Jeremy Corbyn

[BillyStubbsTears]

I see the CC of West Yorks says he was misled over the content of Johnson's speech with the coppers behind him.

He'd been told the speech was ONLY a out police numbers. Instead, Johnson went off onto Brexit, slagging off the Opposition and blatantly electioneering.

He has zero sense of honour or honesty. A horrible, horrible man.

[Axholme Lion]

I've said many times, McDonnell understands how a capitalist economy works FAR better than any Tory Chancellor going back 50 years, with the possible exception of Ken Clarke.

The history of the rest of them is horrific.

Hammond and Osborne implemented insane Austerity measures which is the 180 degree opposite of what any basic university economics course would tell you to do to a depressed economy. We have had the worst recovery from recession since the South Sea Bubble as a result and have lost a decade of economic growth.

Lamont was destroyed in 1992 by the financial markets when trying to keep the pound tied to the Deutschmark and suffered the most humiliating defeat for any Chancellor since the War.

Lawson stupidly cut taxes as the economy was booming in 1988, leading to runaway inflation and the inevitable bust of the 1990 recession.

Geoffrey Howe made the incomprehensible mistake of raising I retest rates and cutting Govt spending at the depth of a recession in 1981, turning a bad recession into a catastrophic one, trebling unemployment and starting the collapse of industry in the UK.

Anthony Barber poured Govt spending into an already overheating economy in 1972, leading to an unsustainable boom and the massive increase in inflation of the mid-70s.

50 years of almost continuous failure by Tory Chancellor's, because of a failure to understand the basic precepts of capitalist macroeconomics.

McDonnell understands this. It's clear in every speech he gives. His economics are no more radical than Ken Clarke's in 1993, but he's painted as some sort of mad Marxist. That shows you how far the Tories have moved from anything remotely resembling sensible economics or politics.

McDonell would have you use your spare bedroom to house asylum seekers at gun point.

Well I pity the poor t**t who gets lumbered with you.

How many will you be taking?

So Axholme you want the country to be led by a bunch of rich Old Etonian right wing thugs who don't give a flying f***k for the likes of us.
You want your bumps feeling.

The thought of another 5 years of them (which will probably be among my last on this planet) honestly makes me come out in a cold sweat.

It’s like a Theocracy now. No-one can question Brexit, no scientist, doctor or anyone with any professional qualifications is good enough if they don’t have the Brexit Faith.

I wish they would stop interviewing Politicians with opposite views together as we all know what stance they will take - not answering the question asked of them but just the "mantra" they want to plug

Similarly an MP by himself trolls out the same sad line depending on which side of the debate he stands

Whichever side you are on this is tedious in the extreme and as I said elsewhere about 3000 times in the last 3 years (yes I am as bad)

Do you think Corbyn, Abbott, McDonnell and the rest of their racist anti British mob give any thought to the likes of us either?
How much do you think that lot are worth? They will hardly be penniless. Champagne socialists the lot of 'em. Che Guevarra and Enver Hoxha would have put a bullet through the lot of 'em.

meanwhile back on planet earth


We all thought that we had seen it all when the Tories tweeted a meme of Jeremy Corbyn dressed as a chicken but it would appear that the UK's governing party had another trick up their sleeves.


The Tories have actually produced a bucket of chicken (or what they are trying to pass off as chicken, anyway) with a JFC logo on it plus Corbyn's face as well as the slogan 'totally spineless chicken' and are sending it to journalists across London.


This completely bizarre stunt was soon all over social media, and needless to say people were not impressed with the Tories attempt to try and goad Corbyn into backing a general election.

Corbyn the bottler?

[Copps is Magic]

Its absolute car crash stuff. Everyone can see through it - why would the Lib Dems polling at their most popular for years (decades?) also be running away from an election? There's one thing the British people don't like and that is being taken for mugs, and Boris'current strategy is to try and take us for mugs.

https://twitter.com/Conservatives/status/1169928730652733440

[Donnywolf]

99% agree

Johnson will be taking us all for mugs but 1% wont twig that !

[idler]

Boris looks clueless when things aren't going as he hoped and expected.
He doesn't look capable of thinking on his feet when asked a question that he either doesn't like or understand.

[foxbat]

Corbyn the bottler? it just shows how some people fall for
the Sun's  sh1te.

the strategic move is to wait and make Johnson ask for an extension .

Even a 5 year old wouldn't fall for Johnson's trap.

[Donnywolf]

The Libs though may be at their highest high for ages but the First past the Post system will do them no favours at all

Till we and they get PR of some kind the best they can hope for is "balance of power" again.

Last election (apologies that I have posted this many times lately)

Libs got 8 Seats having attracted   2,121,810 Votes
DUP got 10 Seats getting "just"        292,316 Votes

So 2 Seats less despite getting 7 times more Votes
CORRUPT ELECTORAL SYSTEM - PR NOW (may have said that before too - sorry)

Luckily they cant vote yet but a hell of a lot of 35s 45s and 55s and yes 65s WILL (and are) falling for it - unfortunately

' Or he could do the decent thing and not ask for an extension. '

what's 'decent ' about not taking the action to ensure the Country's financial security. ?

' we won the war' won't save us.

The decent thing would be to try and get a deal and not ruin the economy and people's lives.

To all of you having a pop at me today, point me to where I've ever defended either Boris Johnson or the Tory Party. What I've always said is that the rabble in Westminster are all useless, and have been accused of being a "lazy thinker" because of it.

Well it looks like my views are vindicated today, as both Corbyn and McDonnell had stated that once the bill to block Non Deal had been locked down, they'd vote for an election. Now they''re saying they won't.

So they're not only cowards and cheats, they're a pair of f*cking liars as well.

And Corbyn is giving the Boris the time to do what he says he wants to, which is to go to the EU on Oct 17th and bring back that deal. Do those calling Corbyn chicken really want him to stop Boris doing that?

It hasn't been given Royal Assent yet, so it's not locked down.

Have you bothered to read the 2017 Labour Manifesto yet?

If that's directed at me, I didn't say that people who thought our MPs were shite are "lazy thinkers", but people who believe every single politician is out for themselves and themselves alone. Because that just isn't true.

[scawsby steve]

Steve, what's the Daily Mail say this morning about Labour, mate?

I've no idea Rob; as I've said on here many times, I don't read newspapers as they're ALL politically biased. I prefer to watch all the news broadcasts and press previews on Sky News and BBC News.

Thanks for that Albie. I think some people on here have difficulties with semantics; "Labour accepts the referendum result".

Obviously, it refers to not accepting a No Deal scenario, but that's not what I've been taking issue with. It's the constant blocking, delaying, cheating and conning of the last 3 years.

But it will have Royal Assent by Monday, before the motion for a GE, and they're still going to vote against it. They're simply reneging on what they've said.

No wonder people's trust in politicians is at an all time low.

Look on the bright side, it allows Boris the time to do what he keeps on promising us he's going to do - of going to the EU on Oct 17th and bringing back a deal. In which case all the anti-No Deal stuff will become irrelevant.
