It's a sad indictment of the internet age that people can decide that they dislike someone simply for disagreeing with them.
Why are you so fascinated with whether I put a bet on? Don't you think it a little self indulgent to use this board for what is starting to look like a personal vendetta?
Start a thread about me if you want to talk about me rather than cluttering this one up.
Corbyn? I have my reservations but not as many for him as the other party leaders. I am not particularly happy with any of the party leaders or parties but I have a choice on an election I either vote for what's on show or nobody at all. The reason why I would probably vote labour at the next election is that I would agree with their policies more than the other political party's. I probably never agree with all labour policies. The Blair era comes to mind. Blair was someone I despised asuch as Thatcher because i didn't expect owt from thatcher.but I did him a labour pm after a landslide victoru. I think a lot of labour voters became disillusioned with labour after Blair because he let them down . He has and still has a lot to answer for in my eyes. Maybe Corbyn will let me down but like I say I can only go on what I feel is best. I am never gonna argue Corbyn is going to give us a utopian govt it ain't gonna happen under capitalism anyway because powerful people will still call the tune
You should worry about Labour because they offer easy answers to complex problems. The usual answer is to tax the wealthy. The problem with that is evident from their catch phrase 'For the many not the few'. There aren't enough super wealthy people to go round and the very rich can easily reduce their tax liability by off shoring.
I'd prefer a party to come along and say 'if you want a fully funded NHS and more resources then you've got to pay for it'. That about a seven percentage point increase across the Income Tax board just for health...
