And afore anyone says Corbyn has no power to stop it, why blame him, Before this shitstorm Austerity was the most important issue in U.K. politics at least for anyone with a conscience. but Corbyn did set out costed policies that (slightly) mitigated it. This is bollocks not having a coherent stance on Brexit as we fall off a cliff and the six counties are about to go on fire.

It’s not personal though. Obviously.Comment

Seriously, I wish fucking England would just declare UDI from the rest of the U.K. and live in their bullshit insular world, whether Singapore with disaster capitalism or milquetoast Socialism in one country Ruritania. We’re eating stones, but at least the railways are publically owned!Comment

He seems a good man and I was willing to overlook his shitness on the Scottish Question, as very few in Labour aren’t dicks in that regard. But nah, Brexit has shown him to be a fanny. And living in Ireland it makes no fucking sense what he’s doing.Comment

And yet again I point out what everyone expected to happen would have been May winning that election by 100 and ramming through an even worse deal against an abstaining Labour led by Chukka Umunna.Comment

Not sure why Irish people living in Ireland are so angry with Corbyn. It can't be good for you.Comment
-
Well living in Ireland his strategy looks fucking tragic, he doesn’t seem to understand the EU at all. It’s perplexing he’s still wanting cake. And being Scottish he is shit on a Red White and Blue stick North of the Wall as well.Comment

He's following the policy voted for by members at Conference.Comment
-
Yep and the motions put through and voted on at conference are usually done with the connivance of the leadership. The motion at conference makes no sense cos it was a cake fudge designed to keep everyone quiet.Comment

I dunno that Corbyn supporters need to be quite so defensive of him. He’s not going to read this, and he’s no one here’s mum.Comment

Anyway, read Frankie Boyle’s review of the year in the Guardian. It’s great.Comment

I've posted one sentence pointing out that he's following a party policy. Don't try to police me.Comment

You don't need to live in Ireland to get that insight. Plenty of us in England have it too.Well living in Ireland his strategy looks fucking tragic, he doesn’t seem to understand the EU at all. It’s perplexing he’s still wanting cake.Comment

Ireland are screwed over by our nonsense. No wonder they aren't impressed.Comment

I might want Scottish Indy but I’m not SNP. Don’t think it’s just parochial tub thumping that has me thinking Sturgeon is the only party leader worth a damn on this over in Crazy Island.Comment

Of all the angry stuff posted today, I thought mine was innocuous. Ah well. No ones loss!Comment

I don't see the likeness, myself.
Today has been utterly ridiculous on the Corbyn / Brexit front. The Guardian piece is a bag o' shite, with a headline entirely unsupported by the content. And...ah sod it, it's just all been ludicrous. And I can't stand the fella.Comment

Here are the UK government predictions for various Brexit scenarios.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-42977967
Nothing specifically on the Customs Union, though most people think it's a fair bit worse than the Single Market. Yet that's what the leader of the Labour Party personally wants to go for. So that's what? About 4% knocked off the economy of Wales, Scotland, West Midlands, North West England and more off North East England? He seriously wants that?Comment

I mean, God knows what the fall back position does to the economy. And they'll need one if they're going to push for having a say over EU trade deals as a condition of joining.Comment
