 Much as I hate to have Thatcher on this piece that quote says it all Op-ed: It's Wednesday and it's PMQs if your blood pressure can stand it. Jeremy Corbyn wins when he asks Cameron about ESA cuts and tries for real answers but simply gets Cameron spinning like a whipping top. Cameron refers to flawed figures claiming people are better off. He says the Tories are working on clearing the deficit and the Tories do not want to leave debt for the next generation. Well his next generation will inherit a great deal from the Cameron pot when he leaves this earth but kids of poorer families will not be so lucky; they will not get the financial head start in life he did. But we are back to noisy theatrics and Jeremy Corbyn is spot on when he says to Cameron it is time to leave the theatrics and share with us all how the black hole Osborne has created will be filled. We are back on the attack Labour theme but this time it is not just pre 2010 he uses information garnered probably from 'they work for us' and those nasty moles operating inside of Labour or spin doctors or fiction writers to hit at the heart of the party. Cameron has already used the fact that some Labour MPs voted with the government and picks to pieces the party opposite because of that and some sort of list. He is helped along by the damning list of which Labour party MPs support Corbyn and which are hostile. ( The list can be viewed at the end of this report) Showing all his bully boy charm Cameron is like a cat that has got the cream or is that a Cameron with a pig's head? So Mr Corbyn is left fighting a hard battle taking Cameron to task due to Labour lightweights. House Speaker John Bercow is back to weak leadership and too few calls to order. A Tory raises a question about rooting out anti-Semitism which is obviously a pointed attack on Labour and its main MPs. Having taken the feed from that MP Cameron it into an attack on Labour claiming there is a rise in anti-Semitism in the Labour party. That is a weak and flawed argument spun by the Tories after a diet of leaks by right wing members of the Labour party. For the record supporting the BDS movement and criticising Israel for building a wall that cripples another country while continuing with an illegal land grab is not anti-Semitic. Those like Luke Akehurst standing for the Labour party NEC, posting newsletters online for all to see that talk about the hard left in Labour and a rise in anti-Semitism, appear to want Labour to fail or be out of office for decades but in truth they just want Jeremy Corbyn ousted. Akehurst has links to the so-called Bitterites that hope to turn the Labour party back a few decades to Blair politics and policies. They look at his landslide victory in 1997 but forget a fair few facts on that score; for some it is because they were only kids or young people back then. They fail to recognise that in 1997 the people had finally had enough of crippling Tory politics that begun under Thatcher the milk snatcher. For floating voters, and some hard hit Tories, the final nail was in the Tory coffin and that is what will happen again. Push people so far and they make a ripple; push them to the edge and they wake up and use their vote. Does Cameron still have confidence in the Chancellor asks a young SNP MP but all he gets is an 'of course' added to wild claims about Osborne's record. The Nasty Party with chief nasty David Cameron at the helm is in full flow as the Scottish people are once again told how they would have been independent soon had they voted to leave the union and what a disaster that would have been. Yes keep it up Dave and next time around the Scottish people will vote as one and run to the hills. That tack has a short term bonus for Cameron as it guarantees more people in Scotland vote SNP which was Labour country at one time. Cameron betrays his alleged one nation principles over and over again. In more obscene party politics we briefly touch on the Queen's 90th birthday without any details of what that will cost us all. Rundown Overall it was a rowdy and childish PMQs with shouty Tories who show they are on the defensive. One thing it highlights is politicians who are good speakers and have good script writers and a team backing them all the way can talk the talk but may not be good politicians. The Tory game plan appears to be shouting as loud as you can while waving your arms and wagging fingers. Well as they say empty vessels make the most noise. The shouting seems to be worse since Mr Corbyn became party leader in September 2015; that could be as he asked for a kinder, gentler politics to fit with his style. In the end Corbyn will shine given some Labour backbench support and people who tune in will see a Tory party on the back burner picking holes in all and sundry to cover their tracks. Some members of the Tory party show their ageist tendencies when they giggle as Corbyn uses a phrase of my generation 'fine and dandy' but that is not a good look for a supposed one nation government. But slick Labour MPs who can also talk and spin take note. Neil Kinnock was, or so I was told when I wrote a piece about him, a brilliant speaker but he did not gel with the voting public. Kinnock failed on many fronts when he tried to become PM scuppered in part by the Tory propaganda machine. To win the next election Labour need to do one thing and that is support the elected party leader rather than run off at tangents splitting the party. Unless these backstabbers are simply as many claim Red Tories wanting their own cushy number and my way or the highway politics they should work uniting the party. False flags being used by Cameron and his government should not be given out by those who claim to be Labour supporters and certainly not by those standing for the party's NEC. Tory party credibility is shot and now is the time. But if Mr Corbyn and his shadow chancellor are not supported they are being set up to fail and many people will never forgive or forget that. THE LIST The list contains at last one spelling mistake highlighted below. If you look at the list some of the assessments could be true but I doubt that Ed Miliband is a Corbyn hostile; far from it. So the list may have been created from info received via news reports, labour leaks, twitter streams, other social media and more. It could be fabricated and aimed at undermining the Labour Party and dividing supporters, MOs and members. It has all the hallmarks of a childish Etonian prank, you like stuffing your dick in the mouth of a dead pig. Probably best ignored then. Labour loyalty list supplied by person or persons unknown.

Thank you for your very comprehensive and perfect advice. I wonder whether that over-covered referendum is not already instrumental to divert the voters from the local election. The Tories turned the it around with their lies about Labour's economy and are they doing it now with the referendum for the voters not to take the local election seriously which they should because it would crack the Tories if the seats turn Labour.

The important thing to remember about the Bitterites is that many of them are being lobbied by corporate interests, and many others are looking forward to lucrative careers when they get bored of this whole politics lark. Those sources of income rely on them being able to toe a pro-corporate line in Parliament. What they DON'T rely on is Labour being in power.

Small point, but as you do point out that there's a spelling error in the list, the word used by people who promote and commit the aggressive expansion into Palestinian land to describe those that oppose it is 'anti-Semitic', not 'anti-Semetic'.
