Quite. Just have look at their front bench. Those people bemoaning the chaos we're seeing right now ought to be very careful what they wish for. If Corbyn's cronies were to be elected there'd be even more chaos and Sterling would plummet even further. Can anyone seriously imagine Corbyn, Abbott and McDonnell running UK PLC? Their 'policy' on the EU is a joke which is why we rarely hear much about it from Corbyn. They bang on about City jobs being lost to the EU but their own plans for regulation, taxaton etc. would do far more damage to the sector they're trying to claim they care about when it suits them.

Re: Government & Post Election Discussion

I notice that Labour's 'zero tolerance' of racism, sexism, bigotry etc. hasn't led Corbyn to take seriously what some of his colleagues have been saying and doing when they're not busily demanding resignations from the other side of the house:

Does he even comment on this abuse or the fake Tory logo sketch of a matchstick man hanging in tree? And they like to call the other side 'nasty'...

Would that be their offshore subsidised output or the holier than thou alternative they produce for consumption here?

Like many politicians they are out of touch with the real reality's of life.

The whole cabinet is out of touch and out of competence. Time for them to do the decent thing. Corbyn's lot can't do any worse surely!

Given the official figures, he clearly doesn't believe that but yes it was a stupid, clumsy thing for anyone to say let alone someone at his level in government. Must try harder Phil...

Too true. They can and have before.

Despite all their predictions of doom and gloom the UK is still growing. Just take a look at Corbyn's cabinet in waiting FGS! They're a bad joke.

Both as bad as each other if you take your blinkers off for once.

What blinkers? I think that's something you should look at yourself, Den! Corbyn and McDonnell are dangerous Marxists, something you and some others are conveniently overlooking. If they got in, we'd all know about it rather sooner than you think!

Don't forget that none of the real talent within the Parliamentary Labour Party trust him and won't even serve in his Cabinet. That should tell you all you need to know, but still you think he is a credible alternative.

The mind boggles how you cannot see these men for what they are.

Spot on Den, this country's been dealt a pile of jokers in both parties but it's no laughing matter! Who can forget the omnishambles budget? Or the foreign secretary who didn't read his emails and gave an excuse to Iran to increase a British citizen's sentence? Or the indecision around the next London airport? Others have covered Labour's failings with zeal so I won't duplicate their extensive efforts.
