Strike rate of 63 <| sep |> I don ' t see how that is relevant . These types of comments prevents real discussion and it is disappointing . <| sep |> the Labour Party in its willingness to stand up for our record when in power over the last six years has persistently made us look like fucking wallies in the eyes of the public . It ' s fucking infuriating . This is the one thing that seems to unite centerleft parties globally . Actually being farsuperior at running the economy , but always are painted as incompetent and unable to defend our record . I have a theory on why it is . It ' s that whenever Tories get into power , the media just expects them to be absolute fucking cunts , so when May or Cameron or Bush or Harper or Abbott do something fucking stupid or absolutely fucking awful , it ' s a nonnews story , why George Bush saying he went to war with Iraq because god told him too in a dream isn ' t a news story because we expect Bush to have the intellect of a fucking child . Yet someone on the centerleft has a policy that doesn ' t go right or they say something sort of stupid and they get pilloried by the media and it ' s brought up for YEARS after the fact . We can all probably name a time when Labour did something not even that bad , yet the media acted like the world was falling down and constantly brought it up for fucking years , but when the Tories do the exact same thing or even to a far worse degree , crickets chirp . I think the honest truth is , the media just has a crazy double standard between Tories and Centerleft parties based largely on subconscious biases . We can ' t effectively fight that even Corbyn would easily be an economic step up from May because the media just doesn ' t give a shit when the Tories fuck up and we will always have minor mistakes in the past thrown in our face by the Tories and the Media to show how incompetent we are .
