Hasn't been for a while now. His anti foreign meddling position is one of the few things I like about him. If he gets on board with the eurosceptic movement, so much the better.

The daily mail and the sun have a good handle on everything he saysOriginally posted by EternalOptimist View PostI was reading about the new discoveries at Stonehenge and it occurred to me that Corbyn may have plans to blow this up if he gets in. Anyone have the inside info on Jezzers Stonhenge policy ?

He is likely to be the most popular Labour leader and Prime minister of Britain ever ! I cant wait for 2020 elections to come by, in fact I hope he masterminds a coup and we have elections next year!

Cameron signals he would drop Syria airstrikes vote if Corbyn is Labour leader | Politics | The GuardianDavid Cameron has indicated he will abandon plans to extend military airstrikes against Islamic State (Isis) targets from Iraq to Syria if Jeremy Corbyn is elected leader of the Labour party.
In a sign of how the leftwinger could have an impact on Britain’s foreign policy, even as opposition leader, the prime minister said that he would only hold a parliamentary vote on the strikes if there is “genuine consensus”.
Speaking in Madrid, the prime minister said: “I would only proceed going further on this issue if there is genuine consensus in the United Kingdom about it before going back to parliament.” The frontrunner for the Labour leadership is opposed to the current airstrikes against Isis targets in Iraq and to extending them to Syria.

The government doesn't care, bodyshops give them nice cushy directorships, and there is an endless supply of indentured slaves to come over hereOriginally posted by BoredBloke View PostIts hardly a tax loophole to be able to offset legitimate expenses against tax. When I worked in London my monthly expenses easily ran to £2k a month. Hotels and travel are not cheap. Without being able to offset that against tax, there is no point looking for work that isn't an easy day commute. It hardly bodes well for a flexible workforce.

That'll get the country back on it's feet and support the powerhouse small businesses that keep the UK afloat.

They are worse because Labour did a half arsed job. The Tories are coming for us with a pincer movemment and a smirk on their faces.Originally posted by fullyautomatix View PostWhy ?

A contractor helping make sure this lot carry on regardless is like a Turkey voting for Christmas

There isn't a party that stands up for our interests. Given the summer budget the Tories have been way worse than anything Blair and brown tried to put together.
