"Centrist" = rabid capitalist.

People are fooled by the label. If its the centre it must be the middle ground, sensible, normal. That's how easy it is.

It would would probably be harder to do that if the current Labour leadership and front bench were in any way competent.

They don't, and never will have, a clue what they want. You can see this in their brexit positions.

The plain facts are that idealogically the Lab party in its current guise wants both a) open borders AND b) a planned economy. What they need to achieve b are lots of borders. Especially the type that stops capital floating about

"A competent Labour leadership would be miles ahead of the currebt rabble in government by a street."

Given the power of the UK RW media I'm not sure that is the case.

Blair first had to overcome the power of the Murdoch establishment beore he could even comb his hair

"overcome the power of the Murdoch establishment"?

He had the closest personal relationship of any Prime Minister with Murdoch. He is Godfather to one of Murdoch's sprogs and spoke to the Dirty Digger more times in the run up to the Iraq War than he did to Bush.

Dont forget he baptised them too and that Wendi Deng really fancied him. Rich people are so weird.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Were Wendi and Tony sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g? Or was that purely speculation?

Why do you always ask a question then answer it yourself in the next line?

I'm saying that an English bloke who admits to supporting England against Scotland will have a lesser appeal to the Scottish electorate than a Scottish born leader who embraces support of the national team.

Sorry I don't get that? Why is it such a big deal for you?

Scotland aren't independent are they as you keep reminding us. We have plenty of Scottish MPs down here in positions of power and it isn't a problem for us.

Yes. I made a light hearted post that his support of England "wouldn't go down well with the locals up here"

It won't No big deal. Nothing for you to lose sleep over.

It's as much as an issue as Ed Balls standing for Parliament in Ipswich at the next election.
