Corbyn's Hat

[Khandro]

What happened to his 'Lenin' hat, he doesn't seem to be sporting it any more, was it a bit too unsubtle ?

[Zacs-Master]

Da.

[mikey4444]

Khandro...would someone really wear a hat, when they are indoors, giving a keynote speech ?

[hereIam]

I don't recall ever seeing him in a hat ...

[Bazile]

And very fetching as well

It doesn't matter hereIam....Khandro has planted the seed, on the same day as Corbyn gave the finest speech of his career....its K's way of not discussing important issues.

The Daily Mail have reported that ambient composer and former Roxy Music member Brian Eno has forked out £250 for Jeremy Corbyn’s “trademark black Leninist cap” at a recent auction for the charity Stop The War

He doesn't need it anymore. It has served its purpose, which was to wind up the Blairites and Daily Mail readers.
However, he cannot keep using the same prop as its shock effect wears off with time.
He now winds up the Blairites and Daily Mail readers by pretending he is electable.
And judging by all the posts this week, he his hitting his targets.

Shows what I know about fashion, always knew those as Fiddler Caps or Breton Caps.

[mikey4444]

Mamy...yes, I thought they were called Breton Caps as well :::::

Can't see any Russians there !

[anneasquith]

Its summer , well not here though :-(

[douglas9401]

Look harder Mikey. It has many names.

[mikey4444]

Yes, but what does that prove Dougie ?

Does anybody really expect to see Corbyn dressed in a Boater and an Eton Tie !

[douglas9401]

All it has to prove is that it's known as a Lenin cap, Mikey.

Job done I think, now onwards to Downing Street. :P

[mikey4444]

But even if it is Dougie....what difference does it make ?

Khandro has posted this today, to divert attention away from a very important day for the Labour Party.

[douglas9401]

I'll take that as a yer but, no but yer.
Sending you a dead horse that needs flogging.

[naomi24]

Mikey, The finest speech of his career? You mean he's managed to hoodwink you yet again? Lenin, with whom Jeremy shares a taste in hats, was a good speaker too. ;o)

[mikey4444]

Dougie....not at all ! All you have demonstrated is that this cap can be known by a wide range of names....but its still a diversion tactic by Khandro, and a pretty naked one at that.

But its given us some amusement this dull and rainy afternoon, and for that we must be grateful !

[naomi24]

ps. How can posting something about Jeremy Corbyn divert attention away from the Labour Party? I mean, it's not as if Khandro posted something about Trump or Farage, say. Now that would divert attention away from the Labour Party. ;o)

[scooping]

Really can't believe that some of you are so gullible that you think a Corbyn government would survive a year.

[mikey4444]

Scooping...let the people decide.
