Normally, I'd avoid watching it like the plague. But with this one... it could make for interesting viewing.

Huge flags. Massive flags. That's all that can save them now. Every member wearing flags too, even their underwear.

I thought that was Starmer's trick, having a couple of union jack's behind him, and sticking the words "Great British" in front of every policy.

Hopefully by next year Labour conference attendees will have learnt the words to our terribly complex national anthem and they won't have to be given crib sheets.

It is because he would be too tempted to say "I told you so" about Truss economic disaster

Is that your great retort? Make sure they don’t need crib sheets next year? Wow it’s like I’ve read the contents of a Daily Mail article. Can’t respond to good ideas, so I’ll nitpick at their inability to know the national anthem by heart. Have you ever heard of hymn sheets? Duh.

If someone is an atheist or anti Monarchist it is difficult to sing our National Anthem

If they need a crib sheet for our incredibly simple national anthem either (i) they've probably never sung it before because they inhabit a little North London Britain hating bubble or (ii) they are too thick to remember a few simple lines. Either is possible.

Good point. We should ignore the Tories and concentrate on Labour. Even in a thread about the Conservative party conference.

This. Plus renewed attacks on:

Immigrants

The EU

Poor people

Corbyn

You know, all the real reasons the country is in a fucking mess. Absolutely nothing to do with 12 years of Tory rule.

Okay. I was being silly. But the point is, in every thread about the Tories. All you do is avoid the issue and post "what about something/someone else not related".

I'm interested in diversity of opinion, especially on the topic being discussed. But the opinion isn't that interesting if it's nothing to do with the topic.

Although you clearly didn't.

Do you have any views on the Conservative party conference? You seem to imply that you have a view, and that it might be different from other people's.

No, I might attend a fringe event but I'm not a member and they don't interest me particularly.

The Labour conference just looked like a meeting of the North Korean politburo with lots of performing monkeys jumping up to applaud every few minutes, sometimes even at the right time.

Well they could panic, and behave like Johnson did, changing his policies every few days to suit what he felt was the "zeitgeist", and it got him nowhere. If they do that it will equally get them nowhere. Either they think their plan will work or they don't. If they do then they need to stick it out. The alternative is failure anyway. The Tories spend too much time listening to people who will never vote for them.

That would require a level of competence!

This is a last ditch throw of the dice by a morally bankrupt Tory party who are out of ideas and can see their time in Govt is going to come to an end. They have c.2 years to line their pockets and those of their cronies/supporters.

Tax cuts to the rich will be funded through a reduction in public services which almost universally means that the Tory government set to cut benefits to the poor to fund tax cuts for the rich.

Anyway back on topic. A tory conference with a recently elected PM who doesn't have the backing of the majority of her MPs amd who is marking the bounce of popularity that comes with being a new PM by seeing labour take a record lead in the polls while the economy tanks against a soundtrack of the entire country ridiculing her performance on local radio yesterday, yeah this is goung to be more fun than usual

Now that would be comedy gold. It's a measure of how far things have gone that, were he to turn up within a mile of the conference, he'd be the one making the news - without even having to say anything.
