled while they try bully tactics to get their own way.

Being terrified by your government wasn't part of democracy last time I checked.

"The party of law & order" (except when its PM says he'll break the law to try to save his party).

"The party of economic & social responsibility" (are your meds being rationed or your job about to vanish?)

Remainers need to vote in this idiot's poll, even if just to stop the bad PR it creates...
👆Just a little bit more please...🙂
👆 55-45% now! (Screenshot taken in case he deletes the not-going-his-way poll early).

3 hours left to push it as far as it can be pushed...

1. I didn't want to do this. I wanted to be patient and see if people got here on their own - but I can't take it anymore. I'm black and Jewish, and I'm sitting here nearly in tears - this is why. [a thread]

#antisemitism #Labour #Conservatives #ToriesOut
2. I've had fellow Jews tell me that I'm an idiot for supporting Labour. I've been told that Johnson's a better choice or "just as bad" & I've been laughed at. I've had to watch the Chief Rabbi celebrate Johnson's election and then have him ignore my letter asking for solidarity.
3. When I support Labour's positive and tangible attempts to reform, I've been called "deluded" or stupid. When I say how vital the party are for black Jews like me, I've been told the party can die for all people care. I felt invisible, erased, unheard, and worthless.

Deselection Express
@DeselectNow
The logical fallacies of people is astounding, literally just had someone tell me: Corbyn made the #Labour party swing to the left because he influences policy...

The fact is this: Labour members made the party go left and elected a left leader. Not the other way around.
All these people want to blame Corbyn for anything they possibly can, even if what they say doesn't make any logical sense, and they are so keen to blame him, they don't even realise it makes no sense.
Is the reason I want people deselected because Corbyn set a magic spell and made me want that? No of course not. Its because I am left wing anyway and we make the party greater by removing those who don't work for the people.

Recently Ellie Reeves #Labour MP was reportedly facing a vote of "No Confidence" and "Deselection" @elliereeves received a lot of support from Jess Phillips, Tom Watson etc. No motion was tabled with her CLP so the furore over a pregnant Labour MP being deselected was nonsense.
So let us move on about 1 week from this bogus story to the equally spurious #PanoramaHatchetJob about #Labour and #Antisemitism The usual suspects showed their sham horror of the apparent problems in Labour. #TomWatson #jessphillips
Tom Watson belittled, harangued, bullied and called into question the reliability and fitness of @JennieGenSec to act as General Secretary. Some might question my point on reliability etc. But the image I have attached which Watson and Phillips promote does exactly that.

1. I don't really pay much attention to #Labour Twitter. It;s not really saying anything worth my time. The right of the party are all Blairite remainers who I've always hated since they embody the worst of left wing paternalism and snobbery. Thread...
2. The left of the party however, is a shitshow of hipster communists and gobby younglings who know fuck all about nine tenths of anything, pushing a socialist agenda they don't understand much less comprehend the implications of it.
3. Then as I understand it, their fondness for Brexit is based on some half understood notions about competition rules and state aid - but in actuality they couldn't give a toss about Brexit. They're just at war with the FBPE morons since they attack Corbyn. Purely tribal.

I Voted Remain 🇪🇺 #FBPE #ABTV #WATON
@IVotedRemainEU
(Thread) To all @UKLabour candidates in the upcoming May local elections:

Unfortunately I will not be able to vote for you as a representative of the Labour Party; this is despite having been a #Labour voter myself in the past. Please allow me to explain briefly my reasons why.
After the sacking of Owen Smith, I cannot vote for @UKLabour in any shape or form at the moment due to Jeremy Corybn's approach towards #Brexit which I view as highly undemocratic and contradictory to what the Labour party is meant to stand for ("for the many, not the few"?).
The attitude towards #Brexit by @jeremycorbyn and other hardcore Brexiteers like him really is now bordering on the fascist, something I find deeply disturbing. It seems that dissenters are being crushed.

1. Worst national leadership in my lifetime forcing through the most damaging, misguided & missold policy I can remember. Ideology & vested self interest replace statesmanship, soundbites replace sound judgement & autocracy subverts democracy.
#Brexit harms us irreparably #FBPE
2. A flawed Leave campaign based on lies, deceit, disingenuity & over simplification & a #Remain one fought w/o any positivity from the Govt & no real commitment from Labour, whose leader was virtually AWOL, did no justice to #Brexit complexity & betrayed our democratic process.
3. A mere 37% of voters/26.5% of the Ppl voted leave in a legally Non-Binding test of public opinion which has been corrupted, on the basis of an illegitimate political promise & interpreted as being the irrefutable Will of the Ppl.
The 1st is insufficient to claim the latter!
