  • @LeftEdit I meant why burn the shop down because you don't like the manager (I wonder if that's any clearer ?!)

    "It has no working class or anti-imperialist base" -what would it take for it to have one? It needs one...if all the people disgusted at the increased neoliberal attacks went to reclaim -or claim it,we could use the thing...it can be a vehicle...we need to clear out the tories running it,democratise it,it needs work but could still be useful. What else is there, electorally?

  • @JoeSoap68 Labour were also great pals with the city of London. Dont have illusions in them or that they could be helping the working class.

  • @NicosNicosNicosNicos I dont understand your comments about 'the country'. What do you mean?

    Yes, you can say 'the country' or 'the people' did nothing about poverty, imperialism and corporate greed - true.

    The Labour party can not be changed within. That has been tried and it has failed. It has no working class or anti-imperialist base. Its completely dead in the water and useless to us. It makes multi-million pound wars at the bat of an eyelid. Why save it?

  • @LeftEdit He is part of the country where that happened. How does your reasoning not apply to the country as a whole as well as the party? Why not try to change both from within?

  • @karezza6.Oh and the Tories of course have not ruined this country.Get real dickhead.Think Thatcher and the balloon head in charge of the country now.The PM and his banking bum chums have ruined this country!!

  • Sounds very revolutionary John but unfortunately not so since you are part of the party which has driven people into poverty in the last 10 years and did nothing about the City bankers. Why not leave Labour?

    You are part of the party who occupied and murdered millions in Iraq and Afghanistan. That supports Israel. Creates POVERTY

    BREAK WITH LABOUR.

    This is pure SLOGANISM and Labour is not a party of the working class or is it anti-racist or anti-imperialist. Its a dead dog and should be buried

  • There are less and less MPs who say anything like this, the rest becoming corporate clones, committing fraud for their government handouts and retiring to a safe pension and acting as a 'advisor' to some multinational.

    It must be lonely in the Commons for John.

  • "Rob a shop - go to jail. Rob a nation - get a bonus (paid for by the nation)."

  • Love John McDonnell. One of the hard-to-find decent honest people in politics today.

  • Our local damage included the Co-Op - hardly a political protest
