How long before Labour changes its emblem from a rose to the hammer and sickle ?

What on earth is this politics of kindness? Is it not the same as what Blair created? Coincidence that most his voters grew up in that era?

I think its like the 'Big Society' and 'all in it togeather' the empty vapid nonsense that politicians come out with that sounds good but is in fact a load of old bollocks in which politicians elicit support on the basis of oratory, rather than truth and policy.

Big State more like. I note that Corbyn also mentioned opportunities for the youth created by increasing university places, while a member of his cabinet slagged off apprenticeships. Similar to the Blairite obsession with sending everyone to Uni.

I'm not sure it was necessarily just a Blairite obsession, it was almost impossible to get a foot in to a lot of career options if you didn't have a graduate entry. Apprenticeships in areas such as IT, Law, Business etc are very rare compared to graduate places. It actually is quicker to become a solicitor via the Apprenticeship equivalent, rather than go to college and university and then do the two year placement.

Problem is, in the apprenticeship program legal firms incur the costs and risks. Where as with the graduate entry, they can cherry pick the highest grade students, and only incur minimal training costs (which they recoup by essentially having a paralegal on low income).

So whilst I despise all things Blair, the drive towards university was largely driven more from a corporate desire to avoid actually having to incur the costs of training people.

For the Blairites it was a way of reducing unemployment in the under 20s (get them to go to university, you don't have to pay benefits plus they kind of pay for it through student loans).

Just after the Tory party switch to a Swastika on a white circle, on a red background.

I would have thought a money bag with a dollar sign would be more appropriate.

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.

Of course if you really wanted to respect dead soldiers you'd do what the pig-fu**ers mate Becky did and bribe officials to pass you their private details so you can print them in your scummy little rag.

So it would appear that Corbyn didn't bow low enough...he did though stay to watch the entire parade, applauding the marchers and chatting with veterans before going to another wreath laying ceremony in his constituency - all this whilst all the other party leaders and their acolytes went off for a VIP lunch

I'm sure I've seen a similar scenario with Nigel Farage and the lefty papers.

Corbyn will not allow Labour MP's a free vote on military action in Syria.

How strange that as recently as 2013 he demanded a free vote when he was an obscure, backbencher:

Typical Trot tactics. When they get a bit of power, the inner Stalinist in all of them comes out.

Brilliant.... and from the Independent rather than a right-wing source.

I really hope that the fully paid-up Labour membership that got him elected to leader continue to bully and cajole the moderate free thinkers in the party so that Corbyn remains as leader and paves the way ahead for Labour's continued slide.

UKIP will probably become the official opposition at some point?

People should educate themselves. It's fully intentional. It is the plan of the elite to destabilise Europe, in hope that European nations will all huddle together, like chickens in the presence of a fox. One world government is their goal. Uniting Europe under the EU is stage one.
