The Labour Party leadership election tells us everything we need to know about the state of British politics today, in particular the attitudes of the Westminster criminals and their poodles in the media. It is really scary stuff. This country is really in trouble and can no longer even pretend to approximate to any recognised form of democratic system. It beggars belief that the Labour Party can seriously claim to be a democratic organisation or have the audacity to appeal to the British people as a candidate for government. They are an utter disgrace. I have been looking at the Labour Party rules for this election and they were established by a special conference of the Party on 1st March last year in London. At this conference the new rules were passed with 86.29% in favour and 13.71% against.
One of the changes that was instituted was the addition of registered supporters and the new rules state that
vi. Votes shall be cast in a single section, by Labour Party members, affiliated supporters and registered supporters.
The Labour website explains this change as
Labour supporters who are on the UK electoral register can sign up to be a Registered Supporter. Like Affiliated Supporters, people can sign up to be a Registered Supporter at support.labour.org.uk or by completing and returning a sign up form which can be downloaded from members.labour.org.uk/campaignresources or ordered from shop.labour.org.uk
It costs £3 to become a registered supporter. An affiliated supporter is someone who is a registered member of an organisation that is affiliated to the Labour Party, such as a trade union member. When the submissions closed today it was revealed that there are 610,753 people eligible to vote in this election of which 121,295 are people who paid the £3 registration fee.
Jeremy Corbyn did not make these rules, he has not manipulated or broken the rules and he gained the necessary 33 votes of the Parliamentary Labour Party allowing him to stand as a candidate. He did not introduce the concept of the registered voter, nor did he set the £3 fee. In spite of all this, four Labour MPs are threatening legal action if the vote is not stopped and there is absolute fury amongst the Labour establishment and the British press because, by following all the rules, by acting with scrupulous honesty, Corbyn is polling a possible 57% at the moment which means he would be elected on the first ballot without the need for any transference of second or third preferences. However, despite doing everything properly he is being portrayed as a demon who will destroy the Party and consign it to oblivion. Why? Because he is a leftie and that is the ultimate sin in modern Britain. If Corbyn was a paedophile, a rapist or financially corrupt, the entire Westminster establishment would harness all of its power and influence to protect and support him because that is what they do and we have endless evidence of this, but he is far worse than any of these things, he is against the free market and therefore must be destroyed.
Now at the risk of boring you, I repeat, it is a matter of complete indifference to me who wins this election, but I must point out that the threat of legal action comes from people who cannot accept that the winner is not the person they wanted and therefore they are not prepared to allow the result to stand. And this is even before a vote is counted. Not one of these people raised the issue of registered voters until the polls began to show the possibility of a Corbyn victory. They are an utter disgrace, and these are our elected representatives.
As an aside to all this drama, I watched an interview on Channel Four news with one of Corbyn's opponents, Liz Kendall, and all I will say is that if that is what is being presented as a serious contender for the leadership of a girls guide group never mind a political party then the UK is doomed. She is a genuine abomination of a politician, if I hadn't known who she was I would have thought I was watching a spoof, she is just awful. I have a Yorkshire Terrier who knows more about politics than she does. I feel that the Labour Party is doomed, and that it deserves it. People like that have no place in politics, but I also feel that they are what the British deserve. It's only a question of time before we are asked to vote for a British version of Donald Trump. You have been warned
