And that is exactly why Labour are where they are, the last two elections, the voters fault. Frankly it is pathetic Everything is the voters fault actually. Including brexit but also the failure to vote for a representative voting system. The one partv state is probably here to stay and its the voters own fault. A dictator could easily happen here.

No doubt at all who is coming across best on the 'hustings' that is JC who seems to be relishing the people pressure whereas May positively winces at any form of human contact. Who would ever have thought a tory PM would be so desperate as to offer council house building and workers rights. I don't think the voters believe any of it as stupid as they are. I think that quote is aimed at yourself as your posts are getting more ridiculous than they ever where. You obviously read into every article you see in a different way to the rest of us mere mortals. The Prime Minister is doing her best to make something good from all the hash and spin the Labour have been doing for years and years. You must get it in your head right now Jeremy Corbyn is a loser and will never ever get into no 10 Downing street. Theresa May is going to have such a majority at this election that Labour will be wiped out. I feel sorry for the Labour voters that have stuck with their movement for decades and now have an idiot in charge that has ruined what they stood for in the old days. We used to have a good opposition party but now we have nothing of the sort. I shall be glad when the election is over and we can get down to the business of Brexit and get a great deal for ourselves under Theresa May and shut up the remainers who stir up trouble at every step. The public voted and we got Brexit so deal with it!
Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

All I see from Lefties is how mad the voting public are to vote Tory. It is the worst case of mass lack of self awareness I've ever seen. Everyone else is insane except me and a handful of my Lefty mates. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (16 May 2017 12.33pm)

I'm not saying he is. But he is clearly appealing to large sections of previously disillusioned groups within our electorate, many of whom are low earners. That is great for our democracy. Let's not forget we live in a country where most in poverty are in work. Pledges to increase the minimum wage, build new council homes, and reduce the tax burden on the poorest are such a refreshing change to the past 7 years. Labour are finally returning to their roots as a party for the working classes. So what percentage of the population is he 'clearly' appealing to? Do you have to be a low earner or 'in poverty' to be disillusioned by politics over the last few years? Many who are not low earners or in poverty are disillusioned by the damage done to the country by the liberal/left ideas that have held sway for the last 20 odd years. However, I doubt that they will be voting for Corbyn who has even more damaging liberal left ideas. 'Refreshing change' - LOL, it is the same liberal left nonsense, only more extreme.
We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |

I will give the progressives running Labour some credit for some of their policies. The investment bank sounds like a good idea. Social housing pledges are an obvious requirement. The Tory and New Labour approaches to the housing market have been nothing short of a crime towards large sections of the population. What else? The complaints about the results of some of the privatizations are valid.....Nationalization though...Is that the right way of correcting for it? I like the dislike of private education....I like the dislike of elitism and state sponsored inequality. But in general....the spending commitments.....What is it....over eight percent of our tax take already goes on paying for the interest on our borrowing. I can see that sky rocketing under Corbyn.....Fantasies about the cost of Trident simply won hack it....Taxing the s*** out of our financial sector would also surrender that industry to Germany and lose us and London mucho jobo.

Another interesting way of looking at Corbyn's leadership credentials: if he'd been leader at the time, would he have committed the same f*ck ups as recent leaders? Would he have sold off council housing without replacing it? Would he have deregulated the banks before the crash? Would he have gone in to Iraq? Would he have sold off the gold, the Royal Mail, the trains at record low prices? Would he have allowed the biggest referendum in our life times to have been a simple yes/no question? Would he have brought in the bedroom tax? Would he have f*cked a dead pig as part of a bet with his Etonian chums? Who is the bad leader then?
If punk ever happened I'd be preaching the law, instead of listenin to Lydon lecture BBC4 |

Corbyn was also against the war in Afghanistan. Those towers came down and all you would have got from him would have been harsh language.
