You can do enormous good with it, or you can be a selfish €unt.

money is the root of all good.

No such thing as being a selfish £unt with your own money.

one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. You mention Hezbollah and Hamas in the same light many would mention Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Iran hails Jeremy Corbyn for 'shaking the British ruling class' - Telegraph

Question for Korbyn - would he shake hand of Salman Rushdie? Would he send him back to Iran?

[NorthWestPerm2Contr]

He is anti war by supporting enemies of Britain whether they be Russia, IRA, Hezbollah, Hamas. If you think for a minute that pacifism is the answer to everything then maybe you should argue what Britain should have done in the face odf Hitler. His way of "de escalating" war is to submit to the demands of the terrorists and oppressors
here you go. His associations hardly a representation of balanced debate Why is no one asking about Jeremy Corbyn
I cannot see for the life of me where he has ever challenged the behaviour, policies and actions of any of the dodgy terrorist groups he has engaged with.

one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. You mention Hezbollah and Hamas in the same light many would mention Israel and Saudi Arabia. Your Bush/Blair us vs them mentality doesn't achieve anything. At the moment there is only 1 or 2 "terrorist" groups for which it is not possible to talk to - IS/Al-Qaeda. Having said that it could be easily said that no matter how much we "talk" to Israel they never seem to change their policies.... Even the extremist muppet Blair managed to do a deal with the IRA for Christ's sake!

Your problem is you fail to see the other side, for however much I disagree with you, I still try and understand why you would see Israel are somehow the "good guys" in the region.

You have the typical war mongering attitude whereas Corbyn has the a more open-minded, long-term and peace making view of the world. I'd take his over your pathetic nonsense any day of the week.

You help your family??? Mr Corbyn won't like that.

You are perpetuating a privileged elite.

You should be helping other people's families.

It's only fair.

Citation?

You don't know how big his family is.

Remember not everyone has a nuclear family.....

I redistribute the not inconsiderable wealth of contractors.

Osborne, is that you?

[original PM]

My conscience is clear. I have nothing to prove to you.

What do YOU do for the good of humanity?

I do not

Oppress the innocent
Attack the weak
Abuse the elderly

what I happen to do is have worked hard and managed to accumulate enough money to be fairly well off....

but it would appear that the first 3 are acceptable to the leftie and it is just the last one which makes me an object of hatred

go figure

[PurpleGorilla]

What do you do with your money that is so virtuous? I presume that your leftie values involve keeping the poor in their place and attacking those that are richer than you and then claiming in true cowardice fashion that it is "only fair"

Or you can save it so that in case of leaner times you do not have to rely on handouts, or you can ensure your kids get a bit of a headstart.

Charity begins at home and I could not give money away on the assumption that someone will give me money if the tulip hits the fan.

[PurpleGorilla]

The problem with being wealthy and jealous of other people's wealth is that it works both ways. To someone on benefits the pay of a contractor is a fortune. even a benefits to a third world farmer or refugee are beyond the dreams of millions of people.

So unless you are prepared to draw a line that stands up to argument you stand to make yourself into a hypocrite.

Socialism and contractors do not mix easily.

[DodgyAgent]

Yet you still have more than most. Not good enough.
