The problem is what she'll be remembered for.Sad to say the Labour Party has always found a way to shoot itself in the foot. Corbyn's wife's business practices are a prime example.

Believe me I wish they weren't possible,but finding any Labour MP with true Socialist credentials is like finding a Scouser at Anfield.

There are varying degrees of socialism mate.

Sadly true.But having the Leader of the Opposition pontificate on the plight of those worst effected by austerity while pocketing a pay rise roughly equivalent to the amount a single man on benefits has to live on for a year,would make my grandfather turn in his grave.

I'm a socialist, and have zero problem with people earning a higher wage.

I just believe that we should tax it more effectively, and at a higher rate.

I like you have no problems with a worker earning his worth,it's the hypocrisy I have the problem with.

I don`t doubt her credentials mate, but that doesn`t change the fact that she`s a liability when she`s let loose in front of a camera or she`s allowed to speak in public.

It's improved my life no end. Do please pass my thanks to Jeremy the next time you see him.

With the nicest will in the world though Bruce, that's the governments fault. If Corbyn negotiated a bad deal he should be accountable for doing so. However making someone accountable for what other people do wrong is a tad nonsensical.

I'm talking of the Labour strategy to sit back and do nothing because the Tory balls up benefits them. It doesn't benefit those on the receiving end of the balls up, which perhaps a more deliberate opposition might have done. He's been passive not because it suits Britain, but because it suits Labour. That's poor.

No, I’m not. I’m saying if there was a second referendum on the country’s EU position, pushed forward by the opposition, it would be far better than sitting back and watching things go down in flames so people can come in and act the hero. It’d be far better to stabilise the situation and then see where we are. If that prompts a call for another general election then so be it.

Your comparison to the 2nd World War is so bad that it’s actually laughable. In the scenario you’ve given above the opposition would have sat until there was a swastika flying over Big Ben before they made a peep about changing direction.

Be honest with yourself, you want Brexit to go through so the country goes to absolute pot, so that the Labour Party becomes incumbent for many years to come. Sod the people that suffer. It’s so transparent, utterly sickening and shows the nasty Left for what it actually is, a bunch of power hungry rats with no actual interest in the good of the people, just their own agenda.

Or alternatively people want to respect a democratic, even if sometimes some of the reasons people voted for it were not from their own ideological standpoint and make the best of it by negotiating the most favourable conclusion possible given the situation we are in.

I'm also a tad confused as to why it is "sickening", "nasty" or "power hungry rats" to want a political party someone supports to be in power for a foreseeable period?

Surely the really power hungry people are those who feel they can overturn the biggest vote in the history of the country because they don't like the outcome? I would say that was more a sign of tyrannical behaviour?

He hasn't sat back though. He has articulated a position on Brexit. You happen to have a different position to him which is fair enough.

There are limits as to what you can do practically in his position though. You are well aware of this and it seems opportunistic to attack him for not doing things it is not feasibly possible for him to.

He does not have the arithmetic to implement the change currently. If we have an election this situation may change. Hence why his logical call is to push for an election so he can implement his policy.
