SO UNCLE Jeremy Corbyn says that “The Conservative Party supports only the rich”.
Oh dear, that’s stopped me in my tracks.
To think that I’ve voted Conservative for several elections and I am not one of the (filthy) “rich”.
But quite comparatively, one of the (filthy) “poor”.
I’ll not say which way I’ll vote this time but simply add that old Jeremy is still singing from the same old hymn sheet which first appeared 117 years ago when the rich were rich and the poor were, unlike today, very, very poor indeed.
Can you imagine Jeremy representing this country on the world stage?
Any one of the other leaders would eat him alive – and probably us with him.
His fully demonstrated abilities as a leader are less than zero.
Why on earth does the Labour Party always “elect” a so-called leader who gainsays some quite intelligent and admirable Labour MPs thus causing them to lose votes?
