Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
Quote:
Lord Watts, who was the MP for St Helens North for 18 years until May 2015, said working people needed a “practical” Labour Party.
He told the House of Lords yesterday: “My advice to my own party leadership is that they should take less notice of the London-centric, hard-left political class who sit around in their £1million mansions, eating their croissants at breakfast and seeking to lay the foundations for a socialist revolution.
“It is not the job of the Parliamentary Labour Party to sit around developing ultra-left-wing policies that make it feel good
“It is its job and responsibility to come forward with policies that will help us to win the next general election.”
Laying into Momentum, the campaign group formed out of Corbyn’s leadership campaign, he finished his point by adding; “For those who do not want to take on that task, can I suggest that they join a society in which they can enjoy sitting around having a philosophical debate about the meaning of socialism?”
