A New Political Force?

[mickd1961]

Thankfully Corbyn’s Labour is now finished.

The gang of seven are also dangerous for the Tory Party.

Although I’m not a “Remainer” I do think that a new party of substance would be very important in this country.

I’ll admit,I like Chukka and I think he’s an impressive guy.

I sort of hope they kick this Trotsky Labour to death and bring some realism to the complacent Tory Party.

I can see Tom Watson either leading a coup against Corbyn or joining the new group.

So many things to be envious about from Oz but 7 PM’s in the last 10 years is not one of them. Try popularist policies all the time but still can’t keep themselves in the job for any length of time.

I hope so, I truly believe the two party system we have just doesn't work for us anymore. Labour & Cons are too far from the centre ground.

The fact this is the worst government in living memory, and they are still ahead in the polls speaks volumes about Labour.

I'd like to see some more moderate MPs join from all parties. If not, all this will do is split the labour vote and probably strengthen the Tories.

I agree with many of your points 123. Lets be honest though, we've had some cr*p governments haven't we? I still remember being in early school during the winter of discontent. We were sat in the classroom and all the lights went out and the heating went off. No one could do anything, rubbish built up in the streets and you couldn't even get buried. Heath who was another liar on a par with Blair and was as big a calamity as Callaghan so there's plenty to pick from if you're saying this lot are the worst. I don't like this government by the way and like many, really wish a party could come along that meant people voted for it because of what it represented rather than to keep Corbyn out which I think is why many voted for the Tories. Its a blo*dy sad state of affairs but we're not alone are we.

Going back further than me, the first PM I remember is John Major. Maybe I might think differently if I lived during that era.

I thought the Blair government were pretty good. He will forever be remembered for Iraq, but domestically his record was brilliant in my book...

I do agree with you that Tories are in power and are ahead in the polls largely to keep Corbyn out. And yes, it is a sad state of affairs.

Hopefully we can produce something positive out of this God awful Brexit mess we are in and the state of our current politics will change in the future.

There's been far worse than this lot 123 and I don't care for them either but the 70's were grim. 3 day weeks, no power, strikes a plenty, hospitals burning candles due to having no power, mortuaries full as the dead could not be buried, streets piled high with rubbish and every man and his dog on strike. 'Sunny' Jim Callaghan who was PM for a period was quoted as saying 'If I were a younger man I'd emigrate'.

There is no democratic mandate for a no deal Brexit. Which is where we're heading.

Stop hijacking the word 'democracy'. It's not undemocratic to have a democratic vote.
