The whole banking system is screwed despite the new protective measures. Everything is based on a gigantic property bubble that nobody can afford to burst. This is massively propped up by the London bubble- and by bubble I mean money laundering cesspool.

I'm glad you felt inspired by Jezza, I'm not even close to 50 but my political beliefs have never been stronger. As I've said before in other threads I voted labour several times in the past and was a long standing member of Unite, Jezza inspired me to cancel my membership. He is weak and his moral high ground is a danger to the nation.
Equally I believe the last few months have shown May to be a disaster too. Seems to be a theme in most elections these days - the choice sucks.

I'll agree there has never been a Labour like Jezza. That's probably a good thing given some of his leanings. He thinks he's Robin Hood and a Diane Abbott is his Maid Marian. The man would destroy the country or give it away.

I'm glad you like him so much, tell you what let's revisit this thread in 5 years and you can rub my face in his awesomeness. He'll be the new Nick Clegg

For the record I rate politicians of all stripe alongside lawyers and dog faeces. Corbyn does seem to have some morality, but like all Labour politicians he thinks unicorns # economic skittles.
He also cosied up to terrorist murderers, and has slept with the revolting sub-human racist Dianne Abbot (spits in disgust). Any nominal male that would sleep with that abomination, and let it on to his front bench should never be allowed to hold office.

Corbyn at least has the guts to face the people ( both young and old)
You mean the *poor mans Tony Blair* the same slick sales talk ? till it
becomes apparent that borrowing needs to be paid back!!!
He has the TIME after all he is not running the country .... or representing the will
of the people in extricating the UK out of the EU.

For most of those cheering on Corbyn at Glastonbury yesterday, he appears to be the new messiah for them. I am also guessing most of the soap dodger student types who voted for him only did so because social media told them to do so, which seems to be the way to mobilise them these days!
What has struck me though is the similarity between last years US election and the recent UK one, in that the losing side - the one all the SJW's and "progressives" support - seems to be whining like crazy that their side lost and are calling for all sorts of action to reverse the situation, democracy be damned, because, well, they are right of course!
Don't get me wrong, I am no Tory supporter either, infact, I support no single party and think the whole system needs a clean out if we are ever to get honesty and integrity into leadership. Unfortunately, the (mainly) 2 party system we have is led by the nose by big money interests and the establishment figures. Even JC, no matter how much they try and portray him as a wildcard lone ranger, has and will fall further into line if he does get into Downing Street.
Meantime though it's all about image and pandering to the right groups, and who better than those with little or no real life experience who seem to be easily driven by the lates social media / engineering topics, the selfie generation!
