Absolutely. David Miliband couldn't even win the leadership election and he'd have made sure the Tories didn't have a majority and we'd still be in the EU. Corbyn has won it twice so logic dictates that the Tories will cease to exist as a party and not only would Brexit be stopped but the rest of the EU will apply to join the United Kingdom.

Rest of the EU - apart from Scotland.
This is like the twitter polls again.
Shoud be a poll on twitter about the use of Trident. Most people on twitter couldn't even spell armageddon. Still, it's not the end of the world.
If by it you mean the momentum vote then yup he has... Pretty sure it will cripple the party in the general though.
Anyway it needs to happen to finally force the party to split / become relevant
... A pro Brexit momentum party and a pro remain centrist one would see the best solution and probably inevitable when he secures the worst return on mps since ww2 (no doubt the corbynistas will blame Blair somehow)
So are baseless conspiracy theories on blame good or bad?
both are way better then JC
I strongly believe that the aftermath of Brexit will see a radical change in how people think.
He appeased antisemitism and he was very naive regarding the trident. He's also too much in the unions pockets for my liking. Call it egoism but Im sick to the teeth with JC's best mates calling a tube strike every couple of weeks. Some people actually have to work for a living.
However that's not important. The important thing is that JC is un electable material which means that one of the most powerful nations in the world is currently working on a virtual dictatorship. I've worked against that in Malta when our own version of JC was head of the MLP, Id work against that in the UK.
This is what's worrying, he invokes highly polarised views. He unquestionably has a lot of supporters who sincerely think he'd be a great Prime Minister. But there are people who hold the same strength of feeling against him (and not just Tories and Ukippers). The election will be a test of which group is greater in number.

A cap on energy bills.
It is interesting that when EM put this forward the Tories attacked it as undeliverable and now it is supposedly going to be in their manifesto.

Can it just be noted that these two sentences were posted in this grouping?
F-f-f-ree markets. Erm...communism. Chairman May!
They'll promise anything, as long as they get to retain power.
You haven't mentioned what policies you disagree with. What about Free school meals, more bank holidays, a anti austerity plan for the economy, upping the minimum wage, supporting the NHS. Do you disagree with any of these policies ?
Also for the unions of course Corbyn is close to the unions, it's the LABOUR party. Mate I don't want to have a dig at you but you don't sound particularly Left wing at all.
The Tube strikes is a despicable act, lead by a bunch of spoiled kids who hold a monopoly. Rest assured that those suffering the most out of it are not the rich people who can afford a day or two working from home but the vulnerable workers who rely on the tube to go to work
Regarding the NHS I've got family and friends working in it and while I am 100% in favour of saving it I also acknowledge that it need some serious restructuring. The NHS should focus on health. Hospitals services in the UK are like 5 star hotels with hundreds of people employed to make sure the customer get a great service. I've got family and friends working with the darn thing and some of the things they some of the abuse they face on a daily basis border to the surreal. They lost count of how many people do not go attend appointments. In Malta, no one would dare doing such a thing because he will end up at the very end of the appointment list.

I don't understand the hatred people have for Corbyn. I'm not voting Labour but that's only because it's a Tory v Lib Dem battle over here.
Is it simply because he's not New Labour?

What should worry you is how a media ran by various foreign nationals who virtually own the tory party have been able to accomplish such visceral hatred for a man who is in reality no extremist, and simply wants everyone to have the best chance possible. I am not blind to his many faults, but there is nothing hate-worthy in the man.
This is the elephant in the room that you are all studiously ignoring. Unless labour elect a leader in the blair mould, that is, friends with murdoch and will never take on the multinational dominance of our governance, they will get the exact same treatment. Khan and Umunna included. Foreign nationals ensuring we get no choice in political direction should scare the living shit out of every single person in the country.

Would you rather those working people were decimated like teachers and nurses have been?
Striking for better work conditions, job security and rights
Something you have been totally 'For' previously, these people have to work too, its quite a selfish attitude you have there.
Fixed that for you
The trolleys in the corridors are pretty swish though.
I believe they even have Corridor nurses now, like you see in war zones in 3rd world countries. Envy of the world.
Making Britain better for everyone
they have great working conditions and certainly don't need to strike every 2 months. Whom do you think they are hurting by doing so? It certainly not hurting those rich enough not to need to work
Id rather see them get on with our work. Their salary/conditions is quite competitive. Surely there's no need for a strike every couple of months
That's why I've said restructuring. The NHS is busy accommodating its hordes of managers + patients who can't be bothered attending appointments because its too cold outside. Meanwhile cuts are being made that is hurting those who actually need it.
He has risen. He hasn't given his opinion on Foo Fighters though, so I don't think he'll be kicked out of the party.
They don't?
You don't get to determine that their work conditions are great
You sound so Tory sometimes
They do and the ones suffering because of it are the workers
You don't half talk a lot of bollocks.
Or maybe i am a person whose experienced enough to know how the world work. If technology improves enough to have them all fired then rest assured that most people in the uk would want that technology to be introduced in the uk. They certaintly wont find any sympathy from the public. Thats what happens when you abuse from your position
So who do you think suffers from those strikes?
Thats the most stereotypical right wing way you could have responded to that...
So when the next Tory regime takes away all your workers rights and then tell you your conditions are great, you'll be happy with that?
The people and families of them who are going without pay.
Exactly, the horde of people working on zero hours who can't make it to work
Its the truth. I've lived in London in the past 3 years and I've yet to hear one person saying something nice about tube drivers. Maybe labour needs to listen more what the general public are saying and less to unions whose paying the bills. That's the first step of actually winning a general elections
They'd get more sympathy then any banker that gets fired, from me anyhow
You'll find that there's a massive gap between the salary/conditions of a tube drivers and slavery
