Mr Corbyn genuinely lives in a fantasy world, compounded by the extremely narrow life experience he has gained as a 'professional agitator' which is all he has really ever been. In his world, the downtrodden working class will rise up and throw off the yolk of oppression and take all the money and share it out, and everyone will be happy. In the real world, even...

Party members and activists (of any colour) are generally ignorant of the fact that out in the real world very few people are as fevent in their beliefs as is assumed.

It comes from living in the rarified atmosphere of living life solely as a 'political animal'.
Amazing stance to take. He is part of the (not so) few who run a corrupt system delaying Brexit. And he has clearly no interest in anything people-powered, proved by his obstruction of delivering the people's vote to leave.

Surely he could have found some applicable claims to attract votes ?
Other than the swivel-eyed lunatics in Momentum, I genuinely find it head-scratchingly astonishing that anybody would consider voting Labour with Corbyn at the helm.

The very best thing for Labour is for them to lose the GE in a landslide, so that Corbyn will fall on his sword and take his Mao loving sidekicks of McDonnell and Abbot with him - that way a more electable leadership hopefully for proper Labour supporters will surface.

At the moment I feel rather sorry for the sensible Labour voters who have supported the traditional left of centre parties of the past - Labour's lurch to just right of Trotsky must leave them feeling despair that they no longer have a sensible party.
For anyone interested there's an AB poll on the forthcoming election here.

In the real world, even Labour voters are savvy enough to know that his lunatic rhetoric has no place in the modern world, and Labour needs to bite the bullet, lose this election, send him off to his allotment, elect someone sensible, and start again.

Of course, Labour's track record in electing leaders who have even a vestige of the qualities needed to lead and win - a personality, a grasp of realism, decent teeth, a nice voice, and so on, is poor in the extreme, but they need to be looking now, and they probably are.

bang on AH, BA, it's no surprise that real Labour have not had a sniff since 1979.
Can we please distinguish between yoke and yolk.

JD, with all due respect we should not latch on to typos, I'm pretty sure that AH knows Yoke from Yolk.
I remember Prescott trying to throw off the yolk!
All very sensible and reasonable.

The trouble is there are very many (probably running into millions) of people in the UK who will vote for anything with "Labour" written on it. There was a woman on the telly tonight who was interviewed about her voting intentions. "Labour" she said. When asked why "Because I always have. My Mum & Dad did, and so did their Mum & Dad. So I always have and always will."

So it's not quite so straightforward as examining the philosophy and policies of the candidates.

I entirely concur with your view, and there are also huge numbers of people who abstain from voting on the basis that 'they're all the same ...'.

We have to hope that enough people actually do consider their options carefully and appreciate the importance of voting, and hope that an appropriate level of common sense from the electorate clears out the nonsense from Parliament, where the Right Honourable and Honourable ladies and gentlemen proved themselves time and again unwilling to sort things out for themselves, as is their responsibility and our right to expect.
