Most forms of pure evil are rare in the modern world - society has evolved past most of them. Doesn't make them any less evil.

Ha, ha, so wanting to put the railways and water into public hands is 'evil'? Okay, rightio... I guess the NHS is too? Last time I checked Corbyn still supported representative democracy and had not called for permanent revolution just yet. ha, ha!

The trades unions and their attempts to extort honest taxpayers of their salaries.

I don't think anyone serious would deny a general shift away from those communist policies of the 70s and Corbyn. It would take more than a blip for a couple of years to convince me that trend has reversed.

No one has argued that you are right.

What are you so concerned about? You just said that that are irrelevant.

Child molestation is irrelevant to my daily life - doesn't stop me from decrying it.

Populism, pure and simple. It's the same mechanism by which Donald Trump isn't laughed off of the ticket in the US.

Corbyn gets the anti-establishment vote because he's seen as being outside the system. Problem is, the system has evolved because it works and it (mainly) keeps the cranks out.

Ha, ha, like you were ever going to vote Labour anyway. brick, did anybody see this coming?

Yes. I was.

Because they wanted to leave the EU. Corbyn is still my favourite, but his whole life he has attacked the EU. A thing I hate which is what attracted me to him. But now from pressure from remoaners he is changing course.

Thought he had more strength then that.

Your problem is your in love with a political party, and love is not logical.

The are some of us a lot of us who will vote for who we think will implement the changes we want in society.

I voted for Blair, regretfully with hindsight and I have voted conservative and UKIP. I don't belong to any party.

I can think for myself rather then blindly any one party.

Darroch has resigned.

Another national humiliation.

Taking back control really has gone swimmingly.

And all for the fascism of Boris and the Tories hey. I can keep this up for as long as you can.

Why the hate for Boris? He wouldn't normally be my first choice, but how can anyone hate someone who penned this article?

Edited for you.

Edited for you.

The £500 gets my vote. The article makes him a legend.

Serious question for labour voters.

Can you trust Corbyn? Try to play the game by backing leave and now backing remain and second referendum. Now I don't care what he backs personally thats not the point of my post but can he be trusted? Seems a man of few morals and a hunger for power to me.

Thats him and BoJo in a nutshell, isnt it?

Seems like a bricky choice to make between the two should it come to an election.

You're asking if a politician can be trusted? The most obvious oxymoron ever written.

Why is it a national humiliation?

I assume someone wanted him gone which is why it was leaked.

Also you never write down anything you don't want your worse enemy to see.

When you made the grand announcement a year or so back that "Corbyn has some good ideas and I will be voting for him" I had a little chuckle and smiled to myself, thinking, that's never going to happen. And it didn't. I have an ideology, that I'm committed to, not a political party. I don't belong to Labour anymore but am still a democratic socialist.

Well for a start if he had a hunger for power, he would have joined the Tories wouldn't he? Leading Labour is hardly a role for a megalomaniac... now Clown Shoe Boris on the other hand?

His position remains pretty constant throughout, leave but with a labour deal. Backs remain over tory deal or no deal. Give him the choice he would prefer GE where he will run on leave.

Personally think he should back remain but he hasn't yet.

Brexit fudge up... brought to you by the Tory Party starring Cameron, Farage, Johnson and May... but wait... wait... all the angst is about Corbyn... a man not in government... wait. I'd be more concerned with the shower of brick that caused this mess.

Serious question, can you trust any of the politicians ?
