   Anyway, it’s nice to see that Labour now agrees with George Osborne’s austerity agenda and has abandoned its own rubbish about cuts being too far.

   “For a fundamentsl and irr………..b*******s!

     Which would be a news story if:

     1. You hadn’t swallowed the Daily Mail line whole, and

     2. If that was what Labour had actually said.

     Did the pubs kick out early in Stoke today?

   Yes, yes, yes, but would the bedrooms be appreciated? Would the National Wellbeing Index be enhanced? To what degree would such an initiative contribute to the incentivisation of senior resources in defying the pernicious economic effects of bad weather and the French? And would every customer who benefited want a yacht as well?

   You have to think these things through, you know.

     Electoral prospects for Gary Elsby in Stoke estimated as less than nil (nothing new there then).

   If I had stood in any 43 of the new 44 single member (now there’s a laugh) wards, I would have won the election twice over.
   I chose to stand in he hardest one of all and narrowly lost.
   I’m choosing which Cabinet member ward to stand in over the next few Months.
   The General election is another matter.
   No four weeks campaign for me from now on, oh, no.
   Mine is a 12 Month run in, outspending all three sitting Labour MPs and with a Constituency office in the heart of the City centre.
   I intend to give the care home closing, corrupt torturing party hell.

       Can you give a date when upon hearing of your beloved torturing party, you repaid the annual subscription.

       Bet your election leaflets talk of new hospitals and evil Tories….etc.

         As we haven’t got a new hospital, and I have never mentioned the Conservatives even exist on my election leaflets, never mind call them evil, you are wrong on these things as well as almost everything else you put your name too.

         I have tried to explain to you before, but it is obvious the standards of education in Stoke are even worse than we feared because it hasn’t permeated your thick skull, I know of no incidence of the Labour Party ever endorsing or carrying out torture. If, as you allege with no great deal of evidence, Labour Ministers have done any such thing I would expect them to be hauled in front of the courts and dealt with properly because they would be acting illegally. I see absolutely no reason why millions of trade unionists would need to rethink there membership of the Labour Party because a Minister acted outside of his remit and broke the law.

           ….and Germany’s collective excusal in May/June 1945 was?

             My understanding of the Nuremberg trials was that most of those responsible for ordering the death and torture were executed or given life imprisonment. So, as per usual, your point is cobblers.

               I asked what Germany’s collective excuse was post 1945.
               I did not ask of those nailed for it.
               I specifically ask of what was done on their behalf.
               You can include (if you must) all German businessmen hanged, who never handled a weapon in their lives.
               Good marks are given for Party members living within ash falling distance from Auschwitz/Bergen Belsen.

               Too confusing and incoherent to warrant a reply. Try again when you sober up.
