JOE POWELL TACKLES THE DAME!

The Dame gave Joe a ticking off for not making more of the earning part of his plans rather than just the spending.


Immediately, Joe answered the Dame correcting her.

She is delighted to publish his response here.

This blog and THINK are important to the community.... something Joe understands. However, if the Dame thinks he is backsliding she will say so.

This is Joe's response....and there are some good ideas.


Dame, we have launched an ambitious plan to support small businesses which I hope is of interest:


  1. Legislate to tackle late payments: Unlocking £20 billion in unpaid invoices
  2. Scrap business rates: And replace it with a system that is fairer for bricks and mortar businesses
  3. Revitalise our high streets: Tackling anti-social behaviour and powers to take over empty shops
  4. Boosting small business exports: Removing the barriers to export with clear information and support
  5. A new direction for skills: With Technical Excellence Colleges connected to local economic needs
  6. Get Britain building again: By speeding up the planning system and unblocking the grid
  7. Make Britain a clean energy super power: For cheaper bills and greater energy security
  8. The best place to start up and scale up: With better access to finance and more spinouts from universities
  9. A fair chance at public contracts: With guaranteed shortlisting for smaller firms

All the best,

Joe Powell
Labour Parliamentary Candidate for Kensington & Bayswater

    I think Joe Powell will share up very nicely. I am sure that he will learn and take on what the Dame says unlike Felicity Buchan MP and her predecessor.

    1. May the grace of our Lord, Jesus Christ,
      with the Fellowship of the Trots, most militant,
      Return Emma Dent Coad to parliament,
      with a humbleness that is truly edifying. Amen.

    1. Continued from 17.59 above.......

      Powell will be better than the odious Dent Coad. Voting for her would be daft because she will be in opposition. At least Powell has a chance of being a backbench MP in the Party of Government. He should be able to influence the development of policy for the benefit of the people of Kensington. Contrast this with Dent Coad who won't be able to offer voters in Kensington any policies because she will be, if returned to parliament, an independent leftist in opposition. It is unlikely that Labour will heed anything she might have to say given the way that she has behaved since being told she is not welcome on the Labour benches in parliament. The only thing that Emma Dent Coad will be able to offer voters is opposition to proposed measures based on her ultra left, Corbynistic/Trotskyite view, of politics.

      Better that Joe Powell is in the tent routing for Kensington .......instead of EDC outside the tent routing for a purist, hard left, stance.

    2. That is the essence of Corbynism - "a purist, hard left, stance" on everything. Well said, 21.45.

    3. Something very unpleasant about Corbyn and Dent Coad's sycophancy towards him.

    4. Trots are very unpleasant.

      Corbyn behaved like a peeved Trot when Piers Morgan asked him to confirm that Hamas are terrorists.

      EDC said, "My socialism is Corbyn's socialism," so there you have it.

    5. I find Joe Powell very straightforward. He refrains from playing the sophisticated games that Emma Dent Coad (EDC) indulges in so freely which come back to bite her so embarrassingly. I am sure, if he gets in, he will be a marvellous MP.

      However, when I talk to EDC she comes across as a social democratic moderate who seeks a fairer slice of the cake for those at the bottom of the pile. This works for me - I'm a Guardian reading liberal living in Notting Hill with a respect for humanity.

      A friend of mine lives in Notting Dale and she tells me that Emma presents a totally different image to the people affected by Grenfell and, presumably in the poorer areas of Kensington. She comes across as a leftist on the hard left - a marxist.

      EDC needs to be more consistent about how she positions herself politically.

  4. Joe Powell's response, dear lady, is most encouraging and departs from the economic madness of Labour's Old Guard.

    Joe Powell, unlike the Old Guard Labour of Corbyn and Dent Coad, realises that economic policy is social policy. Economic policy and social policy cannot be divorced from each other- they are part and parcel of the same thing. The old guard Labour thought the interests of business could be denigrated when an intelligent socialist like Powell knows that they cannot.

  5. It was disappointing that Felicity Buchan MP did not round on Boris Johnson for saying "fuck business" during the Brexit debacle. As a Tory, she should know the importance of businesses whereas, Labour now has some proposals on the table that the business community is crying out for.

  6. I think the real reason thatLlabour did not want Emma Dent Coad to be the election candidate is because she is a marxist.

  7. How I wish Joe had been our MP when the fire at Grenfell broke out! Good luck, Joe.
