Don't make me force you two to ignore each other.

Can I just ask why I should be made to ignore him? So I don't have a right to challenge his ideas? Just asking.

At the moment it's the equivalent of blowing raspberries at one another. Not especially constructive.

I do love how the media were asking Corbyn if he leaked that manifesto. Do they not know who hands them things, or is it that they just stopped recording it after News International sold all its sources out?

Well you are wrong spouting [Poor language removed] about teen pregnancies taking up housing,so I wont answer you,stick to the Daily Mail and channel 5,poverty porn for your entertsinment

So if Labour one and they gave housing benefit back to under 21's they wouldn't take up housing. Okay. I'll take that as the fact that you don't actually have an answer for it.

But don't worry, it's exactly want Labour want from people. They're going to overload them with this idea of a utopia and hope that because it's such a rosy idea that people like you don't question the things like how it's going to be funded, nor the likely impact it's going to have.

You stated Labour are encouraging teen pregnancies,when it is less than 2% of single parents,you then state that you know this through witnessing it,teen pregnancies have been dropping since a high between 1971 and 1974,when a certain Ted Heath was PM,you keep stating things as fact when they blatantly arent true,maybe we should take the children off them,give them a cardboard box and a corner on Shiel road, for the first time ever on here I am using the ignore function,you spout absolute nonsense and reek of old spice and right wing fume bye

Labour's manifesto seems perfectly resonable to me. I don't get the fuss.

If history repeats itself there will be a probably be a policy or two in it that's in the next Tory manifesto

next week, I think

Of course it seems reasonable. They've planned for a utopian society. Look beyond the superficial and wonder how on Earth it is possible?

I'm wondering when did the notion of a fairer society become so demonised and ridiculed?

It's ok to call the labour manifesto 1970's politics but when this Tory government preaches values from the 1040's that's called progressive?

When are the media going To rinse the tories for this claim that letting Corbin loose with the keys will make our kids pay for it when this government has borrowed more money than any other.

What may be superficial to you is a better life for many. Of course there are flaws in some of the proposals but at least there are decent principles behind them, things society should all be working towards.

Tory economics and self serving has screwed Ireland for decades. Never mind just managed decline, we also had facilitated war.

The manifesto has numerous policies that will in the mainstay appeal to the masses and some, at least in theory, are hard to argue against.

My main issue is that it's not as easy to balance good principles and populist pledges with the reality of the actual cost of implementing them.
