Default Jeremy Corbyn wants another general election?

Is he serious? the country is already in debt and he wants to waste 100s of millions on another pointless election process.

Time to retire old man

is there a link? if he does this is as bad as Nicola wanting a referendum, its not the time to go to the Polls, we have enough on our plate and its just him grasping at an opportunity to get into power with no thought for the country who are fed up to the back teeth with politicians and elections

Literally next to nobody in the country wanted a tory/dup coalition. It is odd we all settled on it pretty fast. I think the general public are just so sick of politics taking over the decade though.

Oh I disagree with that, I think people would still reluctantly vote, I just doubt people would pay as much attention to the news and media which would kinda make it pointless.

Selfish individual who thinks the time is right for him and grasping for what may be his only chance. I think he is underestimating public opinion and could welll be a decision he would end up regretting anyway.

Only a few are daft enough to put this country into the hands of the hard left. If they think things are bad now they will see things very differently in a few years’ time.

Corbyn’s Brexit gamble risks alienating core supporters
https://www.ft.com/content/aefc956e-...a-4574d7dabfb6

Labour leader senses opportunity to damage government with shift of position.

Quote:
Jeremy Corbyn’s decision to shift Labour’s position on Brexit was a carefully calculated move to inflict maximum pain on the government.
After a year of being deliberately vague about his vision of life after Britain leaves the EU, Mr Corbyn broke ground on Monday to support staying in a customs union....

....Mr Corbyn moved after sensing an opportunity to inflict a defeat on Mrs May in the House of Commons on Brexit, where Conservative rebels also back the customs union option.

Mrs May would then have two choices, Mr Corbyn said in an interview with ITV, with the ghost of a smile on his lips: “One is to go back and negotiate something different or the other one is to resign,” he said. “In which case we’ll have a general election.”
...and many of his voters are not at all happy at his u - turn. The dedicated euro - sceptic has left those principles at the door to try to get into the door of No 10. St. Jeremy is losing his halo.

I am afraid he is just another power crazed politician, he will say anything or do anything if he thinks it will garnish him votes.
Thinking of himself rather than the voting public.

That halo as always been very fragile as most fans are hard left socialists - a minority in the capitalist West. Most others are seeing how easily he gives up his so-called principles for a shot at being PM. He is not a strong leader and gives into Momentum and the hard left at every turn - and makes his real priorities very clear - he wants to be king of the castle at any cost.

He is happy to be a figure-head leader, with Momentun at the helm, with all the prestige that would give him with his name going down in the history books.

Because Teresa May is doing such a fine job in office isn't she ?!
I think another election ISN'T such a bad idea , maybe this time people will have more information and more understanding .

Which is the opposite of what we had for brexit, some people were too confused and didn't know what they were voting for and others didn't want to vote and were too indecisive .
