But what if your wealth comes from the privatisation of state services? Or what if your wealth is all inherited? Or what if your wealth comes from corporations that pay less tax than the poorest bloke who pays 20% VAT on every loaf of bread?

You can do the 'It's all mine' game, but all money ultimately comes from the same money pot. In the past it spread more easily and society ran better. Today we have let the rich hide it and things are falling apart and going back to the Victorian days.

You have an obvious choice. You can have mass inequality and workcamps or you can have greater equality and decent working conditions. You seem to be alligning yourself with one extreme, Brock. The alternative isn't communism, it is moderate capitalism and it is the system that existed when you were a kid.

What kind of turd of a human being @mentions someone to crow after another horrible incident like we have just suffered? Can we not at least keep this one thread on topic?

Win or lose Jeremy Corbyn has changed the narrative. He has proven that socialism and anti war is popular. Even if Labour loses they should see this as the start of something bigger. Corbyn has woken up a lot of people in 2 years despite the sabotage and even in losing (not over yet though, he is marching on) he will have attracted more voters than Labour has had in years. It will only get bigger as the Tories will screw up Brexit and collapse the NHS and screw everyone. It will lead to revolution. This is the revolution I have been wanting all along. Well done people of Britain. No matter what happens, well done. Either the revolution is now or a few years later, but it was nowhere a few years ago. All down to Jeremy Corbyn and a 'mistake' by the Labour Party in letting him anywhere near powerful. It's beautiful. Everyone wants Jeremy Corbyn to win. Everybody. Well, except for the hedge funders, bankers, landowners, idiots, media barons, tax evaders etc.Bwahahahaha!

Power not powerful, but who cares. Corbyn, Corbyn, Corbyn, Corbyn! In the words of yhe immortal Iggy Pop: "Can you feel it? CAN YOU FEEL IT?"

I am glad I don't have to choose between May and Corbyn they're both horribly suited for the job.....Labour sucks and the Tories are happy just to suck less at the moment.

That is true about the Tories, May calls a snap election and does not turn up for the debates. Their manifesto has no details, when she opens her mouth she had to back track on the dementia tax. So they are trying to say the least amount possible and hope their lead is enough to win.

Corbyn has called for may to resign because of the terrorist attacks and the lack of funding given to secure the country.

Incredible that May would not show up for the debates however Corbyn is a jackass and he should not use the Islamic terrorist attack to try to get one up on may

May is also making political points when she said "enough is enough", what does that even mean?

Who the fuck knows what has happened to the English spine in politics?

Churchill said "Never give up, never surrender" and now you've got government signs up literally saying "Run and Hide".......Run and Hide?!?!?! That's nowhere near "Stiff upper lip" & "Keep Calm and Carry On".....run and hide for fucks sake

[Master]

It is run, hide and tell.

Must be nice to have a government that treats you like retarded preschoolers

And that's all I meant too, when the govt rather than saying WE STRONG BRITISH ARE NOW OUT IN A SHOW OF FORCE AND MIGHT TO PROTECT YOU! tells you instead not to be alarmed by the proud, valiant military police protecting you. My comment on Khan had nothing to do with Trump's out of context tweet Master.

Having civilians with guns is not the answer for us and would make it more dangerous.

We have armed police and I trust them over a civilian with a gun. In fact they would be more dangerous.
