So you honestly believe had the tories been in office they would've stopped the global financial crisis? Seriously? If it was Cameron instead of Tory-lite Blair we would've avoided the crash. Rubbish. And that's fair enough, I just ask people what the basis is for not trust Corbyn and trusting May more and usually it's just recycled BS that's existed for a long time and been debunked consistently. It's desperate and cringeworthy imo, this election has never seemed to consist of any hardcore facts, just scaremongering and "if you don't vote for us you are f***ed and have the mental capacity of a 4 year old". At least Corbyn doesn't resort to that and stays consistent with his message. The tories in this GE have been like a re run of the EU referendum.

How is it the voice of reason when as always it doesn't explain WHY. The business argument has to be the most central argument to our economy yet not one Tory anywhere has explained with any real credibility the basis on which our economy will crash under the policies in labours manifesto. I find it outrageous that you can scrutinise a set of costings to the extent they have been scrutinised whilst the opposition simultaneously refuses to release anything. When these arguments get put forth it's usually the moment the media and tories start bringing up the IRA/shooting to kill/hitting the red button.

No, what I am saying is that the capitalist system is the best we can hope for in this imperfect world to ensure economic progress and material well-being and freedom.

We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

As in all elections it depends on how it's going to affect the pockets of voters in the marginals. People will no doubt see Corbyn puts their mortgage repayments at risk more than May. Youngsters don't have mortgages and for Corbyn to have any success he needs a near 100% young people turn out, but because they don't have the responsibilities of home owners or home keepers they won't turn out to vote.

I actually wouldn't mind seeing what Corbyn can do as long as he goes asap once disaster begins. Looking at the hundreds of Blairites behind their front bench it wouldn't take long.

Problem is we have Brexit and Corbyn would get rolled over.

Herein lies the main problem for Corbyn, sadly they love to talk a good game on twitter but a large number of them won't actually bother to turn out. I was reading an article the other day saying they he would have to rely on the young and weirdly the top 1% to win. The problems they stated was the no show of young voters and also a lot of very wealthy people saying they'd vote Corbyn to look fashionable and compassionate etc.
