what do you call yourself politically

[Salty]

How about a Constitutionalist? I believe in the Constitution of the United States, which is supposed to be the supreme law of the land. It sets out a Federalist form of government and specifies the powers of said Federal government .

I am a registered member of the NY Conservative Party - (we hold line C) and since
NY has the fusion law- as a "third" party we carry additional weight than third parties
in most every other states/commonwealths do.

None of the above - Christian socialist - but don't associate me with political parties calling themselves "Christian socialist." I support Jeremy Corbyn as one whose general policies are intended to be "for the many, not the few." There are of course specific antichristian policies that I cannot endorse - abortion & multisexism - but that goes for all parties.

Before Corbyn became the Labour leader I took position 3, & voted Liberal, Independent or Green. I certainly could not vote for the war mongering policies of the Labour leader Blair, who with Bush was responsible for the invasion of Iraq an the basis of lies. Blair's name was often mis-spelled as a result. I hoped that a Conservative led government with Liberal support, as from 2010, would lead to centre policies. However the Liberals supported the Conservative austerity measures that have resulted in extreme hardship, homelessness & deaths.

I've already voted for our local Labour candidate by post. I know her well as she sings in the community choir with me & a dozen others. Hopefully Corbyn will secure an absolute majority or be able to form a government with Scottish Nationalist support.

Well Bother Ian. I cannot agree with you. The austerity was due to the financial crisis under the Blair/Brown. Remember the Labour chancellor left a none saying "There is no money." You will also remember, I hope, that the banks had to be bailed out by millions, and some are still in debt. to the country.
On the news, a day or so ago, they said the Pound was rising in anticipation of a Conservative victory. I had noticed that on 29th November when we went to Calais for the day, We got slightly more Euros for our Pound than recent visits. 1.17 compared with 1.16 and 1.15, on our card. If Corbyn gets in, the pound will crash with his mad spending plans. Then inflaton will rise.
"For the many not the few." is Corbyn's slogan. It will be "For the Unions, not the Many."
As a commuter to London for many years I can rememember how bad the n ationalised railways were, and Corbyn wants to nationalise them again.

The unions are trying their best to wreck the railways with continual strikes. The unions destroyed many industries, the shipbuilders, the dockers, the car companies, the miners. The company I worked for closed down due to continual strikes, then opened up with completely new staff.

Corbyn says he will give new power to the unions.

I try not to get involved in US politics, ours ore enough of a problem.
The most influential leader of a politrical party in UK is Nigel Farage (not fromage as someone called him) he said his party wont have a manifesto as the public consider politacal manifestos as lies. He is the only leader of a party who is honest. He wants one thing, to get us out of Europe.

From what I've seen and heard, Farage seems rather refreshing.

 

[David Kent]

From what I've seen and heard, Farage seems rather refreshing.

Farage is the only honest one. He has made it plain from the beginning that he does not want political office, he only wants to get us out of Europe. After the referendum , he thought his job was done so stood down. That was a mistake. So some weeks before the European elections Nigel Farage formed the Brexit Party. They topped the poll with the most European MPs.

The UK election is an extraordinary, potentially disastrous result - voting for a proven liar, racist & coward, with seriously divisive policies. The prophet Habakkuk prayed for God to restore Judah as it had turned away from the Law of God, from upright & godly living. God's reply - "I'm sending the Babylonians to deal with the nation." Nevertheless God has an encouraging message - "Live by faith & keep faithful yourself."

We are living at a time when so many of God's Laws have been nationally rejected. Not just laws concerning our attitude to God, but also dividing families, approving murder & adultery, theft from the poor, racism, gambling & lottery funding.

We must stand as the prophets & their supporters did after the Chaldean invasion. Learn from Jeremiah & Daniel & the others. Pray for Gospel preachers that they may stand firm. And for godly folk, some of whom have already lost their jobs because of their honesty.

Jesus is LORD! God commands all men, everywhere to REPENT!

Oh no!

How distressing for you today:

UK General Election win is Conservative Party's biggest since 1987 (Margaret Thatcher)

You have got to be talking about Corbyn, right?

 

[Adonia]

Oh no!

Let us hope that this is a harbinger for our 2020 elections. That the wacko left will be decisively defeated once and for all and that true liberals can then take their Democrat Party back.

 

[Covenanter]

You have got to be talking about Corbyn, right?

Of course not. In all the interviews Corbyn answered questions courteously without evading issues. And regarding his alleged antisemitism, according to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz -

Corbyn is not an anti-Semite. His real sin is to fight against injustice in the world, including the version Israel perpetrates. (Gideon Levi)

OTOH Johnson blustered & evaded, slandering political opponents.

He's taken his mistress into 10 Downing St while pursuing a divorce & has a history of racism from his regular political newspaper columns. One thing he was accidentally honest about was said his Brexit deal was "fantastic."

 

[David Kent]

The pound has soared, and the stockmarket rose at the news. If corbyn had one with his lies aboujt what he would do, they both would have crashed.

My wife's father was the prospective Labour candidate for the Yorkshire seat, later won by David Blunkett. in 1947. If he had not had to leave Yorshire for his health he would almost certainly have been elected as the MP. He died just before Christmas 1948.
My wife says it is not the same Labour Party as it was then.

 

[David Kent]

Of course not. In all the interviews Corbyn answered questions courteously without evading issues. And regarding his alleged antisemitism, according to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz -

The London Jews didn't think so, if those I saw on the TV were anything to go by.
He was a backer of the IRA and other terrorist organisations.
His spending plans would have ruined the country had he been able to implement them.
My wife's cousin who came from the same socialist background as her and now lives in Scotland and voted for the SNP.
Great result for Scotland, though.

 

[Revmitchell]

I personally call myself "hey you" i never answer though. Im kind of stuck up.

Right wing, Left wing of what? Depends on which way one is facing. For total goverment or no goverment. For being enslaved by goverment or have real liberty. And there are other extremes that we might or might not want at all.

 

[Revmitchell]

I deny that there is any such thing as a right wing. What is called right wing is really just what was from the start or the founding of this country. Progressivism/Liberalism/Socialism/Communism (its all the same thing) is to the left of that but the founding of this country is the standard by which to judge where one is at. The so called right wing is not right of itself.

The moderates are nothing but liberal/socialism/communism/progressivism light. Either way it is a move away from the founding of this country.

When it comes to British politics, I'd favor the SNP. But they're a batch of republicans. I'm a Jacobite and favor the return of the Stuarts to the Scottish throne. The Jacobite heir at the moment is the Duke of Bavaria.

Depends which Jews - Jewish voice for Labour or Labour friends of Israel. Many Jews support Corbyn who has been consistently supportive of Jewish interests. Those who accuse him of antisemitism do so because he is concerned for the Palestinian people who live under Israeli domination. His meetings with so-called "terrorists" have been to seek to understand grievances & help towards peace - as he did successfully in Northern Ireland.

IMO the triumph of Johnson was a triumph for racism - against Europeans & other immigrants. Ignoring the fact that low paid immigrants perform a vital service in health & elderly care & agriculture. Corbyn has been consistently slandered & libelled & sadly too many people believed the gutter press.

I hope I'm wrong & everything will be wonderful, but this election is, I fear, a judgment against a country that has rejected God & his laws. See Habakkuk for the judgment of a godless country & take the advice he received. The just will live by faith.

Proof bro?
The leader of the SNP is a Lesbian.

 

[David Kent]

There was a film, years ago, 1959,, called Left Right and Centre, with Peter Sellars and Ian Carmichael, a political comedy.

 

[Particular]

I suppose I fall somewhere along the lines of a french man when sir arthur shows up outside the castle...
In other words, I am fed up with politics.

 

[Squire Robertsson]

Proof of what, that the Duke of Bavaria is the Jacobite heir? I suggest you take a look at the wiki article on the Jacobite succession. The Bavarian claim comes through James II's daughter Henrietta. As for the leader of the SNP baing a lesbian, it's another nail in the coffin.
