A bit of a side but it shows prejudice if not IQ Deficiency in persons.

My son school had a French day yesterday, many came in stripy shirts beret and onions / garlic. “Many of colour” came in said stereotype.

Would the schoolchildren have been able to black up for Nigeria or Jamaica day?

Well maybe more representative of the working classes than recent Labour leaders. I do quite agree with you that Corbyn represents more of a sub-section of the left that maybe is more about an idealised stereotype of the working classes, than people who actually work in low skilled, semi-skilled and manual work.

I'm not sure that Labour really outside of the Unions has much 'common touch', most having never really had a 'proper job' in their life.

Simple.

On French day make sure you haven't washed for a week after having done loads of gardening.

On Nigeria day send loads of texts around trying to mislead people into giving their house and savings away and anything that happens that you have done just claim it wasn't you no matter how obvious it actually was.

COYP

if only, but not the point.

BTW I have $10mn waiting to be released by the US treasury but due to a cashflow problem I need a small amount of assets. send me £50k and I will help you a $1mn.

I agree....He is more representative to the working classes since...bloody hell...maybe Smith...When I think of the positives of Corbyn....and I'm a believer that most things contain both positives and negatives when you objectively look at them.....Probably the best aspect about him is that he does appear to actually give a fcuk.

I might disagree with some of his solutions actually being effective in achieving his aims...or that he seems to notice that a lot of working class people aren't particularly 'progressive'....But improving the lives of working and poorer people is a noble aim.

I don't go with the section of the right that think you can just shut your door and ignore people....the 'I'm alright brigade'. That's a pathway to even worse outcomes.

'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.' (Leslie Nielsen)

Andrew Murray (like Corbyn, another child of a wealthy middle class family) who led Labour's campaign certainly and demonstrably is:
Murray joined the communist party aged 18, in 1976, and was a member until December 2016 when Coryn offered him a job with Labour.
In 2016 he wrote: 'We need urgently to raise the level of our Leninist education. Everything we are talking about, the imperialist crisis, inter-imperialist conflict, war, political strategy and tactics, are Leninist issues. We need to do far more to study Marxism-Leninism.'
After the 9/11 attacks in America, Murray described them as 'landmarks in world history'. He added: 'Imperialism is the terrorism of the powerful, breeding night and day the revenge of the weak.'
In 2003, writing for a Communist Party journal, Murray praised the regime of the late North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il. 'Our Party has already made its basic position of solidarity with Korea clear'.
Murray has also praised the Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez. In 2007 he said: 'Venezuela, for the first time in a generation, there is a government committed to establishing socialism.' Venezuela is now gripped by hyperinflation which has led to a run on the country's banks, food shortages, looting, and a plummeting currency.
In 2006 Murray gave the annual 'Marx oration' at Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery, north London - in which he railed against the 'world war' he said was being waged by the West against countries such as Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, Syria and North Korea, who were being 'threatened' by Western powers.
It was through the hard-Left Stop The War Coalition, which is basically an organisation whose purpose is to destroy Israel (they published an article titled 'Time to go to war with Israel as the only path to peace in the Middle East'), that he forged his strong links to Corbyn. He became the first chairman in 2001. Corbyn took over in 2011, and he replaced Corbyn when he stood down after he became Labour leader. After the Paris terror attacks in 2015, which left 129 dead, Stop The War posted a blog which declared Paris had 'reaped the whirlwind of Western support for extremist violence in Middle East.'
After the Charlie Hebdo terror attack, Murray described the actions of the terrorists as 'minute compared to' historic imperialism.
As recently as the autumn of 2015, after Corbyn's leadership victory, Murray told the Guardian: 'All my children are in the Labour Party. All four. One has been in the Labour Party a long time. The other three are all there as a result of Jeremy's surge. But, no, I'm a member of the Communist Party. That's where I am. Communism still represents in my view a society worth working towards’

We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]
