More dishonesty & staged events from Corbyn & his team:

They really love these videos. Forget Venezuela, the person Corbyn is beginning to remind of most is Kim Jong Un. Endless staged clips of Corbyn being met by adoring fans. Total narcissism from Corbyn himself. Ruthless response to anybody within his party who dares to oppose him. Demands from his followers that anybody who's criticized him in the past issues a gushing apology or faces de-selection etc etc. Nasty stuff......

Corbyn appears to be running out of ideas already. If this is the level that he's sinking too. Guess that's the problem when your own "party" won't back you up.

Love this comment:

If there is a strain on your surgery you wouldn't be able to be a Labour activist, chair of the Labour group on the London Assembly and have time to show a tramp round your surgery.

Did Corbyn bother to ask the GP how much he gets paid? One wonders. Certainly be in 6 figures.

Don't get me wrong the Government has tried, but for example the public sector pay freeze is now making NHS delivery unsustainable apparently. That isn't good enough.

I think we all got that from the get go. You are concerned the restraints on public expenditure are effecting the levels of public service delivery. The real point is that if you then decide to relax the restraints, i.e. spend more money, you need to raise taxes to fund that additional expenditure.

Or as I said before; "There would be tax rises to enable these services that "must be afforded" to be provided. Which is just a different kind of austerity."

Why is it called austerity?

It's simply living within your means.

We'd all like every government department to have endless funds but it can't be done.

As a country (as in all countries) eventually the borrowing has to stop and we HAVE to live within our means. It can be no other way.

And if there were any doubt about that we only need to look at Greece.

QUE??? Campaigning mode? Doesn't he realise the GE is over and the LP lost?

Out of power for 5 years Jeremy- that's how it works.
