1 person on there own means nothing. There is a trend however, and if Corbyn doesn't stem the tide, it will only get worse from here

It takes a while to sort out the wheat from the chaff.

I was aware that some of the old Labour Lords have a vested interest in privatizing the NHS. Warner will probably be worrying about the shares he bought in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.

Here we go, didn't take long to find this: Lord Warner: Former adviser to Apax Partners, one of the leading global investors in the healthcare sector. Current director of Sage Advice Ltd. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...40-peers-84917

Labour lost voters because of their fears under a Labour Government about the abysmal Ed Miliband, our failed debt-ridden economy, our welfare, tax system, the unions and immigration,

If anything, those fears have intensified AND widened with Corbyn as leader, so can ANYONE on here - Socialist, Right Wing or Monster Raving Looney Party supporters - tell me JUST HOW Warner is WRONG in claiming that Labour are now "Unelectable"?

The thing is........He's right

Kizzy 20-10-2015 08:07 PM

We're still debt ridden, we've had cut after cut and the debt gets worse... how is this seen as progress?
One peer with his nose in the private sector trough does nothing to convince me of anything.

I don't believe Corbyn wants or thinks to be elected. What I think he does, at least how I perceive it...is that he is trying to make people THINK. It's too easy to make people nonchalant about what is happening within their societies.

He is trying to distinguish political parties, trying to become less homogenised.

In an age where we are looking for alternatives to the general meh...even the brief rise of ukip...I think attempts to engage and debate should be embraced.

Of course Labour are unelectable at the moment but they are merely weeks in and they still have four and a half years to go.

What Warner should of said is, "Corbyn will ruin my chance to pillage the NHS and syphon off the tax payers money into my bank account".

The Tories along with some Labour and LibDem MP's have spent the last 20 years setting up the privatization of the NHS so they can retire into the businesses they have set up and profit from those private industries they engineered. Corbyn wants to undo all that preparation.

I have a feeling that Corbyn will not lead Labour into the 2010 election but he will have re-defined their policies by the time he goes.

As long as most of his policies remain, policies which are seen as new and challenging to the younger voters, then I have feeling he would be just as happy to have achieved that.
