What Corbyn's band of loyal supporters don't get is that right now they are just a collective of minnows in a very small pond and have managed to get their chosen minnow to be the boss.

Now that pond is being emptied into a lake where bigger fish lurk and more of them as well. They will be eaten up and lucky to survive.

Anyway, enough of the analogies.... Labour ALWAYS fcuk up our economy when in government.

The general voting public are still mindful of the sh1t state Brown and Darling left it in in 2010. The older ones amongst us remember Jim Callaghan too and not with fondness.

Balls and now McDonnell are/were spouting Keynesian doctrine and would have us massively borrowing again to stimulate the economy.

Nowt wrong with Keynes, but you can't pick and choose how you apply it. Basically, you save in boom times to spend your way out of bust times. You can't spunk all your money during the boom and then start quoting Keynes as a reason you should spend now we're broke. Trouble is, if you're going to apply that model, it needs to be over the fluctuations of economic cycles, and governments tend to change more regularly than that

To be fair to Brown & Darling, the UK economy was in pretty good shape until the biggest world economic crash in history happened. Agree that Callaghan was useless though.

All hypothetical as Corbyn and McDonald are peas in a pod, both born losers,who, thank god,will never be given
the chance to crash the economy, fingers crossed.

How about you actually answer the points made in my post? Instead of quoting your Maoist moron.

You do not support businesses by raising their taxes. You also don't support them by bankrupting the country. What is it with left wingers? You think literally every problem can be solved by chucking loads of borrowed money at it. Do you honestly think borrowing £250bn will wash with the centrist voter? Absolutely stark raving bonkers.

Stimulate the economy by creating the conditions with which it can thrive. Let business do the rest.

You don't stimulate the economy by cutting and austerity.
When lending money, banks actually generate money from 'thin air' as it were because they know they are going to get more back than they magically 'produced'

Corbyn / McDonnell posit the idea of a national bank to do this. Many leading economists, according to McDonnell in his speech think this is the way forward.

I've never understood, though am happy to be corrected, how we can have quantitive easing to help out banks but not another form of QE to invest in infrastucture, entreprenuership and helping small business.

I'm sure there is a figure of something like 3 or four pounds back for every pounds invested. Sounds like a good deal to me.

After one of the biggest global economic collapses in history (08/09)? We're now in a far worse state along with far more debt yet that doesn't appear to be a 'fcuk-up' to you?

As for Callaghan, i guess he's also at fault for the Dow losing half of its value around that time?

From the not very left wing grauniad.

The artist Darren Cullen has a range of goods including mugs reading: “Make Stuff Dead”. He is also selling a “paralysed Action Man” and a spoof army recruitment advert reading “free prosthetic limbs”, which the Dail Mail has described as “highly offensive to veterans”. Cullen, who has worked with the organisation Veterans for Peace, says his work is a comment on the military’s recruitment tactics and failure to look after its servicemen and women.

A little different to what was posited on this thread

A valid issue, given the way ex-servicemen wounded or psychologically scarred in action are treated by the MOD and the NHS.
