Anyone starting to think that Labour puppet masters are being clever with Corbyn as leader of the opposition?
Have a radical left winger stand at the general election, taking up lots of votes from people looking for something different from the usual LibLabCon trick. Promise the Earth to everyone.
Then, as soon as he wins the GE, he stands down and hands over power to a bog std LibLabCon leader, following the usual LibLabCon policies we've all seen for at least 30 years. Just like Phoney handed power to Brown, without Brown being voted in.

Originally posted by fullyautomatix View PostWTF is wrong with this govt ? Time and time again we hear sound bites about cut in public sector and austerity and cut in welfare etc etc etc.
Still, the borrowing is climbing. Why are we borrowing more if every department is trimmed by 30% ? Where is all this extra cash going?
I just wish we could get Corbyn in power somehow, he would sort this mess out without any of the austerity crap.
HTH

But that surely can't be the case?

Originally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyTurning it around, there clearly is no austerity, there really aren't any cuts. The cuts are measured against supposed inflation, the deficit is measured in real cash. The reality is the UK government is spending too much.
What could Corbyn actually do differently?
However he would not bother. If he got into power he would just act like the current government.

Originally posted by AtW View PostA better question would be - why did they still get bonuses in years when they made a loss?

Originally posted by darmstadt View PostWell, you see they apparently make a loss in the UK but more profit in other countries where the tax laws are different which, to me, begs the questions, if they make a loss in the UK, why do they still do business in the UK then?
