    That MP with a tiny nudge from other parents would make your life absolute hell I know teachers who sent their kids to the "wrong" school by accident and they were disruptive enough....
    Your point is?

        Louise Mensch takes Twitter swipe at Corbyn campaign

        He doesn't need to campaign anymore, the Tories and tory lites are doing it for him...

            He had no choice, otherwise he'd be double faced piece of tulip like many MPs are. He will certainly get my vote next time, I'll even donate money to local Labour MP with heartfelt apologies for voting Tory scum twice.

              Nationalising trains, utilities, free university all looks good in speeches and in principal. But then you have to raise tax somewhere else to pay for all this. Who pays ? Increasing corporation taxes ? Income taxes ? A plumber, bricke could say I didn't go to Uni, don't use trains why should I be subsidising them ?
              I don't make much use of the NHS and I don't have children getting free education, but the argument I shouldn't be contributing to such things is a poor one.

              And isn't the whole point of privatised trains - as with telecoms - that operators running them as a business do so to make a profit? Therefore, why would nationalising them lead to increased taxation to pay for them?

                You can tell the starry eyed youngsters. Yes, nationalise everything, no more profits comrade. It all works so well. No incentives, strike for another payrise every week. Why not, the socialist soviet Korbyn will look after us. Think tube drivers in every aspect of your lives. No electricity, the power workers are on strike, no rubbish collection, they are on strike. Bodies in the streets, the grave diggers are on strike.

                  In it's last two years of operation East Coast Trains ( renationalised after National Express walked away because they couldn't make money out if it) was one of only two rail franchises to return more to the treasury than it received in subsidy. In march the government handed it over to Virgin. Lets see how much it costs in the next couple of years.

                    But at least train travel and electricity would be cheap as chips. Who cares about some disruption every now and then. What we need in this country is the kind of disruption that Corbyn will bring about, he will teach the private rail companies a right proper lesson. I am really looking forward to him winning 2020 elections.
                    Vote Corbyn ! Save this country !

                      Enjoy getting up in the dark (there's no electricity), travelling on a train which isn't running to arrive at a client that isn't hiring.

                      I hope you like soup and stale bread. Plenty of time for queuing comrade.
