I voted Labour until Corbyn came along I don't want my gardens taxed thank you.....

Where in our manifesto does it say we're going to do that mate?
 
joey you wouldn’t vote Labour even if it was led by yourself, with that Tom Bower book as deputy leader

Same place as it said they would honour the referendum result.....

No, I'm being serious - where does it that that Labour will tax your garden?
 
....we’ll soon find out if Corbyn’s Momentum Labour are as fantastic as some on here suggest. After all, they are only up against a dreadful Tory Government.

For 'dreadful tory government' read the establishment. I don't get how it isn't a given that all forces have been mobilised against him personally and that very little attention is drawn on his policies.
Is it just 'he is a liability' because...(fill in with any line from Telegraph or Mail) or his policies are an alternative to the suffering of millions in this country, the erosion of working rights, or the wholesale privatisation of the NHS and as such would appeal to the majority of the electorate?
They, those who benefit from austerity, profit from it, all are fighting their corner, why is it wrong for someone to fight on the other side?

...this Conservative Government is very dangerous as far as i’m concerned, potentially more dangerous than any other in my lifetime. The anti-Corbyn feeling, however, is not just the fault of the Tory press, nor is the dismay at this Momentum driven Labour Party only the fault of the Tory press.

After 41 years working in the public sector, I’ll be voting Labour because I know what Tory Governments do to public services. My daughter is a Consultant Surgeon, she will vote Labour because she sees daily what a Tory Government does to the NHS. My son was a teacher, he’ll vote Labour because he saw what a Tory Government did to Education.

Saying that, I remain dismayed at Corbyn and this Momentum Labour movement. I’ll be chuffed if they win, though.

What do you think of Mcdonnell's manifesto though mate, and the measures taken to try and curb and in some cases reverse some of the worst attacks on the public sector? And if you are positive can it be easily separated from the over arching culture of Corbynism?

I don't have a lot of time for Momentum (long story) and while I have always found Corbyn to be a personable and genuine individual he isn't my style of leader. However the policies I think are really good and give us a opportunity to reverse much of the nonsense that has gone on in this country over a prolonged period. Nothing is perfect in life so I suppose I put up with the above to get that.

...I think the last Manifesto was innovative and refreshing.
