The Mail had to fork out 150K for Hopkins last year over her defaming Syrian refugees, so it's nice that Hopkins is having to put her hand in her own pocket this time.

The Mail won't be paying it this time though, because this was all done in Twitter.
Yowzers. Apparently Hopkins didn't bother turning up during the four day trial, so I am denied a picture of her looking furious and definitely poorer as she leaves court.
My favourite recent Liverpool news headline was:
"He's BACK! Rollerskating PENSIONER GEOFF is making a comeback after being BANNED from skating in the city centre and given a fine!"
It astounds me that the country will be thrown headlong into this with basically fuck all preparation or debate. Surely somebody has to question why May and the brexiteers want this done so quickly? Personally I look forward to the inquiry many years from now analyzing the choices made and how it was a complete fucking omnishambles. I know that may be a pipe dream because the UK now effectively outlaws dissent and pro-EU sentiment but I can always hope.
Owen Jones is a left wing columnist who was an early supporter or Corbyn but has since changed his opinion.
He's gotten a lot of abuse from Corbyn supporters. This is a Facebook post he made about taking a break from social media and says a lot about the state of Labour today.
On a daily basis I have angry strangers yelling at me, on the one hand, that I'm responsible for the destruction of the Labour Party, and on the other, I'm a right-wing sellout careerist who's allied to Tony Blair and possibly in the pay of the Israeli government (and that I'm a Blairite cunt who needs to go fuck myself, and so on and so forth).
I can't help look at some of it as distressing, not because of me, but because of the cause I love and have devoted my life to, the left, the movement that exists to rid society of injustice, exploitation and bigotry. I always wanted a left that was inclusive, welcoming, warm, that tried to convince the great mass of people who don't take a daily interest in politics that a better world was possible. If it is overtaken by a loud minority who are, increasingly, bound by utter hatred towards anyone deemed to deviate from their sanctity of their cause, then there is no future.
Owen Jones was not exactly someone who was saying the non-Corbynites were all Blairite Red Tories etc but he was hardly critical of what Momentum were doing, IRRC, so I can't have that much sympathy for him since it was his lot that got us into this shit situation in the first place
That people are calling Owen Jones of all people a right wing Blairite sell-out shows just how insane and toxic Corbyn's cult of personality has become.
Kezia Dugdale, Labour's Scottish leader, says she'll oppose the second referendum. Corbyn says he thinks it's fine.
Leadership!
It's an established pattern between the two. Dugdale will say something and when asked about it or at his own volition Corbyn will say something else entirely. The national party and Scottish labour are on different pages. They should sever ties and be done with it.
And people wonder why they don't vote for these clowns up here as much as they used to.
Corbyn fucks up so consistently I can't but help suspect intention on his part. With the political machine surrounding him, it must surely be impossible to be this incompetent.

That assumes he listens to anything those politics-focused blairite scum say.

Well, there's a recent template for incompetence leading to political success, and now it looks like Corbyn is doubling down on being the UK's Trump...

I don't get how this back dealing, two-faced, unelected, glitch-laughing mess is able to try and take us into Article 50 this week. Corbyn, for his complete incompetence, and her, need to be raked over the damn glass-shard covered coals by history.

Too bad whatever history does to them we'll still be fucked
I think all these people trying to ape this or that aspect of Trump's political tactics really fail to take into account how singular a person he is.
Eh, I don't think he's particularly singular so much as he's in the right position and born into privilege.
About the only thing singular about him is apparently some kind of salesman charisma that works on some people apparently and a psychopath's complete lack of shame.
Other then that he's just a white supremacist born really rich in a country that really like's it some white supremacy.

You also need a news media that is awful in similar ways to ours.

So you did! I'm going to blame my 5 week old girl, who doesn't seem to sleep either in the day, or at night.

Brixton brought to a standstill by schoolchildren brawling with stolen mops
Better then knives and ammonia. Truly Brixton is gentrifying.

He does keep getting elected though. Just not to anything that matters.

Wasn't there an article in the last thread that his strategy was literally to copy Trump?
