Labour’s flagship pledge to scrap tuition fees is little more than an undeliverable “ploy” to get support at the ballot box, according to students taking part in a HuffPost UK/Edelman focus group.

And it worked, so much so the tories are "looking at it" apparently

Who'd have thought Corbyn's cronies would just make up numbers to get votes eh?

More to the point in the video I just linked to above, is from a speech today, where clearly a woman appears in some 'distress', but never mind, Jeremy wants to finish his speech first.
Even Labour's shadow education secretary disputes his numbers but we all know that a good number of Corbyn supporters believe what they want to believe.
It doesn't look good does it. Either Corbyn doesn't know what he's talking about or he's lying. How could anyone vote for this guy?

Can you imagine the fuss and insults Corbyn and the media would have levelled at PM if it had happened to her? Double standards of the highest order as usual...
Corbyn may look like a cuddly old codger but he's far from it. His beliefs and tactics have always been the same.
As this us a discussion about post election I fail to see the point of posting that link which talks about people's possible voting intentions in Junes election.

There's that to it.
So anyway we all know it's Labour's intention to write to £100bn worth of student debts, solve the housing crisis, renationalise rail (and other public services), pay the public sector more, increase benefits, save the NHS blah blah blah but where's the money coming from?
As usual we have a whole load of pie in the sky from the party which is ever so good at borrowing and spending/wasting money but rubbish at creating the wealth which pays for it. As for their pious, celebrity supporters - you know, the ones who talk the talk but live in their mansions/gated communities/foreign properties etc. whilst doing whatever they can to avoid tax - watch them leave in droves if Corbyn ever got elected and tried to carry through the tax changes which would be required to even start the process he's suggesting.
I bit of a dumb remark, be sheesh, talk about over reaction by everyone, you would think she had killed someone.
The reputational damage is huge, it makes the Conservative Party appear out of touch with most of the country. Regardless of the moral aspects, this would have compelled them to act.
The modern day metaphor to use would be "elephant in the room." But her electoral agent and partner Roger Kendrick is unlikely to provide her with such sensible advice. Earlier this year, the MP was forced to distance herself from comments made by Kendrick, who told a hustings event that “the crisis in education was due entirely to non-British-born immigrants and their high birth rates”.
