You have to hand it to him: That is one *spectacular* hair cut.The party needs someone far less extreme than Corbyn.

It’s incredible to see the opening of parliament and Corbyn still sat in the leader of the opposition seat.
incredible.
incredible.
Lots of comments here and in the real world about how out of touch Labour are with the concerns of their traditional support base.
I am keen to know apart from Brexit which of these concerns are going to be dealt with better by the Conservative party.

Don’t take this the wrong way please, I don’t think you know what the working classes think nor want.
They don’t want socialism, they have a huge degree of patriotism, support the royal family etc. they want Britain to be independent of the EU, as you’ve mentioned.
They want investment in their areas and infrastructure to work but aren’t jealous of the rich, as Labour think they are, they want the opportunity to become rich themselves.
They want immigration to be curbed and for their communities to continue as they have done socially, in years gone by.
They want the UK to be strong on defence and law and order.
They see Labour as a threat to all of the above and middle class wannabe socialists don’t get it and they have no respect for them.
The metropolitan left are completely different to the northern heartland left.

A loss of this magnitude would see anyone but Corbyn gone immediately, all this nonsense about meetings, discussions, NEC and the same old waffling rubbish is typical Labour.It’s incredible to see the opening of parliament and Corbyn still sat in the leader of the opposition seat.

Fancy sitting opposite Johnson now at PMQ’s,
what on earth is the point of Corbyn now?

I should have added they don’t give a fuck about identity politics too.

Thanks for that comprehensive outline.Essentially then they want all, and believe in, the same stuff as southern Tories.
