We are going to have to face a simple and devastating truth on the left. Strategically, we are a fucking disaster.

Plans, cunning or otherwise, 'R NOT US.

Basically, in the long term, we have not a clue.

We are a tribe of Micawbers, "waiting for something to turn up".

"Not at all, and now, since this is a red-letter day in that I am hourly expecting something extraordinary to turn up, let us return and discover what culinary triumphs Mrs. Micawber has prepared for us."

We should rather seek out Mrs. Whiplash. 😒

@jeremycorbyn

On the rare occasion that something DOES turn up, like @jeremycorbyn , we fuck it up. In spades.

Why did we not turn up at Southside, with knobkerries and fire necklaces??? I will never know.

I am close to despair. 😒

Here, my Fweeps, is the CRUCIAL provision of the agreement, page 9:

"Article COMPROV.13: Public international law:

"1. The provisions of this Agreement and any supplementing agreement shall be interpreted in good faith in accordance with their ordinary meaning in their context and in light of the object and purpose of the agreement in accordance with customary rules ...

of interpretation of public international law, including those codified in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, done at Vienna on 23 May 1969."

COMMON OWNERSHIP:

"The law locks up the man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common
But leaves the greater villain loose
Who steals the common from off the goose

"The law demands that we atone
When we take things we do not own
But leaves the lords and ladies fine
Who take things that are yours and mine

"The poor and wretched don't escape
If they conspire the law to break
This must be so but they endure
Those who conspire to make the law

The Maastricht Treaty was signed by John Major, February 1992, but only ratified in Parliament in September, by Major taking the nuclear step of calling for a Vote of Confidence.

Only France, Ireland and Denmark held referendums on Maastricht ratification. The result of the French referendum, known as the "petit oui", along with the Danish "No" vote are considered to be signals of the end of the "permissive consensus" on European integration.

The signing of the treaty allowed Major to proceed with the long-standing Establishment plan to privatise the #NHS , under the new rules for business, established by Maastricht, where all new contracts must by law be put up for tender.

COVID-19 and public health - thread from @AllysonPollock .

Liverpool mass testing, 06 November 2020

The UK has over 20 years experience of delivering evidence-based, systematic, high quality screening programmes, which deliver more good than harm at affordable cost.

This experience tells us that if you embark on a screening programme without having carefully evaluated it first, without a proper quality assured pathway, without certainty of test performance in field settings, without full information for participants ...

... and without the means to ensure that the intervention needed for those with positive results does indeed take place, then you will end up with an expensive mess that does more harm than good.

@CPBritain

The @CPBritain addresses the expulsion of @jeremycorbyn :

"The suspension of Jeremy Corbyn from the Labour Party on the flimsiest of pretexts is not only a baseless attack on a longstanding fighter in words and deeds against all forms of racism, including anti-Semitism.

@socialistcam

"It is also the latest step in a longer and bigger drive to marginalise socialists and left-wing ideas in the Labour Party and the wider labour movement.

@socialistcam

"Make no mistake, the British ruling class was shaken by the June 2017 General Election result, when Labour under Corbyn's leadership increased its vote by 3.5m and won one of its biggest shares of the poll in more than 40 years.
