For about a decade, News Corp oversaw mass phone-hacking of mobile/cell phones in the UK. This included a murdered woman's phone causing her parents to think she was alive. News Corp is the parent company of the WSJ. Any questions?

As someone else here said, Burnham is barely Social Democratic. Even Clement Attlee fell way short of an actual Socialist government. He did a lot of good things but we would have gone further than Labour is comfortable with.

You don't make people better off by making them poorer. Oh, and this isn't socialism by the way, it is in fact the opposite of that. It's just that you're so right wing anything left of your opinions becomes socialism. Next you'll be asking us if the Nazis were socialists.

No he isn't, and no he doesn't. His party's in power, he can do what the fuck he likes - but go socialist? You'd think so considering the party's origin but they're only a couple of steps left of the Republicans now!

It truly baffles me as the US should know this! It owns its postal service and passenger rail services (Amtrak). The states run their buses and own water. The state DOTs are powerful organisations that easily force through road building and widening schemes. And we all know the US is not socialist!

Murdoch media destroyed the world, truly poisoned propaganda. They protect and coddle pedophiles and crooks, because they’re fundamentally anti-democracy.

If only. For Americans generally, words like “socialism” and “communism” have no objective meaning. They are merely random insults. When the Wall Street Journal says “unabashedly socialist,” it’s like a three year old calling the neighbour kid a “stoopy-poopyhead.”

Is Norway a socialist country? No. It is a social democracy. So, why are you painting a social democracy policy found in Norway as socialist when the UK looks to implement similar. It’s wilful misrepresentation.

He's a fucking wishy-washy centrist and always has been. That's why actual socialists laughed in his face when he challenged Corbyn for the leadership. He won this gig by default. He's as socialist as Starmer, just slightly less of a malicious, mendacious, personality vacuum cunt. Slightly.

Yeah that isn't trie in the slightest. This Labour government is further right than the Tories or Thatcher ever were. Follow the actual policies, their function and results not the headlines from entirely useless media orgs.

I think this is pushing it. It isn't socialist to want a Care service for all elderly patients unless you deem the NHS to be socialist? In which case vast majority of people in the UK support the NHS! He is trying to right the wrongs of 40 years of Neo liberalism - that is centre left not socialism.
