What this week has shown is that Corbyn has the power and backing to oust anyone from the SC who doesn't follow the whip.

The fact is, May is hanging on by a thread and there's no one wants to take the mantle because of the clusterf*** that is Brexit.

No he has been weakened by the fact that 49 of his party defied his instructions.

The fragile 'Coalition' between the moderates and extremists has been broken.

Anyway, high time I went to bed.Goodnight.

Perhaps a warning sign of the dictatorial way in which he'd love to run the country. Pretty decent of him to be so open, Adolf Hitler seemed reasonably sane until he got a bit of power.

I think that blog rather catastrophises and exaggerates things.

Corbyn is a social Democrat. In Norway (a successful democracy by all accounts) he'd be seen as a moderate. So cut out the commie, socialist paradise emotive guff it ain't working. Desperation is becoming more and more apparent in your posts Willo.

Nearly split my sides laughing.Thought this was a serious debate.

I could do a 'Gusset' and squirrel arounf the Internet looking for political posts but the 'Marx Brothers' AKA Corbyn and McDonnell are NOT really worth expending much energy on these things.

I've had my say - got better things to do than spend my time on Corbyn and his hard-liners intent on bringing down a Government away from the ballot box and his supporters spreading disgraceful fake news on social media.

Get over it - Less than 1 Million votes and 56 seats.

Nothing more to say on this thread - NOT responding to any Labour hogwash by giving it the credence it doesn't deserve.

Far from it. Tory power is hanging by a delicate thread and the only suggestion on these boards to get them out of it is Boris.
Thing is you know it.

Outside of a Boris led majority....which is of course also debatable...I think that whoever is in 'power' their grip would be weak.

Thumping majorities where a party gets to push through its ideologies seems to be a long way off.

I've never been a fan of weak government....I prefer for a government to have got its legislation through so that it can then be properly judged against it.

People's debt was with the banks. Give money to people to pay off debt and the money still ends up with the banks but the people are debt free too.

Bit of a problem with this.

Not everyone is in debt....I've spent my life religiously avoiding decisions that committed myself to large debt that would be risky to pay off.

Paying off people's debts sounds good but essentially....It would make my caution look foolish.....Perhaps I should be getting things on credit if the taxpayer is committed to paying it off for me.

Maybe there is a solution in their somewhere but I'm not sure it's as simple as the one you suggest.

It would have to be done regardless of how much personal debt you had - this is all thinking out loud of course - so if you gave everyone 10 grand (don't pick me up on figures please - I'm not Diane Abbott I'm just following on from Cardiff and Stirling's trains of thought and plucking numbers out of my @rse - hold on, maybe I AM Diane Abbott ) on the proviso it went to pay off outstanding personal debt first. That way, if you have run up personal debt, you pay it off, if you haven't and have been frugal and sensible, you get that cash in your account to do with as you will

No it doesn't. Not In the slightest.

People have to live through what this government has done / is doing. Moaning about some bloke rabbiting on for 15 minutes hardly compares.

I remember you championed the German economy.....Well they suffered pay restraint and modest incomes for decades to correct their economy before productivity gains and exports increased pay.....That's not the Corbyn model.

An economy has to attract the wealthy into it....They have to see gains from being here.....Investment comes from seeing profit....Corbyn thinks he's Robin Hood....Well Robin....If you rob the rich in the forest then they will just take another route.

A version of Corbyn's plan was tried in France....It's an economic false dawn. The people who are worst hit from these policies are the poor.....The French voted the left out for a technocrat.
