I'm not a right-winger at least by U.S standards, but if it came down to Tory and someone like Corbyn I would definitely go with Tory. The current Labour party leader is acceptable however (assuming he keeps his leadership). Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like Corbyn present a risk to those who like the status-quo. Anyone who speaks about stoping companies influencing policy, making corporations and the very rich from pay their taxes, closing loopholes, lowering taxes for the poor, expanding public services, open acknowledgment of the issues with unchecked capitalism, being anti-war or exposing the truth that trickle down economics isn’t a real thing really upsets them. for example, Corbyn had many ‘controversy’ while opposition leader. His first being exposing and remove MP’s from the party that had used public funds for second homes and lavish dinners. Wild. It’s unfortunate, but as you can see from this thread, it’s all about distraction and whataboutism rather then acknowledging the issues actually at hand. Capitalism and the statues-quo can only continue if you keep the poor poor and the rich rich, and they want that. Sad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Communists are being dismissed as pro-Putin because they believe in demilitarisation and in the provocative expansion of NATO. When people are blinded with black and white views, it’s difficult to deal with delicate matters such as this horrific war For people to continue being Putin's apologists after all we've seen is mind boggling. Are you really going to blame NATO and the fact that Ukraine has an army for this war? Russia literally said they had no issue with Finland and Sweden joining NATO but you'll still push this Kremlin propaganda. What is wrong with you? Demilitarization is good, but only if you get every country on earth on board. This idea that you support unilateral demilitarization of Ukraine because you support "peace" is ludicrous. You are only helping a brutal dictator who massacres his own people, and neighbors of his country achieve his goals of subjugating more nations around him. Shame on people who support this.

Benji 20,113 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Slightly off topic but whilst we’re all discussing politics in here today, I’ll share my view on Corbyn I’ll preface my comment by saying I have voted Labour since I was allowed to vote, with my first general election in 2015. I whole heartedly supported every policy Corbyn put forward EXCEPT his stance on demilitarisation. The world’s relations with China and Russia is very fragile and the threat they actually pose to world peace is dramatically unreported as it is not in the public’s interest to be that clued up and living in fear. I voted for Corbyn regardless. Theresa May wanted to cut defence spending but very quickly changed her mind when the facts were laid out infront of her, I have no doubt that Corbyn would have been the same.

I do wonder how successful this will be tho, in Labours favour is that this government, even with Bozo staying on for the interim literally cannot continue.

He's not unhinged like the previous Labour leader. And I would never bring myself to vote for a pro-Putin antisemite. Maybe I would abstain if the tory choice is also bad, but would never vote for him. But anyway... I think we all made our points here about the potential replacement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
