It's sad how completely brainwashed people are. Ye do realise what happened in 2007/8? With no left wing governments to blame? Worldwide financial meltdown and then what happened? All the capitalist conservatives became socialist cow it suited them!!!! Take our debt and let the masses pay it!!!!

f**king ridiculous.

This is a certainly a valid point.

There are a few on this board who continually bash the "leftie loons" and give about their taxes going to welfare scroungers yet have absolutely no problem financing the gambling losses of the wealthy who continue to live lavish lifestyles.

Major problem with socialism around the world is by and large those it benefits are very quick to pull the ladder up with them when their lot improves.

Plenty here well able to go on about the leftie loons etc while being first in the queue to claim overtime, travel expenses and enjoy the weekend etc. All benefits extracted the hard way over the years.

Imo anyway, the best countries in the world to live in always had a strong socialist party (as in fairness they also had a strong conservative presence).

I would agree with the last part of this. This boy is unlikely to get into power but something needs to be done to shake it up a bit at least. Milliband has set the labour party back years and the lib dems going into coalition has effectively killed them off.

The next party in line at present is the UKIP.

Labour at least will move some way back towards their real principles. Blair wasn't a real labour guy and the mroe time goes on the more you realise that he really wasn't a good guy at all.

If Corbyn isn't successful so be it but currently Labour are very much in the doldrums and are going backwards. They need a shake up and hopefully he'll shake up the tories.

Interestingly he also believes in a united ireland so I'm sure the unionists will love him.

From Twitter, what Corbyn and Cameron were up to in the 1980's:

I didn't know Cameron was in Adam and the Ants!

If Cameron is Prince Charming I guess that makes Osborne Baron Charming, or the future 18th Baronet Charming of Ballintaylor, County Tipperary, and Ballylemon, County Waterford.

[Soup an Samajiz]

Knew he reminded me of somebody...

Anybody that has watched Game of Thrones knows what's coming.. he'll have the Queen marched down Oxford Street in the nip shortly *Shame

[Denn Forever]

When will he have his first Prime Ministers Questions?
Full house for that.

The Daily Express has already anticipated that:

Blair destroyed the Labour party. Milliband was just trying to live up to that legacy, the muppet.

Think you will find that Blair made the Labour party electable by taking this step to the left, while it might please those who want to see something other than the middle ground hogs it will make them totally unelectable at the next GE.

All well and good having these great ideals in opposition when you don't have to do anything about them, its an all together different thing to make yourself relevant to the electorate and get yourself into government. Like or loathe Blair but that is exactly what he did for the labour party.
