The Guardian, Britain’s mouthpiece for the Left, are absolutely overjoyed about Jeremy Corbyn becoming leader of the Labour Party on the first ballot:
Corbyn did more than contribute to the debate. He won it in staggering style. Yesterday the man brought in to make up the numbers was named as Labour’s 19th full-time leader having won almost 60% of the vote. Just over 21 years after it had installed Tony Blair to take on the Tories from the centre ground, paving the way for three successive general election wins, Labour had vacated that territory and elected arguably its most left-wing leader ever and handed him an extraordinary mandate.
Make no mistake, Corbyn is the Far Left of the Far Left. The next election in the UK will see the middle of the road Tories vs. the furthest left policy agenda Labour has ever offered up to the electorate. Corbyn’s supporters are convinced that this is what is needed to restore them to power. Others are not so sure.
He is described as a first year University activist that is 66 years old. The British left deserve him in spades. Has a thin skin and is short tempered with a disadvantage of not being too bright. Should be good for a lot of laughs actually. Won’t some one invent diet popcorn?
when you read his synopsis the guy is a super lefty and you wonder why he didn’t move to Russia or Cuba to be with his own kind.
Its not coincidence that this article and the previous one are juxtaposed, just sayin’
Reading his policies and plans, I felt as if I had picked up Mulcair’s playbook. These left-wing nutbars have no idea of the real world.
He favors the elimination of UK’s nuclear weapons, and is a member of the Palestine Solidarity Committee. Get the idea?
Sounds a lot like Mulcair and like Mulcair his mouth looks a lot like my … – well it’s all hairy.
“Britain’s Leftists Rejoice over Jeremy’s Corbin’s Victory”
Yes, they richly deserve him.
What better way to advance the UK in the world than to go back to the Seventies?
That’ll work.
Was Hitler busy?
[Sigh!]
The Leftists/Socialists/Progressives never learn. Even though their agenda always fails, they continue to believe that they will succeed because their Elites are just so very much smarter than the folk who failed at the last go-round.
We can only pray that Europe simultaneously implodes and explodes under the weight of the failed socialist system and the tens of millions of muslims they have let in. My hope is that it happens to show what we are in for if we continue the madness.
The Conservatives, UKIP, and Liberal Democrats and even Greens should be happy about his win. He is a left wing nutbar who will just ensure Labour gets crushed next time around. For the Tories he has pretty much sealed the deal for them in 2020 unless the party after sinking badly in the polls kicks him out as leader. For the Liberal Democrats and Greens, they should be able to pick up some of the more moderate left leaning types, while for UKIP his stance on immigration will chase away many working class native Brits who want Britain to have less not more immigration.
I noticed some lefties in Canada were cheering the idea of him and Sanders becoming leaders of their respective countries. My response is not a chance, both countries are more conservative than Canada and so if both are too left wing for Canada, they definitely are for Britain and the US.
Everyone who hates Britons and Britain will vote for this globalist shill – he’d sell out the nation’s sovereignty and economic stability in a heart beat, just to satisfy his commie vampire soul-sucking lust.
I read an article that most of the Labour MPs want him gone as leader. Interesting.
At 3pm PT (6pm ET), if you’re interested in hearing Londoners talk about Corbyn, you can tune into BBC London Radio here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/bbc_london
Thanks for the link, Robert.
I’ve already “tuned in”.
It appears that his union supporters are unwilling to wait for the next election. They are calling for coordinated strikes and mass demos to bring Cameron down ASAP.
Looks like the UK is in need of another Margaret Thatcher!
“The Leftists/Socialists/Progressives never learn.” That is because their ideology is based on hate.
“Looks like the UK is in need of another Margaret Thatcher!”
Mention of Thatcher is quite apropos! I noted earlier here that Labour seems to want to take the UK back to the Seventies.
The Corbynites want to go back to the mess that was pre-Thatcher Britain until 1979 – the year she was elected PM.
the UK is screwed. they might as well vote labour and get it over with.
Bingo….Imploding and Exploding due to ISLAMIC Infiltration by the 10’s of thousands is exactly what is going on and is exactly what will tear Europe Apart…Including the UK with Mr Corbyn (who likely counts the Muslim Brotherhood as a key ally).
Canadians would do well to keep their eyes and ears wide open…
