Default Corbynistas - middle class moralists who want to control

Corbyn's nanny state instincts make Blair look liberal in comparison. Thoughts!

As it was clear he was referring to the Corbynistas view of those at the bottom of the pile that is a spurious comment.

There's nothing like 'news' from a reliable source and this is NOTHING like news and the source is from a site that at the very best is usually described as ''extreme left/marxist''.

''Nevermind the source/intent. Just listen to the spin i've put on my distorted headline''. That's the result and desperation for manufactured outrage for you!

Massive FAIL.

It's no coincidence that some of his biggest supporters on here are well educated.

There is a lot of truth in that article which is why some will be on a mission to tear the source to bits.

Really well said.
Nothing much to add from me but the obsession of Corbyn haters to keep talking about him is now amusing.

It now also seems the more he is talked about,the better his ratings go.

My perception was always that he's the choice of "Champagne Socialists" tbh. Otherwise, I don't have much of an opinion about him; I've not really agreed with him on much, and all he does is spout platitudes, but otherwise he's just sort of ... there, as far as I'm concerned.

That of course works both ways - the more defensive Corbyn supporters get i.e. Their constant response to such threads - the more people know how worried they really are.

The pretence that all is well in Corbyn's camp. He is the next Milliband.

I think those on both sides who have strong vehemence make themselves look silly tbh.

That's one of those things that's meant to sound really cunning and 'aha, you got me!' but really just comes off as hollow and contrary.

Radiohead are soooooooo good, but I couldn't possibly listen to them until they're struggling to pay the gas bills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think you should confuse people finding your threads really irritating with any sort of worry about the actual content of the threads, Brillo.

I know people are going to start droning "well just ignore them if they are so irritating" but that's not always the beat advice, is it? I mean... You don't "just ignore" intestinal parasites and hope they go away, do you? You swallow a pill and flush them out .

Or when no response to a previous post you try again.

Don't pretend you are not having fun - the chance to insult the poster rather than the post time and again is just too satisfying for you to resist.

One would then be entitled to question as to who is really the 'parasite' and/or whether it is just a common case of the pot calling the kettle.

Way to go - just get another of my posts closed - where there's a will there's a way!!

Depends if you think derailing threads that were already trash is worse than clogging up the entire thread list with an endless stream of inane sh*te .
