Haha, Corbyn and momentum rolling out the glorious NHS as a deflect point. So bloody obvious. Do they think voters are stupid?

From Guido - redacted docs refer to cheaper drugs and DO NOT mention the NHS.

The whole story has been created by a racist Labour crank:

I must admit, I did Hmm at the chlorinated chicken, it made me wonder, that if this scoop is so huge, they probabywouldn’t need to throw that in...

However, I haven’t read it/articles examining it yet. So I retain my ‘neutrality’ for now. (that’s for you Corbs 🖕).

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 27/11/2019 10:50

Live the meme dusty, fine work as always! Xxxx

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 27/11/2019 10:51

Sorry about the random kisses... lol

SingingLily · 27/11/2019 10:54

Cheers, Dusty, it's perfect. Love the faces!

Holly's right. Dinnae worry, as an old friend used to say, the MSM will have another field day about it tomorrow. They'll be all over it, forensically debunking it. Don't forget, he's had a go at Libby Weiner and Laura K and he and Batty Gardiner tried to shut them down. That equates to shutting down the press. The media really really doesn't like that.

Something Jezbollah never learned from his pals in the IRA. Tell them nothing. Every piece of information you give them is a gift because you've just opened up another line of attack. British soldiers, if captured, gave their name, rank and serial number. Big mistake. That's three pieces of information you've just handed them. Jezza is the gift that keeps on giving.

Chin up, Comrades, and Solidarity!

Oh, Flaming Nora, the postman's just delivered another rainforest from the LibDems. 😤

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 27/11/2019 10:55

I wonder who leaked this, it’s weird...

Saucery · 27/11/2019 10:59

Well, I’m gobsmacked that it turns out those 150 Evil Billionaires aren’t going to pay for all the things Labour want to do if they get in. Astounded

HateIsNotGood · 27/11/2019 11:25

LibDem leaflet also just delivered by postman - addressed to first time voter DS18. I wonder why they thought it better to send it to DS and not me......

BelleHathor · 27/11/2019 11:28

Thanks Singing for being the new landlady looking forward to the new snacks!
Epic it is weird who's leaking the documents surely they must have signed the official secrets Act so hopefully GCHQ is on it. On a serious note it does underline how dangerous Corbyn and his cohorts are for national security. If I was one of the other five eyes countries I would be making plans to block UK participation because Labour cannot be trusted. That makes all of us less safe!

SingingLily · 27/11/2019 11:32

2017 documents, Belle. I have my suspicions but can't say for fear of libel.

Anyway, just to cheer you all up, here is today's Telegraph cartoon. I can't wait for tomorrow!

Exactly 2017 documents from former elite leader the Maybot. What I don't understand is how is lying about who was in charge and when the documents were made is any different to the "lying" £350 million on a 🚌🚌 🤔

howabout · 27/11/2019 14:06

More power to your elbow SingingLily. Smile
SNP land correspondent signing in. Brew Been busy with rl but now distracting myself from one teen irl in my ear and the other on my FB.

Mrs Howabout and Mr Somethingelseentirely have now voted and its in the post. Disappointingly no Monsterravinglooney to distract Mr S and no Scottish Socialist to distract Mrs H. Boris is free to do his worst.

Grannie lives in a Scottish Tory marginal. She says her Labour Party literature actually advised her to vote Tory to stop the SNP.

The SNP got told off by the Court of Session for lying about Head Girl Jo. Grannie likes Head Girl Jo for all the reasons I dislike her - clearly still got the chip on my shoulder from endless comparisons with the "good" girls. Grin

DH and I will lose out if Labour get in due to loss of £250 marriage allowance and no increase to NI threshold of £400 once fully rolled out. If we both worked it would be 2 lots of NI. So no, it is not just those on £80k. I wouldn't mind if they were proposing to spend it on those who need it rather than blanket public sector pay rises - my DD3's school has 50% + pupils in the most deprived postcode category - her teachers are already paid far more on average than the parents of their pupils.

I am doubtful about Andrew's dividend income claim because I haven't seen anything proposing scrapping ISA wrappers. However by the time corporation tax rates are hiked there will be no dividend income or capital gains to tax so it's somewhat academic.

howabout · 27/11/2019 14:20

In other news re Gove vs Stormzy
DD2 (age 17) just said "who's Stormzy" - guess he's past it already Sad

SingingLily · 27/11/2019 14:24

Glad you found us, Howabout. We need all the sanity checks we can get from SNPLand.

That's staggering advice from your Grannie's local Labour Party. We live in strange times. I see the Conservative candidate for Argyll & Bute has pointed out that Wee Nippy's determination to use the scrapping of Trident will cost the area something in the region of 11,000 jobs directly or indirectly because...Faslane. It would have been fascinating to hear A&G's sitting MP speak up for the local economy. Yep, he's SNP too. People -v- ideology.

Your DD - tell her I think she's great!

Anyway, I'm back from the suppliers with a few new additions to the menu and range of free bar snacks.

Chip butties and fishfinger barm cakes are now available along with the ever popular bacon rolls.
For those on a pre-Christmas diet and wishing to be strictly Corbz-free, granola bars and crispy seaweed bites.
For the nut-intolerant, a bumper supply of Fruit Loops with plenty of bowls on the bar.

It's not a wide choice but the supplier promises things will look clearer after 12 December.

WTF is it with chlorinated chicken. I ate it for 10 years in the US. Delicious. 🐥

Limer · 27/11/2019 15:29

Afternoon everyone, did someone mention fishfinger barms? A new thread already, lots to catch up on!

2 weeks today and the campaigning will almost be over - thank god. I just want to get on with the Brexit process. Roll on 13th December.

Jillyhilly Weird isn't it. Everyone quite rightly raves about the fantastic food when they visit the US.

Enb76 · 27/11/2019 16:07

WTF is it with chlorinated chicken. I ate it for 10 years in the US. Delicious.

I'm taking this at face value.

It's not the fact that the chicken is chlorinated, it's that by allowing chlorination you are able to keep your chickens in worse conditions than we currently allow in the UK. Welfare standards are pretty good here.

howabout · 27/11/2019 16:08

Just caught up with Andrew vs JC. I honestly don't think JC wanted me to vote for him. He sounded focused on moving the debate leftwards making it easier for Boris to move even more fiscally expansionary post Brexit and to prevent Labour centrists re-emerging once he has retired to his allotment.

He also looked tempted to offer to front the Leave campaign in a 2nd Ref and didn't bother to pretend Labour's proposed new deal would be Leave.

He seemed pretty aware of the glaring holes and inequities in the tax policy and therefore not prepared to defend them.

The other stuff is just white noise now sadly but speaks to the wider issues with identity politics which is a defining problem for the Left. Jenny Kleeman nailed it last night. Once Labour starts appointing itself as the judge of deserving minorities worthy of assistance then there is an obvious issue for everyone else.

howabout · 27/11/2019 16:14

Enb there was an issue recently in Scotland. A local school wanted to source its chicken via a local organic farm. It couldn't because the Local Authority wide contract is with a company importing chicken from Thailand. I am not convinced they have higher chicken welfare standards than the US.

Also don't let Rick Stein fool you on average farming practices in France.

Very very sad to read about the death of Gary Rhodes. He taught me how to cook with panache. Sad

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 27/11/2019 16:15

So, sky are saying there is no ‘smoking gun’ Re; the NHS super scoop.... I have been out for several hours today, so haven’t caught up fully, any other comments? From other sources?

The press are clearly not impressed with Gardiner shutting down their questions today. All the hallmarks of a Trumpian approach to the press, as we have previously discussed. Well done Corbs, there’s only so far the momental army can take you. If you keep pissing off the press, they will crucify you.

bellinisurge · 27/11/2019 16:19

Do you have scampi fries in this pub?. Partial to scampi fries.
I need to comfort eat.

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 27/11/2019 16:21

You can share mine Bellini, I think the Landlady is at the suppliers! 😉
