with respect theres is not a huge majority who agree with the lying mesogynist they just choose his lies over an honest but very misunderstood politician
i rejoined labour to vote for corbin as a real honest person and paid for my son to join at the same time then about 25 year old
but said he would never ever get into power as he didnt play the politicians game off saying and promising what people want to hear rather than be honest

that is the paradox of democracy -winning elections is to a significant degree based on manipulating the electorate.

Corbyn wanted power to help people not for vested self interest. I suppose you could argue Corbyn was desperate to win so he could push his ideology. Overall though Corbyn wanted to help reduce the poverty an inequality, not make himself and his mates rich.

Sadly this government have stripped out any integrity on politics. The strategy has been taken from Steve Bannon -it is pure Trumpism. Add to that the Tory cabinet are selling themselves to US lobby groups. People may laugh at the suggestion but their strategy has the hallmarks of protofacism.

I cant see any Labour politician being able to beat them at the moment -Labour need some clever and devious strategists to game plan their way forward. Honest debating will get them nowhere.

Yeah, that’s the last thing a Labour leader would do, isn’t it. Hold on a minute..........

 

[festive]

Is that true?

Without question there are.

Just like drugs etc, you may not see them but there's so much slipping in every day like you wouldn't believe.

From the horses mouth the numbers seeking asylum and currently in the system.

Another approach is to look at the Home Office’s administrative statistics, which show there were 88,848 asylum cases ‘in progress’ at the end of June 2018. This takes into account all pending applications and cases in which the application has been refused but the applicant has not yet left the country or has secured leave to remain via another route.

A third indicator is the number of people receiving Section 95 support, which is a weekly stipend given to asylum seekers who do not have independent means.

At the end of December 2018, there were 44,258 asylum seekers receiving government support.

1000's Of British Expats To Be Deported From Spain are threatening legal action..

British expats living in Spain are now facing deportation after Spain introduces it's new Brexit based Spatsit points system.

Expats will have to qualify with a minimum of 80 points to stay in the country. The points can be gained - or lost by varied means:

Being able to speak Spanish at a required level +20pts
Being able integrate with locals +10pts
Taking part in "La Siesta" +5 pts
Flamenco dancing level 4 or above +20 pts.
Being able to cook Paella +15 pts.
Not complaining about the European parliament +20 pts.
Appreciation of Pablo Picasso +10 pts.
Drinking wine instead of beer with food +10 pts
Wearing shorts and socks with sandals while sporting pink burnt skin and a hankey or pork pie hat: - 20 pts
Moaning about the heat -10pts
Having a pension less than 25,000 Euro -20 pts.

A Spanish interior minister said those failing to meet the required standards may be able to earn extra points by taking on low skilled, low value unwanted employment such as Orange picking, becoming apprentice bullfighters, beach cleaners, or makers of Sangria or Zurra - provided they have the associated PHD or Spanish equivalent.

Former Hull Couple Wayne and Chantel who have been living in Benidorm for 20 years said: " its bloody racist init..!, we don't know a single word of Spanish, we just hang around wi ar mates thanos at "T" pub wi the rest of us brits. It's run by a yorkshire geezer called Ted, wot will we do if the bairns Brittany and Mercedes cant come over ere for their hols? This aint the Bwexit we voted for....!"

Any ex pat living in Spain that actually voted Brexit should not be allowed back into the Uk

Blimey we have enough idiots here as it is

 

[IT Minion]

Indeed so we end up with slum towns increased crime etc...it's still happening like that, there have been and are 1000's slipping through.

Is that 1,000s of asylum seekers a day, week, year or decade?

I agree, the frankly insanely small pittance that we give asylum seekers does probably contribute to slums and crimes. After all they aren't allowed to earn money legally.

Also, do you mean asylum seeker or just economic migrants who haven't done the paperwork?

Hmm, it does beg the question though, if we are treating asylum seekers so appallingly, why on earth are they traversing the entire European continent and living in camps on the French coast, queueing to risk their lives crossing the channel in inflatables, just to get to this country. Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't make sense.

 

[danechip]

I have wondered why. Do they not understand this is a 3h1t hole here? Much better than they are used to but definitely not 'The Dream'. That is all...
