Scunnered Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Deputy Dug no more... Alex Rowley the new deputy though... Leader wasn't going to matter as there was nothing between them. Matheson is an evil though so Rowley was best choice there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunnered Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'd be very, VERY surprised if there were 21,000 eligible votes in that contest... Saying that I'm not sure of Union numbers. I know plenty of Labour members, and only a handful of them bothered to vote in this contest so the 5,000 votes claim doesn't seem too unrealistic.

Inferring it plus letting Kezia weigh in with "people voted against Labour in Scotland because of a "once in a generation" referendum.

King Of Paisley Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Oh? Have a gander at the 1983 GE manifesto that was described as the longest suicide note in history. Corbyn is hell bent on going one better. Allied to the fact that he is against self-determination for Scotland whilst supporting a united Ireland and cosying up to IRA terrorism. All good news for the SNP as Corbyn has shown his true colours. As bad as the halfwits in the Red Tories who bombarded us with lies and scaremongering during indyref and the last election campaign.
