What does newly elected Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn think?
Guardianr ^ | Saturday 12 September | Nadia Khomami

Posted on 09/12/2015 11:04:42 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

Corbyn was opposed to the Iraq war and has suggested that Tony Blair should stand trial as a war criminal over it.

Corbyn says that immigration is not a drain on the economy and has campaigned on behalf of asylum seekers, most recently over the need to rescue Mediterranean refugees.

Corbyn has proposed a National Education Service, which he says would be “every bit as vital and as free at the point of use as our NHS”. The service would begin with universal childcare.

Corbyn has said he will also look at abolishing the charitable status of private schools.

Corbyn is opposed to austerity and plans to bring down the deficit by taxing the wealthy and ending corporate tax reliefs.

Corbyn is in favour of unilateral nuclear disarmament and has called for a “radically different international policy” based on “political and not military solutions”.

He would block any attempt by David Cameron to launch airstrikes in Syria, saying bombing the country will “kill many people” and may not defeat Isis. .

Corbyn plans to renationalise the energy companies.

Corbyn also plans to renationalise the railways, which he says will allow the public to “get the benefit” of the current investment in infrastructure.

His website states that the “principle of universal healthcare which is free at the point of use is something that we all deserve and should be absolutely protected.”

He will grow rather than cut mental health budgets and ensure mental health education is taught in schools.

Corbyn has pledged to do more to address discrimination in the workplace, at home and on the streets.

He intends his cabinet to be made up of 50% women and wants to “work towards” 50% of all Labour MPs being women.

I mentioned this nutter in another thread.

Labour Party not even Socialist now, as of today a full-on Marxist Party.

So the hits just keep on coming. Europe’s being invaded by Islam and African savages from Sub-Sahara Africa and now the UK’s opposition party is a Marxist Party, led by Jeremy “Trotsky” Corbyn.

I mean, what have sane people even got to be worried about? There’s nothing to be worried about, all is good. *sarcasm*

Hey more like think of Leon Trotsky as PM.

I swear half my Continent has gone totally insane.

Watch for Corbyn to demand that UK take in all 20 million Islamic invaders waiting to get into Europe. Heck, Devon, Somerset, Buckinghamshire and Hampshire better prepare for that “Cultural Enrichment” that Islam brings to places.

Corbyn will never be PM, but the Marxists are on the march, Merkel, Juncker, UN, NGOs, Human Rights groups and of course Obama, so Cameron - a VERY weak man btw - will be forced and shamed to give in.

Gosh, I couldn’t see Margaret Thatcher our last proper Prime Minister taking this crap.

So, the Marxist/Communist brotherhood is on the march in Corbyn and Obama, at the same time Islam is on the march. The advance is stunning.

In addition to all these similarities between the two, it is Obama who is more openly amorous of all things Islam.

Thx for the ping. Rita

Point well taken.

I’m scared. It’s a three alarm fire at the top of the Catholic Church. Things are going to get very bumpy, for me anyway.

“Europe’s being invaded by Islam and African savages from Sub-Sahara Africa and now the UK’s opposition party is a Marxist Party, led by Jeremy “Trotsky” Corbyn.”

Corbyn says that

immigration is not a drain on the economy

and has campaigned on behalf of asylum seekers, most recently over the need to rescue Mediterranean refugees.

Even before this manufactured crisis, a crazy Labour MP David Lammy who was running for Mayor of London, was demanding that London allow 300,000 ILLEGAL immigrants be allowed to get residency.

That was on the front page of the London Evening Standard.

Nutty Lammy not running now, but it doesn’t matter because the newly renamed Marxist Party has chosen a Muslim called Sadiq Khan to crap on London as their official Mayoral candidate.

I mean seriously, the filthy Muslim rabble, not to mention the African savages.

Can you imagine trying to “integrate” them educationally, trying to teach them about our European culture, from Socrates and Plato to Roman and Greek architecture to Wordsworth, Shelley and Byron to Goethe and Schiller to Wagner, Mozart, Brahms, Sibelius, Puccini, Donizetti to Michelangelo, Botticelli, Rembrandt, Degas....you get the idea.

I mean TOTALLY impossible, ZERO success, especially amongst the African savages, who not only have ZERO understanding of any beauty or any civilised culture, but all studies have shown their IQs are 20% lower than even our classified Airhead IQ level.

What do you expect from your nation? A nation that has a public holiday, celebrating a Communist race-rebel rouser....ie, Martin Luther King Day. WTF?!

You know, I fear in Europe people won’t wake up until a mega act of cultural barbarism happens. The Islamic hordes want to destroy any culture of they who they mean to replace with Islam, witness the amazing cultural monuments they’re blowing up in Syria.

So brainwashed half of Europe will only say OMG NO! When the Brandenburg Gate, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, The Arch de Triumphe and Nelson’s Column all get blown up for STARTERS.

Of course by then, it’ll already be too late won’t it?

It will be interesting to watch what happens to London’s RED HOT real estate market with this gent heading Labour. If it keeps going, then the smart money is guessing that this is a weak Labour Party trying to rebuild itself after the Scottish National Party has deserted it. That being the case, little effect on Britain for years as it makes the not-so-Conservatives likely to remain in control for years.

If that market instead cools off, one wonders where the Russian & Chinese Billionaires will park their ‘safe’ money instead. This, added to the coming vote on remaining part of the EU AND the crowds of Chunnel Train hoppers gives lots of worry to the Brits, I’m sure.

Interesting times indeed!
