Corbyn visiting the Chinese community in Manchester today.

Respect to him, but then he spoils it by claiming all white working class people are racist.

Missed that. What has he said?

All the clinical advice I've seen suggests that young people aren't at that great a risk. The elderly on the other hand...

Accused everyone in the UK, apart from HIMSELF of course, of being racist towards Chinese people.

I've just looked, not seen it anywhere. I would've thought that sort of thing would've been headline news.

I've just looked, not seen it anywhere else. I would've thought that sort of thing would've been headline news.

He was basically saying that since the virus outbreak, all Chinese communities in the UK, have faced 'racist' abuse.

Disgusting if true, but I have not seen this highlighted in the media.

Corbyn, blind to antisemitism, sees 'racism' everywhere apparently.

lol lol You’re back tracking a bit from saying he was calling all white working class people racist like!?
FWIW, a lot of the reporting behind the spread of this has included racist undertones.
Bite me

He's a middle class Islington leftie. he's see's all white working class people as Brexiteer racists.

He seems to hate the country, he was seeking to lead a few months ago.

In case anybody was wondering, he said no such thing

This is not really the thread for this but Corbyn has been largely critical of the Eu and despite his many faults seems to be largely a man of principle.
Can’t see ‘man of the people’, ‘voice of the working class’ Johnson visiting Chinese communities like. Remember many of the Chinese communities will have friends and family that they will be concerned about.

‘he seems to hate the country’ lol lol lol lol

Wirral still looking like 28 days later or has the virus leaked out yet?
