Guys - for the record it is "Eton" and "Osborne" (who did not go to Eton.....) I have never admired the vitriol directed against public school children. It reeks of jealousy and Caledonian chippiness. If their parents choose to spend their money on their children's education (in addition to subsidising the state system through their taxes), as opposed to spending it on drugs, ***s and wide screen TVs, that it to be respected IMO.
True in Corbyn's case, but not in Boris'. He left Balliol with a very good Classics degree I see recall
The best decision my dad made was refusing to let me go to Alleyns (mums wish) and sending me to forest hill. From experience, I'd hate to be anything like the dulwich college boys I've come across. But back on topic - I wonder how many of the red division were privately educated?
As the Labour Party implodes under Corbyn's leadership, it will be interesting to see whether he does the decent thing, or whether he clings on like any other politician would do. The Parliamentary Party can't get rid of him, so the decision will be up to him. I expect the pressure to start building up after the London Mayoral elections, when the Corbyn factor will kick in. Even though he said he doesn't want the job, I predict that my old Union boss Alan Johnson will lead the party in to the next election.
Corbyn will be gone by Christmas. I've said it from the start. Anyone who puts Diane Abbott on the front bench is not fit for purpose. UKIP are the only credible opposition to the Tories, and the only party with the balls to stand up to this idiotic immigration plan.
I like Corbyn as a man. I don't agree with his politics but he is different. I think he has got too many enemies inside and outside of the Labour Party to survive. UKIP are NOT the answer. We know their Policy on Immigration and the EU. But what are their policies on the Health Service, Education etc.I have no idea. They are a knee jerk reaction to the Tories stance on immigration.
