Wee Jimmy and Agent Cob, what could go wrong?

[andy-hughes]

Two leaders wo comprehensively overestimate their own abilities and intelligence, and the validly of their views, and occupy respective spaces in cloud cuckoo land - I'd agree, it is a perfect alliance.

would Mr Corbyn swallow his Brexit belief in order to make this work?

mushroom - // would Mr Corbyn swallow his Brexit belief in order to make this work? //

Since Mr Corbyn has switched his stance on Brexit so often to suit prevailing wind conditions, it would make a Swiss weather house man giddy, I am sure he can accommodate which ever position he thinks advances his sad and utterly lost cause to be PM one day.

More idiocy. Trying for an alliance by offering the party who have only their abitions for their part of the nation in mind, as many independence votes as they desire as often as they desire until the public get fed up and says 'yes'. It'll be a good day when we've left under the EU's forced choice of no deal, (the utter prattishness of suggesting we can renegotiate a deal if the red lines which define the difference between an acceptable deal and an unacceptable one are dropped !), the countries that comprise our nation realise they aren't daft enough to break away from the union, and we get on with sorting out our nation's new found freedom. Then maybe the Labour party can start putting together some decent social policies instead of desperately trying to make themselves unelectable.

Ambitions

And yet the leader of the Scottish Labour Party has in the past said the Scottish Labour MPs would block the move for a second referendum.

So Mad Dog McDonell would back the SNP over Scottish Labour.

[mushroom25]

SNP has a desire to be divorced from the UK but aligned to the EU. they must know that their independent membership of the EU will be blocked by France and Spain as they want no precedent to be set that Euskadi or Catalunya might seek to follow.

[THECORBYLOON]

In a recent poll of 1,019 adults in Scotland, 47% agreed there should be another referendum on Scottish independence within the next two years and 45% disagreed.

Asked how they would vote in that referendum , 46% said they would vote "Yes" to independence and 43% "No".

[andy-hughes]

I believe that Mr Corbyn's latest proposal underlines the fact that he does not live in the real world.

Mr Corbyn's entire mindset revolves around 'politics' - but in the abstract concept of the word.

He spends his time analysing potential scenarios as though he is playing Monopoly - the money is not real, the outcome is not important, it is simply the playing of the game that takes up his entire waking hours.

That would be no problem if he was resting in an old folks' home, but the tragedy is, he is supposed to the Leader Of Her Majesty's Opposition.

Jezza should move North of the border to be with Nicola then let them have their independence ....job done

[gulliver1]

Think even a better match is our New P/M Dominic Cummins, [ love the way he wears his handbag over his shoulder ] and his Deputy P/m Doris Johnson. Now that is a match made in heaven, what a pair of dip sticks.

So true Andy!

[albaqwerty]

a poll of just over 1000 Scots, well, that sums it up nicely.
Not every Scot votes SNP (they are a minority government backed by the Greens)
Mr Corbyn reminds me of Bob Dylan(?) - blowing in the wind.
I still can't understand why SNP want indy from UK but want to stay tied to EU.

[Old_Geezer]

Because SNP members dislike the English but realise that the SNP members aren't capable of running the country without external help, maybe ? Can't think of any other explanation.

[anneasquith]

Jesse should move north of the border. Why ever would he do that. He’s an English MP .?

And he lives in Islington. Few people who live in Islington know where Potters Bar is, let alone where Scotland is. Apart from Lady Nugee - aka Emily Thornberry, MP, that is. She sends her children to a (partially selective) school there because there are no suitable State schools in Islington. The irony is that the very school her children attend was, until 1971, located half a mile from her house but had to relocate because of the policies of the Labour dominated Inner London Education Authority.

[Old_Geezer]

Presumably he might want to do so to be near his SNP friends.

[Bobbisox1]

Nicola could bestow Scottish citizenship on him and he could take Diane Abbot with him ( in a perfect world)

[spathiphyllum]

Gulliver, aint no one a perfect match but me and you baby.

[anneasquith]

Bobbie, Scotland have no need of your failures.
