Just seen the latest proposal of that possible Labour leader he wants women only carriages n trains, some of his ideas are stupid hope he does not win, because things like renationalisation of rail etc costs money, to pay for most of his ideas in his world , it would increase the basic rate of Income Tax to 35%.

A bit of light relief, much needed at the moment smile

Watched the Panorama about Corbyn.
Strange the way that the Labour establishment say he is not electable.
Tristram Hunt said he would not get people to vote for him, but the Labour party needed to connect to its roots. Isn't that what Corbyn is doing?

Corbyn and Cooper were both at the Durham Gala, but only Corbyn was asked to speak.

Hunt is talking new labour

Great acceptance speech. Really inclusive but passionate about his beliefs and an equal society.

PMQ will be interesting, Corybyn will be calm and Cameron will get red in the face with his pathetic attempts at jokes and loss of temper

Ana Sat 12-Sept-15 12:16:06

I'm not so sure Corbyn will be calm - he seems very touchy on certain subjects and gets quite ratty!

Anniebach Sat 12-Sept-15 12:18:04

We will have to wait and see

Ana Sat 12-Sept-15 12:19:20

Yes, it will indeed be interesting.
