    That's a vote for Corbers by the sound of it.

    They don't have my vote but I still don't think you should be allowed to spend a lifetime avoiding work.

    Would you please consider changing your avatar?

    Clucas is a very decent larker, but now when I see his pic I'm starting to see a thin-skinned, peevish, immature, tedious, simplistic, bullshit-recycling, done-nowt-but-knows-it-all-anyway tit with snowflakerish tendencies.

    Been a good thread this, not had chance to catch up since this morning so maybe this has already been said.

    This isn’t the end of the swing to the left – just the beginning.

    This govt is weak and would not last the night in a good year, nevermind in a Brexit year. That poison chalice could destroy the most able politicians and dash the most secure parties.

    Labour will benefit from being seen as the credible opposition rather than the joke it was perceived as at the start of this campaign. By the next election (within two years max by the way) Labour will have even more younger voters with the franchise as the movement builds – and without being macabre – more of the Tory vote will have passed on.

    So brace yourselves in Scotland, Wales and across England. We'll take more and more ground.

    Labour will form the next government.

    And you would know as an employer GG that £10 doesn't actually mean £10. Its nearer £16...

    I have to say also, big up to everyone, different views, different thoughts, but I think in the main this has been a good thread without much haranging....

    I agree>>>>>more young voters will be available next few years and more dusty old twats will be turned into ashes or plonked in the soil............the tide is turning and labour needs 2 keep corbyn and let him organise a real labour party that keir hardie would have been proud of

    Labour have gone from no hopers to some hopers.
    They lost. Again.
    Apart from Blair, it's many decades now since they won an election.
    They spunked the nation's wealth, leaving it as usual to the Cons to do the hard yards, restructuring the economy and subjecting us all to austerity.
    Not sure it augurs well for the medium and long term future, if the "I want it now" young are already greedy, self-centred and with an overbearing sense of entitlement.

    I hope they have lots of decent graduate-level jobs to go to. Over to Corbers and McDonnell with their entrepreneurial wealth-creating experience to create some....**** I forgot they lost.

    Sad to see the same deadwood getting elected in Hull. Despite Hull endorsing Brexit. the same deadwood Remoan ****s got re-elected. Schizophrenic voting choice.
    We are in the **** now with this lame duck hung parliament. You would hope Corbers would stop acting the **** and back Teresa May against the EU negotiators, but with his history of selfish, anti British voting as a constituency MP over many decades, he will no doubt continue in this vein.
    To the delight of Juncker & co.

    The average investment banker will spend 80 hours a week in his office. Piss-poor example.

    It's not about where you're from, it's about who you are. The key is not to focus on what people have got, but what they haven't got, only then can we move on from the greed and bitterness that blights a society such as ours.
    The Conservatives only serve to fuel such inequality and distaste for others. Capitalism is ****ed. I don't know what's coming but I'm up for the ride.

    I think most so called hard working people will work 80 hours on a building site but for some reason don't get the bonuses the bankers get........add 2that the fact bankers can still earn millions of pounds doing a very bad job and I`d say most people would swap theyre life for a bankers lifestyle <ale>

    Investment banking is just managing finance capital. It doesn't produce anything in real terms. Money's like ****, it piles up and it stinks but if you spread it around, things grow. Trickle-down economics has to be the dumbest thing voters have fell for since Thatcher and Reagan advocated for it.

    That's hypocritical isn't it? Focus on what people haven't got? Why not focus on both? And it does matter where you're from! Especially if you've bettered yourself in life? I won't go into figures but I'm doing ok by hard graft! You can't tell me all those work shy bastards on benefits are disabled? Bollocks!!!!

    75 hours of that are spent drinking and taking drugs.

    It's about openness and understanding, nothing material.

    Just shows how talented they are if they only work 5 hours a week and generate millions in profit.
    More power to their elbow I say.
