Corbyn would have had a reserved seat no doubt on that train. - This is not the issue

He was making a point that on trains people do have to stand or sit on the floors. Anyone who claims that this is not so, then they probably never travel on trains. He is fighting the battles of others - NOT HIS OWN.

People are too busy trying to smear Corbyn that they do not realise who he reperesents and who he is fighting for. It's for the ordinary person and rich wealthy business and rich and wealthy people now fear him because they rely on keeping the masses below them and without a voice . Corbyn is giving those people a voice and ''The elite have's'' don't like that

Haha! Brilliant. Let's get this right. Corbyn deliberately faked it so as to bring about a voice for the little man. It wasn't in any way an attempt to further his image of po-faced piety. Utter rubbish. If he had wanted simply to highlight the issue he could simply have got on any Southern or Thameslink train from Haywards Heath to London on any given day during rush hour and shown how bad it is for real - not this half-arsed attempt.

This is just a political stunt gone wrong. All politicians do it and eventually all politicians get caught out. Corbyn is no different.

Desperate stuff, the Cult of Corbyn rolls on towards the Abyss for the Labour Party.

This. He really could have got onto many trains that had no available seating. His dumb fault he tried to make a point on a train where seats were available. Pretty pathetic really!

Or an attempt by Branson to stand up for his smeared business?

I have no issue with Branson............I have worked with him on some things in the past. He cares about people and the service he provides to people. His business'' are mostly run by others. Thats why he is successful.

His companies are there to maximise profits first and foremost and to serve the public secondly. And therein lies the problem. A conflict of interest therefore arises.

It's not just Branson who Corbyn has in his sights. He has ''Big Business'' as a whole. We need Capitalism as a country to succeed in the world but we need to be mindful of people in there among the Capitalism. I want a better balance. I don't want to go so far left that I meet Ghenghis Kahn going right. I jst want a better balance than we have now

If that is his aim, as you point out, then at least be honest instead of such a ridiculous spin -precisely what he accuses others of. Yes, people do have to stand, and trains get crowded, but to highlight it all in such a dishonest way is absurd and justifiably rebounds on him. And why do left wingers invariably post such exaggerated nonsense - presumably you are one of the masses, and you have just expressed a voice! Try election time, as well. IF the masses have not been given what they want, or rather what you want, then perhaps the masses are not that interested in the type of politics advanced by the Corbyn hypocrits. I suspect also that the ordinary person would not like such fraudulent campaigning, unless you are one of his trots, who would have limited loyalty to parliamentary democracy, unless it happened to tally with their own views.

Then perhaps you'd do better with a centre-left candidate rather than one who has appointed a Trotskyite as his shadow chancellor, a Stalin-apologist as his head of communications and has opened the door for groups like Socialist Workers Party, Counterfire, Momentum and the Socialist Party - all hard-left, and most are non-democratic - to now have a major say in the running of a democratic socialist party.

I will have ONLY ONE VOTE the same as everyone else and I will use it how I see fit and have no others using their vote in a likewise or contrary manner

I don't need advice on who to vote for and I wouldn't tell others how to vote either

This is one of my favourite political stories in a while. Proper storm in a teacup stuff, of no real consequence, which means it's very easy to laugh at. Anyone with any brain at all knows Corbyn's right, but he's made his point in an incredibly silly way. Just film it on a busy commuter train, or take a service on a Sunday when there's one an hour on loads of routes, so it's packed.

But you're happy to tell fellow party members that they should either back the leader and support Corbyn if he's re-elected (a courtesy rarely shown by Corbyn himself when a backbencher) or leave the party. Interesting.

Corbyn has the support of the labour party members and when he wins again, these people should knuckle down and support the leader or leave the Party

It didn't take long for the truth to come out, in these days of immediate social media lies are found out and newspapers are already backtracking from the story

Who to believe - a Corbyn fanboy website or real photos showing Corbyn walking past loads of empty seats and then 40 minutes later after the PR stunt another photo of Corbyn sitting amongst a load of free seats? It's a toughie.

The photos have been proved to be false too, not that you want to believe it. Wrap you head in tinfoil and continue to listen to those voices in your head
