Re: Jeremy Corbin
The Tory's are a right wing party, to act as a counter balance and represent the working men and women the Labour opposition must hold left wing views.
There are some MP's who call themselves moderates, they yearn for the days of Blair when Labour were following the policies of Thatcher. The Scots called them Red Tories and kicked them out to vote SNP. They have not learned from this and have plotted and schemed to force Corbyn from office, a man who was elected by the largest majority of any Labour leader.
The people have spoken, NO to austerity, NO to the poor paying for the disasters of the wealthy elite, NO to the Establishment, NO to Cameron and Osborne, NO to the EU.
Already, before he has even gone, attempts are being made to rewrite history, to turn Cameron into something he was not. He made the rich richer, the poor poorer. His decision to wage war in Libya has seen the destruction of the country, boatloads of African migrants either drowning or landing in Italy. British, American and French special forces fighting IS terrorists who have taken root following the war, they are putting their lives on the line to clear up the mess he made. Blair's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are still being fought but Cameron didn't learn from this. Next month the Chilcot report will finally be published, perhaps future leaders will take notice.

Re: Jeremy Corbin
the people voted to get out of europe ..and the faceless people running my country ....you may rattle the same old dogma louis ..but if there was an election tommorow the tories would get in again ....your shining light of lefty communism is a spent force ....at this time we need a strong hand from a decent minded person .......a lover of the country ....the problem is have we got one ......a person of true belief in the true greatness of the british tribe .........i have no doubt this person will surface without being shackled to captalism or the donkey of communism ...which appears to be your view ...or the dogma of socialism......which constantly leaves the country bankrupt .....if you wish to fly the red flag at a crucial time for our nation like this you may have a friend in putin ...but i doubt if you will have many followers in this country were we have thrown off one yoke ....and surely will not bear another ...cappy

Re: Jeremy Corbin
#13 With all due respect you cannot honestly think that Jeremy Corbyn is a fit person to lead any party, let alone this country in its time of need, he may be a very nice man and hold strong beliefs in his path of rightousness, but alas those qualities are not sufficient for a leader of a country, they also have to be ruthless at the negotiating table, a trait I think our Jeremy is lacking.
The only red flag worth flying has a union flag in one corner at the top.

Re: Jeremy Corbin
I think Jeremy corbins initials JC got him the job. There is one party he would make a good leader of is The Mad Hatters Party. Think he must buy his wardrobe from Oxfam. Even Ivan was better. Dressed from the rag bag. JWS.

Re: Jeremy Corbin
If Jeremy Corbyn was leading the country in place of Blair there would not be wars in Afghanistan and Iraq there would not be over 100,000 dead, there would not be young servicemen maimed for life, there would not be IS terrorists as they were formed by ex Iraqi army officers whose regiments were disbanded after occupation.
There will never be figures published showing in monetary terms how much Blair and later Cameron cost our country and even worse it will never be admitted that all who were killed died for nothing.
Negotiating skills or the colour of flags do not offer much comfort for the families who are still suffering.

Totally agree Ivan, How Cameron had the Gaul to even associated himself in a chair in number 10 with the ghost of the great Winston Churchill is beyond me, Cameron couldn't lick his boots let alone walk in them, That,s whats needed in this country right now a bloody good statesman like Churchill not some failed negotiator out of Cambridge still wet behind the ears. And i cant find anyone who fits the bill in any of the parties. The next few months could be the most important in British history for a very long time, And i don,t trust or think Cameron is up to steadying the ship for whats to come. I would put it in the hands of uncle Albert before him. Terry
