Are you aware of his views/actions with regards to the IRA?
Similar to those which led to the GFA were they not?Why the hatred? Because here is a man who hates modern Britain. A man who despises the capitalist system that has made almost everyone better off. A man who loathes the successful in our society. A man who would seek to destroy profitable businesses, via his bizarre Marxist beliefs. A man who is so filled with bitterness that he will cosy up to terrorists and share a platform with those who would destroy us.
He has a dark, bitter heart that bears a hatred of the very system that has made this country great. Thank heavens that made him unelectable.

Corbyn is basically on the wrong side of everything.
Pro IRA
Pro Brexit
Pro Dianne Abbots arse
He is the worst traits of the left moulded into a person.
Careful now. If you repeat that 3 times Techiedave will materialiseCorbyn is basically on the wrong side of everything.

And for what it’s worth Jeremy Corbyn is representative of a hollowed out form of leftism:
1) no real working class (as in the original point of labour) politics
2) focussed on a form of proto woke left wing politics that arose in London during the early 80s
3) which was largely preoccupied with anti America/Britain which in turn defines his antipathy to Israel, U.K. history and his weird cozying up with the IRA and Hamas
The man is a walking student activist and that he still behaves like that at the age of 71 is astonishing and even admirable. It certainly should render him utterly unfit to be the Labour Party leader neverminding Primeminister.
Add then a dose of enormous hypocrisy (Brexit I’m looking at you) and you have an utterly contemptible sack of s
t.

They obviously have had their fingers in their ears for the last few years as momentum has marched through local party after local party.
While momentum is active within labour it will not be receiving my vote FWIW. Corbyn is a side show. That said good riddance.

For me it's the whole London Labour party. Banging a very loud and obnoxious drum for "equality", diversity, multiculturalism, feminism, misandry, socialism, anti-Zionism and a load of other polititcs I find repugnant.
Corbyn himself seems a reasonably nice and genuine bloke, but his politics as above are what turns me.

For me it was all the Palestinian flag waving seemingly at every possible opportunity. Labour annual conference was like something out of Gaza! They were somehow totally obsessed with the cause, at the expense of other things closer to home.
My favourite surrealist moment from the previous election was the protester carrying a Socialist Worker Say No to Racism placard, telling the interviewer how Jews are greedy and like to hoard money.Biggy Stardust said:
Answer this: what has Corbyn ever achieved? Ever.
He increased the labour party membership, and not by piddling amounts. It became the biggest single party by membership in the UK. I seem to remember reading that it was the biggest single party by membership in the EU.He was, for a short time, something of a phenomenon.
The odd thing is that pro-brexit posturing by remain Johnson got him voted in and weak remain posturing by Corbyn, who, like most of the hard left, was pro-brexit, lost him his top job.
I doubt labour membership will hold onto its numbers, although it will probably do much better than the tories.
I'm sure he's a great guy and MP, cycling round Islington saving the poor while claiming zero expenses which also makes him a man of integrity but
Socialism
Antisemitism

ts & giggles, plus other folks doing the same thing? Also what did increased membership accomplish?At the risk of repeating myself, what has he ever actually achieved?
I actually share a lot of his political views . . . and still can't stand the guy.
He strikes me as almost a British version of Trump . . . too stupid to realise he's stupid (or to recognise anti-Semitism for that matter!), and a thin skin wounded pride when criticised as he can't recall ever being wrong about anything.
Even then, I probably wouldn't mind too much, except for the veneration from equally stupid people!

As someone with no political allegiance who is happy to have voted for all three of the main ones (when they have been the three main ones), as well as Soo the Panda when it was getting silly three years ago, I’m slightly confused by how vilified and universally despised JC appears to have become compared with anyone else in politics. Blair went to war for something to do, Cameron gave us the Brexit debacle and the current lot are truly pushing he the boundaries of what you can get away with by creaming off millions to their mates with nothing as much as a raised eyebrow and seemingly lying quite a lot.
Is it all the anti-Semitism because based on numbers I can’t believe the others haven’t got similar factions in their own ranks which go without being investigated. Is it the threat of hard left policies killing the country because a lot of these were presented quite sensibly. Was it the lack of a coherent Brexit policy when clearly nobody had one? Or was it the billionaire media owners who wanted to stay that way and convinced the red wall that Boris and JRM et al cared about them.
As I said, I’ve never seen in 36 years such a hammering in an election and subsequently a concentrated effort to expunge someone from public life and was wondering what he’d done to provoke these reactions.

A convicted IRA bomber he called "a political prisoner."
He shared his office with a convicted IRA terrorist.
He held a minutes silence for IRA terrorists.
The man is evil.
His policies mental.
He is dangerous.
He spends a lot of time sharing a stage or a photoshoot with terrorists.
It goes on...
