Wtf I love the Labour Party now 🤷🏽‍♂️
You: “Labour is the party of NATO Hawks!”
Me:
“Labour is the party of NATO Hawks”

You’re goddamn right.
Your ex, obsessively staring through the window of the restaurant where you are enjoying a lovely meal with your new partner:
Laughing my ass off at all the insane Tankie copium in the replies. There are genuinely people who tried to build an entire career for four years convincing you that an unhinged collective of Putin apologists were actually Labour's "base".
I dunno I guess if you don't believe in the collective defence of our liberal democratic allies then you don't share Labour values and would be better off joining one of the many Stalinist parties that fail to win their deposit back in every election they've ever entered. 🤷🏽‍♂️

I prefer the painting with the eyes drawn on, there, I said it.
I am always in favour of more stuff like this happening, it's never not funny. Image
Add his credit to the original painting and move on. I wasn't interested in seeing it before, but you bet I'd pay 5 Euro to see it tomorrow with the googly eyes left on.

In 2012 Seumas Milne wrote that the US government were perpetuating a "falsehood" that the Assad regime was going to use chemical weapons. In 2013 once they finally did use chemical weapons killing 1500 people, Milne dedicated 5 paragraphs to his thoughts on whether rebels did it Image
The truth is Owen's allies have a long history of actually making excuses for, or even outright defending, catastrophic wars. His entire facade is built around you never knowing that, and gaslighting you into believing otherwise.
Don't believe me? Here's how Owen describes Seumas Milne's words, and here is the actual text that Seumas wrote. Can you see how absurd and farcical this game really is? It requires you to not bother reading anything. ImageImage

Philip had a nice little flat in West Beirut and he's out here talking like he survived Vietnam. Image
I know this because I was once in his flat.
Anyway you absolutely do not need to listen to this 'Hands Off Assad' grifter about anything ever, even if he did have a brief little Lawrence of Arabia jaunt in the bougiest parts of the Levant.

I think this hit piece by Novara complaining that The Guardian have hired a journalist who accurately reported on Corbyn's trip to Tunisia should be generating more comment, particularly given that it's based on defending Corbyn from accusations of a thing he admitted doing.
Given Bastani wrote to my boss twice trying to have me sacked, we're in a position where the country's leading Corbynite media outlet seems to be engaged in a personal war to get journalists who accurately reported on their failed political project fired.
"The Guardian should not hire this journalist who exposed the bad lies Corbyn tried to tell after the PR blowback from his visit to Tunisia" is a pretty rancid way for a supposedly left wing outlet to operate, but it's where we are now.

Bastani and co publishing an article the other day lying about the wreath again. Blue tick Corbynites never ever giving up on their betrayal narrative, particularly towards Jewish media figures. It’s repulsive conspiratorial bigotry.
There are countless of these desperate 30-something writers who consider themselves anti-racist progressives who have convinced themselves British Jews coordinated to “fuck over” Corbyn, who apparently did nothing wrong. He didn’t even lay the wreath he admitted laying. Gross.
Read these two tweets side by side about a man who literally once raised money for a Holocaust denier, denied the existence of mass graves in Kosovo and praised the Irianian theocracy for its treatment of religious minorities, and tell me this isn’t a personality cult.

The problem I have with this and the wider social democratic attitude to foreign policy is that these guys are patting themselves on the back for solidarity and condemning their Tankie comrades. They have no approach to policy that differs from the campists.
This element of the left is not, at any point, paralysed by policy inaction on issues such as Yemen or Palestine. In fact, they feel very confident in expressing support for radical policy proposals.
But in the face of the systematic extermination of the population of Syria or East Turkestan the very best they can come up with is a policy vacuum and maybe potentially calling Max Blumenthal a dick on Twitter.
