I'm still trying to envisage the 'Parallel Universe' in which Corbyn and his Cronies (that sounds like a 1970s pop group, right ?) live ....
Still trying ....
Late 60's early 70's where communist backed unions run the UK.Still trying ....
Comrades! Our glorious leader has identified inequalities in the security services of our country compared with others around the world and this is an opportunity to ensure we remain progressive and ensure the rest of the world know as much about our security services, methods and military capabilities as we do. I am convinced. Convinced! I tell you that they will return the favour, so we will know what other countries are capable of. Its fair. Its progresive. Its labour. Forward together!!

If you want to get a good idea of it will be like, watch the re-runs of The Sweeney that are on ITV 4 this time of a week day morning.
Love watching that for what it is but also spotting empty streets, proper boozers, and gawd awful wallpaper we had to cover our text books in.......Jaaaaaaaaaag..............
PS. When I said unions run the UK, I meant as in open power in the alternative universe. Red Robbo on the throne in Buck house..........
So following the shambles of the expenses and the correct way of doing it ie signed off fully receipted just like any company it turns out Corbyns crew want to get rid of it and simply have an allowance as it wastes time filling in expense forms....

Words fail me. Surely that's what they pay their wives/mistresses/daughters to do- fill out forms?The lack of awareness is truly mind boggling.
Frankly the more forms they have the better imo, the longer they're spending on paperwork the less time they're devoting to crippling the country with the next big state project.

"Digital citizen passport" should be easy to implement. It already exists, is called Government Gateway and has been up and running for years. It is used among other things for filing tax returns, which might explain why Corbyn clearly hasn't heard of it.
and GG is shockingly s
t - not that that should surprise us

Just a quick one, the Open Knowledge Library... have none of his acolytes told him about Wikipedia?
Thats no good though, its not state controlled!https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_in_North_Ko...
I'm trying to imagine what a government-driven "digital revolution" would look like. Apart from prodding Openreach into providing better broadband in rural areas (which don't usually vote Labour anyway) I'm struggling. The Internet seems to be doing just fine without government help.
It's fking mental. It talks of cooperative and social enterprises to bring producers and consumers together to cut costs. Has he never heard of Uber, AirBnB, Just-Eat, Fiverr and a million similar sites already doing precisely that, increasing choice and lowering costs?
I had a logo designed recently for a wee test project. £3.84 by someone in Bangladesh. How's his stty government co-op going to better that?
It looks and reads as if it's been lifted from a 1997 manifesto tbh. Which wouldn't surprise me, he does like to live in the past.

I'd say McDonnell is much more dangerous
A very nasty individual infact.
I'm inclined to agree. The power behind the teeny tiny throne. A very nasty individual infact.

Jeremy does strike me as a puppet. A "useful idiot". He is not very bright, does not have an inquisitive mind, is seduced by dogma. McDonnell looks far more like a puppet master. I'm not sure there is only one though: more of an anarchosyndicalist politburo, taking it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week...
Denis! There's some lovely filth here!technodup said:

Oddly enough: "For the Internet we plan a National Grid for Learning which will bring to teachers up-to-date materials to enhance their skills, and to children high-quality educational materials." Labour manifesto, 1997.irocfan said:
