Good grief. I hadn't realised I had set up my stall with terrorists and rabid communists.

I presume someone has alerted the police to have him arrested? Or is it that actually these allegations are all a bit baseless?

We are a very tolerant society and not condemning the IRA killers is not illegal in the UK.

Whether you wish to lend your support to some-one who refuses to condemn the bombers and killers is up to your conscience.

His support for the IRA goes back 40 years and his refusal to condemn the bombers is recorded on BBC iplayer for all to hear.

It's up to you to research the background of your heroes.

Corbyn is still living his student days, only now he has a lot of light on him and he loves it.....theres no way he will give up the leadership, not because he believes in what he is doing or that he wants to be the next PM.....he is just a sad, jam making, leftie fool who is enjoying his 15 minutes of fame.....

Agree with you. He's loving the limelight after having been ignored most of his life. Him and McDonnell and that little creep/snot from Momentum James Schneider.

However, I'm not sure history will be kind to any of them.

I don't rate Owen Smith any more than Corbyn but I guess I'm not the target audience....

The overall quality on the opposition benches is poor right now.

I have a feeling that it would be a more effective opposition under Owen Smith though, which is good for everyone.

JC is a decent fellow who says what a lot of people think.

Why are you lot all so anti him?

His economic policies would be a disaster for Britain - him and McDonnell want the government to be able to print money.

Corbyn's QE for the people jeopardises the Bank of England's independence

The Bank’s independence prevents the government being tempted to finance pet projects with money-printing

You forgot to mention the fact that you have set up your stall with anti Semites too.

Nice bunch.

Being a Communist isn't illegal AIUI and nor should it be IMHO. I'm not allowed to say what I think of Communists but it isn't a very nice word.

Supporting terrorists is a bit more problematic legally, again AIUI, but he seems to get away with it.

Out of interest do you support the PLO and/or the IRA? Vis-a-vis the Commies what do you think about the tens of millions killed in the name of that horrible ideology?

Now look here, thats a bit strong isn't it?

Are you saying that hundreds of thousands of us are terrorists and communists?

Terror has nothing to do with Corbynism. Where is that in the Corbyn manifesto?

Why can't you debate the issue at hand?

Theresa May mocks 'unscrupulous' Jeremy Corbyn in first clash at PMQs

Theresa May has mocked Jeremy Corbyn as an "unscrupulous boss" who exploited Labour Party rules to further his own career as the two clashed for the first time at Prime Minister's Questions.

Mrs May won loud cheers from the Conservative benches as she sought to twist the knife in the Labour leader over the turmoil in his party's ranks.
"I am interested that he refers to the situation of some workers who might have some job insecurity and potentially unscrupulous bosses," she told Mr Corbyn.
"I suspect that there are many members on the Opposition benches who might be familiar with an unscrupulous boss.
"A boss who doesn't listen to his workers, a boss who requires some of his workers to double their workload and maybe a boss who exploits the rules to further his own career. Remind him of anybody?"
As Mr Corbyn - who is facing a leadership challenge from Owen Smith - complained that there were "many people in this country struggling with insecure jobs", he was met with raucous laughter from Tory MPs.

Ha Ha Ha! Turns out she might be as funny as David Cameron at PMQs.

Mrs. May may currently think that mocking job insecurity is a good way to score points in the Commons, but I'll doubt she'll be having as much fun when the brexit induced unemployment stats start trickling in.
