    Corbyn had the policies this country has desperately needed for decades, he was unfortunately an idealist idiot also. The so called 'left' of the Labour party continually let those who need their help down as much as those on the so called right let the nation down by remaining in the Labour party solely to prevent it from ever gaining power for the purposes it was formed. i talk a lot about status quo and people subjected to it being victims of it, in society in general, but also in the groups or enterprises they are involved in

    That Corbyn and all the so called 'left' or 'socialists' haven't yet grasped that over the last 40 years the UK media have made the words or phrases 'socialist' 'left wing' etc 'dirty words' that millions of people are now pre-dispositioned to have an automatic severe adverse reaction to, that no amount of reasoned and evidence based debate will cut through or overcome and that as such, self labelling themselves as 'left wing' or 'socialist' isn't a very good idea at all, reframing the argument that politics isn't about left or right but right or wrong to remove the years of adverse programing from politics and not self labelling is most likely a far better approach
    Corbyn is a thoroughly decent man but he was an absolute disaster as a leader, press did a total hatchet job on him like but at the end of the day people in the UK don't give a fuck about Isreal and Palestine when their council tax is flying up.
    Voting him in as leader set the party back decades and this fuck up of a govt is proof.
    After the last few weeks this Govt would be toast in an election........in a other era. Not now though, they'd still piss it tomorrow and that's a sad state for the opposition in this country.

    I didnt want Man-city win..because of obvious reasons. Having watched most of the game. Wolves have become intolerable
    Time wasting,play acting. blocking free kicks and so on.. All that comes from instructions prior to games.
    I respected Wolves and how they went about their business. Not anymore i hope they fall down the league..

    Corby was the best thing that could have happened to this country. Look at what the idiots - thicko twats cunt idiots who voted for Brexit and this shitshower have done.
    Corbyn was and is an anti-eu person. Was over here deriding the second votes and railing against the eu empire. You, 19 and tees seem to be unaware of his anti-eu rallying over here, and each of ye blame the media for his failing to win an election.

    He lost the election cause he's a weak leader.

    I'm fully aware of his anti EU stance, problem is he sat on the fence after becoming leader. I genuinely don't think he ever wanted the job. You're right about him being a weak leader, he us however a thoroughly decent man who believes in fairness, something this abhorrent shower of shit government don't know a thing about or care for.
    The defining moments in our lives are never planned.

    Well, it's all in a days work (in the style of Tony Ferrino) Although it's worked wonders for Fab as it seems after over 2 seasons of my incessant moaning about his incredible flaws, the penny has long overdue dropped for someone at the club and they are being addressed, he has looked like a completely different player since the West Ham game, improving on the game before with each next game, if he continues this improvement we might even get to a stage in which we're safe to play him as the No6 in our 433 with the high press

    Head on swivel, looking around at what's on and where the danger is, the most impressive part actually checking himself on several occasions when he's about to have one of his rushes of blood and vacate his area leaving a player wide open in it, I have enjoyed that especially in recent games. Communicating! ! ! Visually and verbally with all the other players

    It's like having a new player, a much better one than his twin brother who has been impersonating him the last 3 seasons

    I genuinely believe that referees should be forced to face the cameras post match, the same as the managers have to. I really wonder how the referee would explain the city penalty.
    I bet you can squeal like a pig!

    100% wrong tees, voting Blair as leader set the party back decades

    Blair was a Tory like his father - His policy was Tory - He infiltrated Labour and became their leader just in time to be the party of the establishment when everyone was completely and utterly sick ot death of the Tories and they'd have elected a Donkey wearing a Red Rosette - People voted Labour for change, they'd have enough, the UK desperately needed change, they didn't get change though did they, they got Tory Blair's New Fucking Labour

    THAT ^^^ Is what entirely fucked the UK and the Labour Party

    Go and check practically every single seats majority over each of Blair's terms, the once massive majorities were massively diminished term on term over Blair's time in office, because people voted for change and got more of the same with incredibly damaging and divisive Tory policy under the guise of Labour

    His failure to represent the workers and 'level up' as each party always promises but never does and his politics created and compounded the belief that "It doesn't matter who you vote for, they're all the same" it gave the SNP far FAR more traction and votes and is the reason Labour can no longer rely on 40 plus seats in Scotland

    It left a void and a mass of unrepresented working people and working class people and generations left behind for Farage, UKIP and far right groups to rock up and say THEY would represent them, the emergence of such parties and their agendas and politics filling the void Blair left is of course and undeniably THE single biggest cause of Brexit and of the vote splitting between Labour and such parties we've seen across so many Labour seats, Corbyn didn't do any of that Tees, Blair did all of that

    There are SO many more layers to the damage that Blair did, but I write enough essays here

    He was wise enough to know the EU was almost as corrupt as the British state. And yea he wasn’t a great politician. But that isn’t the problem as he had huge support. He was destroyed by Blairite factions within his own party. That was what stopped him beating May easily. And then once the establishment realised he was a genuine threat, he was totally vanquished with a relentless smear campaign.

    Corbyn is in effect just a poor mans Tony Benn, but a he is a very decent human being and one who would have changed so much for the better.
