NIck small piece of advice.

I've voted every year since I was eligible

2001 Labour
2005 Labour
2010 Tory
2015 Tory

I really don't want to vote Tory this time but it's people like you and the way you hammer into everything that do the left no favours. You make it harder for middle of the road voters to lean left. Do you honestly think middle of the road looks at your posts and says "yes, you know what he's right I'll now vote Labour" when you continually ram down our throats how we are manipulated by the media.

I've someone on my social media feed who must have posted several hundred articles about how we should all vote for Corbyn and the only people who vote Tory have no morals - whilst he works for Ladbroke Corals. That's the company that a: promotes betting and b: contrived several tax avoidance schemes that were defeated. I draw a parallel with you because you both seem addled with some sort of superiority complex and at at the same time loathing of what you actually are - which is white middle class.

Corbyn has just shot his foot off with the small business and welfare state comments. He doesn't get it, no politician does.

But we are not all stupid because we don't see things the way you do. That is my fundamental issue with voting Labour, the superiority. And Diane Abbot.

Terrible news.

Palace 13th 2017/18.

Cheeky fiver on labour to win, the country is more than stupid enough to vote him in.

The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

Oh I'm sure that money will go to funding minority interests. The sort of people who they hope will vote Labour.

Paying off the interest from Labour's borrowing?

Labour scores another own goal. If you are going to turn up on a programme with certain policies targeted for discussion e.g. childcare on Woman's Hour, then have the bl**dy costs in front of you:

And people are thinking of voting for him ???
He is an idiot first class and will get slayed in the coming general election thank God.

Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.

There seems to be a lot of people at a loss as to why the guy is so popular amongst tge young so i'll give it a go from my perspective...

If you're coming out of school/uni today, you're looking at society and just not seeing any hope at all. We've had brexit which is really gonna rock us, but more importantly the jobs which offer security are drying up. This i think is the most crucial point: if you want a job, it's easy, but most of those jobs i, for example, am looking at are never gonna come close to paying rent, bills, food and a bit spare.

That goes across the board pretty much. I have mates training to be nurses, teachers, some who did apprenticeships, up to me who went to uni and studied hard but is still looking at a service job to get by. Add on the debt i racked up at uni, and the fact that my financial outgoings like rent and food are only gonna increase...you can see why a lot of young people are seeing corbyn as our only hope.

Then there's the other fact, that younger people feel more internationalist because we engage online and can travel fairly easily. My missus is polish, has studied and worked here but now has a PM refusing to guarantee her the right to stay. I am by no means alone, and i know a lot of people my age now who wanna get out of here because the nationalist chauvinism is blinding us, politically, from acting smart about our future.

If you take that security away from people, they'll react against the system. It's a truism as old as the hills, and yet the tories, at the minute, dont seem to get it.

If punk ever happened I'd be preaching the law, instead of listenin to Lydon lecture BBC4

This also applies to May who could hardly answer a single question of Paxman's last night. In my lifetime, the choice of leaders to run this country has never been so low given their gaffs and backwards Manifesto half-promises at a parlous state that threatens to leave country in ever spiralling downward movement economically-speaking. How our children and their children will be paying for OUR mistakes for generations to come.

When are you going?

Is this like the old, 'I'll leave for Canada if Trump wins'....and then basically the vast majority didn't?

And Irish ferries must be filled to overloading with all those remainers who told me they were ditching their British citizenship and becoming Irish.

I know a couple of them and yeah...as usual...they were talking the usual emotional waffle.

We need more space in this country....I do wish people who threatened to leave would actually do it.
