for the fishy 3 line whip

Quoted from Cod Cheeks

Apologies, because I'm not too much of a regular on the forum so I may have missed something but has the 3 line whip been removed from boycotting last nights tournament?
Only I was there last night as I have been on every other occasion and there seemed to be a lot more people.

I think quite a few more went, realising it’s safe to do so, now that Nick Dale has confiscated my sand filled gloves.  

But I’m saving up my dole money for a new pair. And Cleethorpes beach has an endless supply of sand.

So watch your back fella. Watch your back 😉

I don't know why you have to drag politics into this  but Momentum are doing a pretty good job, on behalf of the Labour Party, of casting aspersions, digging up dirt and bullying, with the threat of de-selecting Labour MP's.

Whereas Johnson's government has just actually deselected more than 20 of their own MPs including former ministers for daring to vote for a course they thought best for the country. How many times did Johnson vote against May, again? Surely he should have been booted out of the Conservative Party as well earlier this year?

Amazing that anybody should mention threats to deselect Labour MPs (none of which have occurred or can occur under current rules) yet completely ignore the right-wing lurch and implosion of the Conservatives.

Quoted from 137

There never was a 3-line whip, nor any attempt by Fishy posters to force anyone to boycott the competition.

Many posters expressed their unease with the format, indicated that they intended to boycott these matches,
and gave their reasons - hoping to persuade others to do likewise. Persuasion is not bullying.

The accusation from the club that fans were being bullied by the Fishy was probably an attempt to darken
the reputation of the Fishy. JF was being castigated here. It's a standard right-wing tactic when you can't
win an argument (which is usual) to cast aspersions/throw dirt at the people making the argument.

To put it simply: if this cup format is a success, it'll be C teams next...

What the intercourse has the "right-wing" got to do with it?

Why the reference to the right? The left do exactly the same

I'm no fan of the Tories but wouldn't de-selection only happen at an election?

Unless the government has lied (quite possible), they have said that the 'rebels' will be deselected, come what may. Now, a number of them such as Clarke are stepping down in any case, but the others are effectively being deselected.

I'm not a Labour Party member, but I understand that the current rules do not allow for deselection of sitting MPs. That's what Momentum are agitating for to try and get rid of the more ardently right-wing Blairites. When you think how many Labour MPs have done little but vote with the government and attack their own leadership over the past few years (mounting a couple of failed coup attempts as well, of course), you can see why some local parties might want to be able to get rid of them! Just as long as you don't get a far left takeover through entryism. Something they were worried about in the 80s but which anecdotally may have actually occurred with the Tories. Reports that many of Johnson's votes came from relatively recent joiners who were previously UKIP/Brexit Party voters.

Almost as thick as people hijacking a football thread to spout their political beliefs. I think there just might be a non footy thread or a thousand forums for those of you (from either side) who wish to share their political wisdom.  So can you all just take it elsewhere.

Be fair. He stated a fact.

But best kept for the other board.
