The Tragic Thinking The Left Indulges In.

A simple one today, a video of Paul Mason interviewed by France 24 after the election. This demonstrates the degree of lack of understanding by the left.

In this, Mason actually manages to call people in Northern towns outright racists but then goes on to say the only way that Labour can beat the Tories is by an alliance with the centre left and by offering northern voters "something" but can't actually say what that might be.

He seems to fail to note that it was the likes of him that drove Labour away from the centre left to the hard left, exactly the position that prevents any alliance with the centre left because the Limp Dim's simply won't do business with them and even the SNP will only do so if it means independence.

There's a fundamental failure of any coherent logic, how is the hard left going to compromise to the Limp Dims when the entire purpose of Corbyn and the party electoral changes is to prevent any form of centrism.

Apparently there's a new "English Nationalism" which is unacceptable, but Irish, Welsh and Scottish nationalism is absolutely fine.

The fact that the English have to put up with these other nationalists who are never called out for their failure to accept democratic vote after democratic vote or their bigotry and that seems absolutely fine.

The one thing that really cheers me up is that following these idiots will ensure that Labour never gets into power and in ten years might not exist.
