This is what Hrolf wrote. Now I know we all see something different when we observe, but the ITV News lately has become like watching a party political broadcast on behalf of the liberal/left, ethnic minority Party Whilst I concede he didn't mention skin colour, I think it's fair to surmise what he means by ethnic minority. Ha I love how your answer to everything is to quote one post I made weeks ago and totally out of context. You aren't interested in the truth are you Nick.

As I explained earlier it was in response to your 'childish' remark. I deliberately responded with something that you have posted as being childish and you've got all upset about it.

Just a reminder as to what Corbyn's policies are... Can't see anything wrong with them.

Other than a "Progressive Tax System" whatever that means it is a manifesto to spend Trillions without any real attempt to explain how it would be funded. Education for all throughout their lives, really? That alone won't be cheap even if it is possible. Most of the other policies are so wrapped up in political speak they don't actually say or mean anything

Well for one thing, he is a man who puts his own minority views and his personal ego before his own party and their future. He is like the mythological King Knut commanding the waves to retreat. In this case, the waves of reason. Of course the real King Knut was not such a knob. No leader could be and gain any respect, except from people who were equal knobs. How many of those ten policies are minority views?

The trouble is, though, he seems to be in a position above his abilities. The list of 'policies' are in many cases unimplementable, for example not just 'full employment', but full employment in 'decent jobs'. I'm sorry, but how do you define that? Is a street sweeper not a decent job? Who's going to do that then, when we are all doing worthy things? Not many would object to many of the things listed, but they just won't happen. If Nick Griffin came out with a list of policies including eradicating cancer, world class public transport free of charge, free annual holidays to the destination of your choice, and a million pound bonus every ten years you are working, all with a 5% income tax rate, it would be hard to object, but they are just not realistic. It's the difference between a principled ideas man and a pragmatic realist, credible as a leader of a nation.

Then throw in Cat Smith, Emily Thornberry, Diane Abbot and Richard Burgon, to name a few and it is hard to see how he can have much positive press. You are taking the the Trump defence of blaming the media but have you seen what Corbyn (or one of his acolytes) Tweets? He is shambolic
