Thanks. Blimey. I'm all for Labour returning to their socialist roots, but this doesn't sit well at all. Doesn't help perceptions of Corbyn at all.iain wrote:Well, there's one link to it for you, from the Guardiankincajou wrote:What's the source?

And I wonder if his deputy will still be able to get away to Benidorm on a regular basis now he's been promoted?

I hate Labour. Kinda thought Corbyn looked ok weeks ago when he came on the scene, but then saw and read what he's into, policies etc and he went straight into the bin. Yep, Labour are shit.

Re: JEREMY CORBYN - ELECTED LABOUR LEADER
Not yet! The shadow cabinet isn't far left, it's a welcome change back to the average 'left' given Labour's huge 'we're tories really' lurch to the right in the 90s under Blair. It's refreshing to see that you can distinguish between the parties now. policies, not personalities. How long it'll last, I'm not sure though!Stevie.T-'up north' wrote:Regret saying this yet mate?

Re: JEREMY CORBYN - ELECTED LABOUR LEADER
OK, maybe not ALL members of his cabinet but certainly the core - Corbyn and McDonnell alone are enough to see that, which is why many of the 'moderates' are refusing to be led by him.kincajou wrote:Not yet!

Nice to see all the odious Blairite noses out of joint.
Yeah you Mandelson, Burnham, Kendall, Cooper and the rest of the war mad bankster lovers.
Better out of power and cutting out the spin than represented by those weasels.

He refused to sing God save the queen yesterday. Obviously not a fan of the Sex Pistols then!

'Man refused to sing song'.
I also do not sing the National Anthem. I will stand in respectful silence but I can't sing a song about 'God' or 'Queen' because I'm an atheist and a republican. It's my personal choice and ought to be everyone's.
A number of serving R.A.F. officers have posted that they preferred him standing in respectful silence than jostling for camera exposure like some other politicians did at the event.
I just think that calling him out on his political beliefs and policies is perfectly acceptable and is to be expected but this is just an example of how our 'news' services have become extensions of tabloid journalism.

Re: JEREMY CORBYN - ELECTED LABOUR LEADER
His first outing at PMQs was thoroughly lame, like some third rate radio talk show host asking questions.
Good question from NIgel Dodds calling out that vile scumbag who has been appointed Shadow Chancellor.
