Why do people dislike Corbyn so much?

I asked my old man this and after that discussion I've come to the conclusion he doesn't actually know the reason :lol: He couldn't state one policy of his that he disagreed with but he absolutely despises the man.
 
14 posters want to vote for bloody UKIP?!?
 
Corbyn was seen as extremist left wing back in the day - frequently rebelling against his own party. From what I remember The Sun & others would quite openly refer to him as a loony - individually speaking by name. Supporter of strange policies to anyone sane etc. Anti-Establishment too, I suppose.

Worth remembering he only was put on to the Labour leader ballot paper so as to offer a Leftist alternative.
 
FFS, why are they using Karren Brady?
 
I'm actually legit looking forward to the Green one.
 
He doesn't wear a tie or sing the national anthem loudly enough.

Pretty much this, and the fact he's not David Miliband or something.

He's almost certainly the most genuine and cleanest of the main party leaders, whereas the others are merely a concoction of liars, bigots or self-serving hypocrites that answer to a small group of elites rather than the general population. Apparently that's what it takes to win an election in this country.
 
That broadcast isn't hard-hitting enough about life in Conservative Britain. It should be mum & kids at a table, eating dinner:

KID: "Mummy, why isn't Daddy home from the mines yet?"
MUM: "Because the Tories have KILLED HIM!!!!!"
KIDS: "WAAAAA!!!"
MUM: "Now shurrup and finish your dog."

Don't be ridiculous. The Mum would be too busy having to prove she'd been raped in order for her to be able to claim tax credits for a conversation like that.

Christ, that's too hauntingly sad to laugh about, mate. Is it any wonder they're so despised?

Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie fails in his attempts to deal with a Yes voter.

 
He's been attacked by Rooney.
 
Have some respect - that sheep is England's leading scorer.
 
I'm one of those mad lefties who thinks selling bombs to human rights abusing countries to use to blow men, women and children limb from limb isn't good. What a kook I am!
I too am a softy snowflake who knits his own supper.
