O/T Jeremy corbyn

[KerrAvon]

Mr Kerr raison d'etre is to be a critic of the left. He has no interest at all in criticising the right. Why not is a total mystery for someone who purports to be fair minded. His obsession with the Labour party is just so spiteful and unnecessary. Nobody says labour is perfect but neither are the other partys. To say that a Corbyn govt for this country would lead to some sort of cataclysmic economic disaster will just not be true. Even the most biased person realises that there really ain't much difference between the political party's and that is why voters are so pissed off on general with politics and look to nutters like farage as some sort of escape.

I don't think it spiteful and unnecessary to remain silent about the nature of Corbyn, Abbott and McDonell's politics even if it is inconvenient for raging and his ministry here.

Does Momentum issue blinkers, I wonder?

To say that a Corbyn govt for this country would lead to some sort of cataclysmic economic disaster will just not be true. Saying that doesn't make it true. History suggests that it isn't.

...and still no criticism of anything remotely right...tic toc as they say...it truly would tear you apart if you had to say anything like that wouldn't it Mr Kerr?

Go on do it for your pal Rolypoly. Just a tincey criticism...it would make my day! Do it for charity if not me!

The Labour Party has lost its way, forgot what it should be doing...looking after the interests of working people in the UK.
They need to drop the obsession with the PLO, Hammas and anti Jewish agenda. It’s a vote loser.

I really don't think he was
We were & are members of the EU & as such will have been instrumental in forming those standards

I thought it blindingly obvious what my point was; Grist says that we'll be able to trade on our terms. I was pointing out that we won't. If we trade into foreign markets - including the EU - we'll trade on WTO terms or in accordance with the terms of any trade deals that we have entered into (chlorinated chicken anyone?). Any goods and services traded into a foreign market will have to comply with the regulatory requirements of that market.

As you point out, we have had a say in current EU regulations. We won't have a say in future post-Brexit regulations.

Nor they ours
What so suddenly we become unable to meet standards that we have met for decades
Don't we import more than we export to the EU,one of our strongest advantages which Maybot somehow failed to recognise & failed to use. That's why we are in this mess

Is it something about being of a Left Wing persuasion that causes some people to have selective memories, Roly?

How can you say that I don't criticise the right? Was I not deemed to be one of your favourite posters when I spent quite a lot of time debating with the likes of Ellis D over his views on Islam?

In general, I don't like either extreme right or extreme left politics. Both tend to end in tears.

Agreed but not on right wing economic policies so I can only presume that you think that fight wing economic policies are ok.

Is that a fair statement?

The tory party IS A DISASTER.

The record jobs are rubbish jobs. If not for Labour we would all be still in flat caps outside factory like - waitin fut nod frompt beastly foremun.

If truth be told this country has been raped by the rich who are bathing in luxury and don't deserve it. That's why they control nigh on every statistic quoted.

And Boris - Gawd elp us all. Get flat caps out!

This whole thread is a symbol of the brainwashing this country suffers from. I'd say DYOR....But you read / research to suit your long held personal beliefs so attitude changing facts go astray.

Simple rule:

Tories self serving Bar Stewards. Complemented by the right wing media that cover up the stories of deaths under the money pit NHS - et al. The fraud of the major projects over running on time and £££££ cost a fortune and never finished....FRAUD !

Labour do the right thing for the people and the country but hampered by brutal propaganda of all media and without big business support. And the civil service mandarins don't help.

Pitch forks down Whitehall over Brexit as catalyst for a shift in politics. Notice how quiet the media are at the moment....keeping real issues under the radar so common folk get back to their ploughs and lose interest.

This 5 year term is a joke and detrimental to our democracy....the tory leadership campaign is showing the people what the tories are all about and the gobs 5hite who'll win has been kept quiet so he doesn't shoot himself in the foot.

Get me an axe and a bit of Canada and I'll build a nice log cabin with no Internet / cable.....not "overcrowded" there!

That is why every single Labour MP whose constituency voted to leave the EU are campaigning not to. If your going to throw stones please make sure you do not live in a glass house ok.

Completely wrong.
There's a groundswell of Labour MPs in leave constituencies who are urging Corbyn not to back a 2nd referendum. Some of these MPs personally prefer to stay in the EU but are rightly taking their constituents views into account and are seeking to deliver Brexit.
