Doing the usual politician thing of saying anything to get into power. As my mother used to say “ it’s like two boots arguing over which one will kick you in the nuts”

It would be about ending austerity economics; investing in the economy. Solving the housing crisis; free education; rebuild the NHS; reset public sector pay and conditions; bring industries such as rail and utilities into public ownership. Lab18 SocialistSunday

Which of the two evils is lesser.

About voting for a Marxist chump who's openly antisemitic.

To save us from them Tory rats 🐀

What for. OH!!. It must be for a new Labour leader.

156% rise in homelessness. 4.5 million children in poverty. NHS on its knees. Unprecedented cuts to local authority funding. The Windrush scandal. Grenfell. Every school in Britain facing crippling cuts. The rise in food banks. Deaths caused directly by Tory austerity. Housing...

thenationstrust is betrayed daily by those that asked for it and who, once the votes are counted forget that trust in the pursuit of person power, very personal ambition and eventually small minded point scoring. Step up! Get a grip. Put your nation, these people, us, first.

Ridding the country of moderates and Jews?

him, being PM ?

Whether or not people are willing to overlook UKLabour hatred of Jews, support of terrorist groups, backing of violent protests and general incompetence of the ‘government in waiting’!

Anti BREXIT ticket should be the only show on the road!!!!

Free X Free Y Free Z Votes for 12 year olds and free iPhones Every child to get 10 A* in exams Benefits doubled Business rate 75% Lowest tax rate 30%; Highest tax rate 98% Fuel duty doubled VED & Road Tax doubled Inheritance tax threshold £1.50 Inheritance tax rate 60%

I think labour voters etc at the conference should simply walk out in droves if he does not address the central issue literally from the first minute he opens his mouth.

Blimey ! Where to start ?

Nationalising: the railways, the utility companies, the weather, the UK grime scene, whistling and farting.

Too many egos

Hahaha bless him. He wouldn't win anyway. What idiot would vote for a socialist?!

I daresay it would be on the basis of their current policy. Try and get a good deal, failing that, look at the alternative of potentially a second vote.

Jeremy Corbyn attacks Mrs May for ducking the vote... while ducking a vote himselfThe Lord has placed us in purgatory. A purgatory in which we are forced to endure an unrelenting onslaught of intolerable suffering, in the form of 24-hour news about Brexit, writes MichaelPDeacon MichaelPDeacon Is this a mockery of the Church of England? In Roman Catholicism, we believe in purgatory but because we shy away from Dante's Inferno, we only describe it as a purging period necessary to meet the Lord face to face. Did King Henry VIII do away with purgatory? OxfordWords MichaelPDeacon Yes .. most of it is uneducated speculative bollocks .. I’ve stopped listening to Today as it nauseates me .. I’d rather listen to predictions about the end of the world, global collapse and the winner of Strictly Come Dancing. MichaelPDeacon Turn off tv and get off social media.
