Sadly Theresa "Car Crash " May was driving with quite a few Tory supporters in the back when the accident happened .There were a few casualties ,but this of course was denied by that Conservative party and claimed as Fake News being spread by a certain Mr Corbyn:hihi::hihi:

Oops,Diane Abbott appears to have dropped a clanger again,this time on Jeremy Corbyns association with the IRA.I wonder if she gets paid by the Conservatives.:hihi:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2017-40069744

 

And in the meantime the former Chancellor George Osborne says the Tory policies are ill thought though. What a general election this is turning into.

He was the chancellor he knows what the countries financial state really is the fact he said he thinks May's policies were ill thought though I would have like the report to in depth on his thinking He has been though a general election campaign under Cameron they won the 2015 election. This whole IRA thing is mere mud slinging the Tories seem to miss out the fact that a party member was in the IRA.

Having recently been compelled by circumstances which I won't go into, to spend exactly 3 days thinking about my dislike of Jeremy Corbyn, I still don't like him.

First time in coming up on 3 years as a Forum member, that I have found it necessary to spend 3 days in silent contemplation.

 

I have however developed a dislike of Owen Smith which is comparable in its intensity. I've come to believe that he is somebody who doesn't believe in democracy.

He's in the process of trying to remove a democratically elected leader from the Labour party. Much as I would like the democratically elected leader of the Labour party removed, it's a rather undemocratic thing to happen.

In a similar vain, he's wants to overturn the democratic will of the people by ignoring the EU referendum result.

Add to that, based on his record he in no way believes in the bulk of the policy which he now stands on, and you get a pretty good overview of the man.

 

Then we come back to Mr Corbyn. Now that he's "lost" the Brexit vote (by this I mean I suspect that he got the result he secretly wanted, not that he was responsible for the result); I think he believes the bulk of what he says.

Not the "kinder gentler politics" rubbish. I don't think he believes that. He's clearly to my mind not kinder or gentler, and if anything I think he's less honest, than any other mainstream politician. But I think he does believe in the policy platform on which he stands. This is a good thing, even though I personally could not agree with him less.

 

I remain, above all, extremely concerned by the threat to political discourse, democracy, liberty and all the things which we (across the political spectrum) hold most dear; posed by the fact that there is an extremely nasty group of Corbyn supporters on the loose who are using extreme tactics to intimidate Mr Corbyn's opponents into submission rather than using reason and proper process to achieve their goals. This group, I'm sure, is a small minority of Corbyn supporters, but they are not small enough in number to ignore.

There is no evidence that this nasty group are in any way linked to Mr Corbyn or his team, therefore I do not suggest that he is in any way in command of these extremely bad people. But he has been unable by words or actions to stop them, or even slow them down. That's pretty scary. They proclaim devotion to him, but they carry on despite his instruction not to. They must on some level believe that they are serving him, so it must be possible for him to find the words to get them to stop.

I would encourage Mr Corbyn to redouble his efforts on this matter as a matter of the utmost urgency. I make no apology for making my own inferences, which I shall not voice here, as to why a man in Mr Corbyn's position might have chosen not to do so already.

 

As I find both prospective leaders of the Labour party unacceptable, even as leader of the opposition, it is my sincere hope, that the Labour party is destroyed by the election process. I shall miss it, as it was useful to have the voices of the public sector unions so forcefully put in parliament. It would be a great shame to see this 100 year old institution, with a great deal to be proud of from its history destroyed. However, given the 2 leadership options on the table it is clear that the end of the party is the least worst option.

 

What a cavalcade of nonsense.

No wonder she cowers away from a debate with Corbyn

 

You realise that she debates with Corbyn every week that Parliament is sitting?
