you do not have to be a tory to dislike Corbyn 80% of his MPS gave him the vote of no confidence - you have a poor memory backed by Momentum and Maclusky he gets in on a poor system - if he loses this one he will stay - I voted labour all my life I will not vote for a pacifist left winger ok!

I don't think you can put Corbyn in the same bracket as Blair and Brown.
No just a humble back bencher who has opposed most good Labour policies all his life!

I must have missed the bit where they re-nationalised utilities and rail, advocated higher taxes, banned the selling of council houses, outlawed PFI, refused to countenance unnecessary war, outlawed overcharging the NHS for drugs, introduced a financial transaction tax, taxed companies at source rather than allow them to siphon money offshore, outlawed "sweetheart deals" on tax for big corporations and stopped mortgage relief for landlords, thereby allowing young people to buy their first home on a level playing field. Those would all be good labour policies, I must have been on holiday when they enacted them.
On the ‘shoot-to-kill’ policy
What was reported: Speaking in the aftermath of the 2015 Paris attacks, Corbyn told reporter Laura Kuenssberg: “I am not happy with a shoot-to-kill policy in general. I think that is quite dangerous and I think can often be counterproductive.” The video has since gone viral after last Saturday’s (June 3) tragic terrorist attack in London Bridge, with many claiming Corbyn would apply the same logic in response to a future attack.
What he actually said: In a rare case, the BBC Trust ruled in January 2017 that Corbyn’s quotes were placed out of context. Instead of outright stating that police shouldn’t shoot to kill in response to a terror attack, he said he was against the military policing Britain’s streets. A vital part of the quote was omitted from the BBC’s original video. He said: “Of course you’d bring people on to the streets to prevent and ensure there is safety within our society, much better that’s done by the police than security services, much better we have strong and effective community policing, neighbourhood policing and a cohesive society that brings people together.”
In a speech in Carlisle on Saturday night (June 3), Corbyn clarified his position. He supported the police to apply “whatever force is necessary” in response to an attack, while also stating that Conservative cuts to the forces needed to be reversed.

If we arm our police, it's only a matter of time before someone innocent is killed. Shooting 3 blokes who are stabbing random strangers is not a shoot to kill policy, it's an armed response to an attack.
Being armed with a truncheon likethr officer who got shot on Sat night is not ideal either wounded only thankfully but in this day and age they need arming!

I'm not saying we shouldn't arm more police, I think that is a no-brainer. But having a shoot to kill policy is dangerous. I live in South Yorkshire and if all police were armed here someone at a football match would probably get shot!
A bit rambling that Joey.

I've grown to love it though. Equal parts e.e. cummings and Jim Royle.
Trufull though!
Joe Royle used to certainly ramble through defences
