Anne Nichols: Same old, same old... blah blah blah
http://anne-nichols-author.blogspot.com/2015/08/same-old-same-old-blah-blah-blah.html
Thursday, 6 August 2015. Same old, same old. blah blah blah. I keep reading comments, from various Labour MPs, that they will not serve in a Cabinet under Jeremy Corbyn as Prime Minister. Personally, I think that's incredibly foolish of them to say so, and assumes that they are going to be asked to so serve! The pinky-blue Labour MPs need to think long and hard about where their true allegiances lie, about the harm they are doing to the people of this country, and whether they are truly representative of...

Anne Nichols: Being a left-wing nuisance is necessary and desirable
http://anne-nichols-author.blogspot.com/2015/08/being-left-wing-nuisance-is-necessary.html
Saturday, 8 August 2015. Being a left-wing nuisance is necessary and desirable. Having that experience helped me to learn such a lot about the history of the Labour Party, from those involved, and what it stood for, and what it had achieved in the years before I was born. I enjoyed long chats with people who had been on the Aldermaston Marches. With people who had been involved with the NHS at its inception. One of the women with whom I had contact whilst working at USDAW was the late Audrey Wise. At Wes...

Anne Nichols: Can you believe it!
http://anne-nichols-author.blogspot.com/2015/08/can-you-believe-it.html
Thursday, 6 August 2015. Can you believe it! Andy Burnham is to pledge that Labour will promise to axe university tuition fees if he becomes the party's leader. So says the BBC. In another comment on the slippery road to political party leadership. This announcement looks like a desperate bid by Burnham to counter the support being given to fellow leadership contender Jeremy Corbyn, who has always opposed such tuition fees, and who voted against their introduction from the outset! Can you believe it!

Anne Nichols: December 2013
http://anne-nichols-author.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, 28 December 2013. BBC Proms: Dr Who Prom broadcast Xmas Day 2013. I was so looking forward to watching the BBC Dr Who Prom on Christmas Day. The snatches of music I'd heard from it on the radio earlier in the year had whetted my appetite and, although it had been broadcast in full of the radio, I wanted to see the TV version with all of the characters from the Dr Who series included. Daleks and Cybermen are not nearly as scary on the radio! Oh how disappointed I was by it! On the big screens fl...

Anne Nichols: Witch-hunting in the Party
http://anne-nichols-author.blogspot.com/2015/08/witch-hunting-in-party.html
Thursday, 6 August 2015. Witch-hunting in the Party. A report on the BBC website. Harriet Harman has written to all Labour MPs asking them to check new members are not trying to skew the party's leadership contest. Each MP has been sent a list of new members from their constituency so they can check for suspicious names. So, Labour MPs are presumably to spend their Summer break whizzing around their constituency checking up on new signups. That will be fun for them! Picture the scene. a knock at the ...

http://anne-nichols-author.blogspot.com/2015/08/re-awakening-sleeping-dragon.html
Saturday, 15 August 2015. Re-awakening the sleeping dragon. Are we nearing the end of Labour Party? If you read some of the doom-sayers and fear-mongerers in the mainstream media you might think that the party, nay the whole world, might implode if the Labour leadership election is won by Jeremy Corbyn rather than one of the other three candidates. But the astonishing support at his rallies throughout the country has reawakened the sleeping dragon in the heart of the Labour Party. Remember too that we ha...

Sunday, 16 August 2015. Lies, damn lies, and newspaper headlines. Today's Daily Mail / Mail on Sunday article. On coffee, which unjustifiably attacked. Laura Alvarez the wife of Labour leadership. Serves to highlight two of the many things which are wrong with the current system. Namely (1) that the global price of commodities is fixed by the stock market not by the producer, and (2) newspapers think they have the right to sling mud at innocent people and get away with it. Headline claims that Cafe Mam.
