Why would we? We had a discussion about it on the Whatsapp group chat and decided we didn't need to, as some righty know-nothing skidmark would be along soon to do it for us. |  |

I'm not a leftie. I almost posted it but know people get sick of the politics threads and the mood has lifted about the club so decided to leave it. |  |

Maybe because it only happened 3 hours or so ago, and some of us have other things to do, like work for instance, instead of jumping onto this site like yourself just to goad people who have different views. |  |

You're right, the Labour anti semitism issue hasn't had anywhere near enough coverage on here.
Have you started any threads about the ongoing islamophobia issues in the tories or rampant racism in UKIP lately? |  | | |

Deselected because he did not agree with the poison that is going on inside the Labour party at the moment? | | | |

I think it was more to do with him supporting the government over Brexit.
I'm sure you'll agree that only a lunatic would still be in favour of Brexit now? | | | |

Why would a leftie give a sh!t about the Labour Party? It’s a shambolic and largely irrelevant centrist party. |  |

He's 76 not 79, and has been one of the soundest, most intelligent and thoughtful MPs of our era, with a solid record on issues such as housing, welfare and the environment, so when he speaks out, as now, I'm inclined to take what he says seriously. | |

Most of the Labour party have supported the Government by abstaining on crucial votes on Brexit at the order of Corbyn. If they didn’t, they were fired/had whip removed
They along with the Tories are very much culpable for the mess now |  | | |

Totally agree.
However, it seems that Field's pro Brexit position has put him at odds with his local party.
My post was just a tongue in cheek jibe at pickles anyway, with whom I've shared lots of Brexit based back and forth. (He doesn't like the EU very much) | | | |

What are you talking about?
Labour have tried to vote down practically every single Government motion on Brexit, especially anything that was aiming towards a hard cliff edge Brexit. They would have had more success if it wasn’t for Field, Hoey, the Lib Dem no-shows and Co.
Field resigned because he was about to be deselected by his local CLP for that very reason. To see him use antisemitism to aid his jump and soften his own fall is disgraceful, regardless of the length of time he’s been in the party.
Remember this is a man who considered resigning in 2015 because he felt Miliband wasn’t anti-immigration enough. Also important to remember he was one of the MPs who originally put Corbyn’s name forward - proof that it’s not some kind of cult takeover where any of Corbyn’s mafia thugs are untouchable.
This lady will be next:
But hopefully her CLP’s recent vote of no confidence will ensure the whip is renoved before she has a chance to jump and cite antisemitism as the reason. What an age we are living in. |  |

Didn't Frank Field's local CLP recently vote to reject Jewish Labour Movement training on antisemitism due to "possible links with ISIS"?

Ms Hoey faces deselection after a vote of no confidence.
All the political parties are in turmoil since Mr Cameron decided to turn right and the right saw an opportunity to turn even further right.
Aided & abetted by Mr Clegg
As it is Mr Cable now wants to form a centrist party which shows that the Lib-Dems have moved from their claimed centrist place.
As usual it will the the less well off who get hurt most by all these in the establishment jostling for position. | | | |

Resigning the whip is a political wet fart. He's still a member of the party and will still vote with them in Parliament. Politicians are like children... most of them came to be there is purely down to the fact none of them are good enough to hold real jobs. They just say what their voters want to hear to earn another 4 years doing f'all. |  |

What am I on about? Just one example...

Very brave of you to expose yourself as somebody who has absolutely no idea what they’re talking about.
The EEA anmendment stood zero chance of winning and was a feeble attempt at defeating the government from the get go. Many Labour MPs in Leave constituencies (a lot more than just Field, Hoey and Co.) had already stated they would vote it down with the tories. Read what Stoke MP Gareth Snell said about the amendment in his own words:
https://labourlist.org/2018/06/gareth-snell-the-eea-isnt-the-answer-we-cant-lose
“Outside of the usual half-dozen committed Brexiteers on the Labour benches, there exists a growing number of MPs who recognise the realities in their communities. Who know that the reasons for which people voted Leave will not be answered by the EEA and consequently understand the electoral cost of breaking the trust of our voters in our coalfield communities, our towns and our small cities. These MPs will no more be whipped to vote for an EEA amendment than those advocating it as our salvation would be whipped to vote against.”
Add to that the issues with putting in place the renationalisation/state aid aspects of the Labour manifesto under the EEA rules or the ‘Norway model’, then it should be obvious why they would want to abstain on this amendment.
You say there are plenty more examples. There aren’t, but if you’ve got anything else to show me along these lines then you’re going to make yourself look quite naive on this thread. | |
