  1. I have a theory. http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/34232177/jeremy-corbyn-young-people-have-to-be-heard I do not believe that Corbyn is expecting to win the next election. I think he is playing a longer game, planting a seed that may grow. He is looking to empower those that he can, reach out to those he has always sought to help and establish a young empowered and active socialist base to continue his ideology and drive Labour in the future. He will not compromise his principles to do something as vulgar as win popular favour, indeed, he is no idiot and will be aware that in the current political climate he couldn't possibly win an election, He will however have belief that a longer term revolution, beginning now can spring from his leadership. It plays to his strengths as an idealist, as a lifelong martyr to his own principles. It also explains why he is so willing to go against political convention with the media and things such as PMQ's. He doesn't care for the frills, his endgame vision is that of a socialist Britain, embraced by the young all buying into his ideals who make it happen later.
  2. An away point. Ok.
  3. Cedric injured?
  4. Something that had everything to do with sexism rather then political leaning. Irrelevant
  5. Even if it turns out to be a case of cutting off your noses to spite your face? All well and nice having principles but if you cannot appeal to the middle ground then surely it's just doing more harm then good?
  6. Someone in MLS is 'doing a Levy?'
  7. What a beautiful moment. Conservatives and Labour supporters alike united in joy.
  8. Quite astonishing. Hope he is a better orator then his deputy.
  9. BBC sources. Corbyn secured the 50% of the vote in the first round. He is the new leader of the opposition. Hillarious.
  10. Damnit. Cannot quite take total advantage. So close but so far. Marylebone.
  11. Thank you sir, but my goodness that cuts things fine. Very bold.
  12. We have had our differences, but.... I'm aghast, superb. My response is West Acton.
  13. Ah Labour. The party that believed in the wider spread of popular support, and was destroyed by it.
  14. Indeed sir, it takes one to know one.
  15. With respect, the troll did say 'Top' clubs.
  16. It's always easier to preach idealistic nonsense when it doesn't impact you directly.
  17. Excellent, look forward to seeing this.
  18. We all know the answer to that one.
  19. Always knew that move as the East Street pull-back. Heathrow Terminal 4
  20. If he agrees to half of his outstanding wages in one hit in exchange for a chance to find alternative employment, quite a lot.
  21. Feeling a chill. Caledonian Road.
  22. Passport and ticket required when I travelled from Waterloo to Brussels in April.
  23. A terrible shame. A defeat for dignity.
  24. Similarly, had a call trying to keep me offering the package I had for £72 a month previously for £52. Still told them where to go though.
  25. Good man. Surprised you are complaining of blandness though.... perhaps too rich and overwhelming for your pallet?
