For some strange reason people trust what Tory's say, remember when May said she wanted a country that " worked for everyone " and that she was the only " Strong and Stable " option..... that's going well isn't it ? but no, lets worry about the leader of the opposition's coat.

Who's worried about JC's coat (scruffy and disrespectful though it undoubtedly was)? The sidekicks that he's got in his shadow cabinet are a real cause for concern. I wouldn't want Abbott or Thornberry running the local soup kitchen, let alone the country - and yes, I am Labour; I just wish some of the people in the shadow cabinet weren't!

All this silly fuss over the coat worn by Jeremy Corbyn and nobody has even mentioned that the scotch bloke from The SNP wore a bloody SKIRT.
How disrespectful was that.

JC is not my cup of tea but if he wore a black Hugo Boss suit and a cashmere mix coat the lunatics in here would have found something else to have a go at him or call him out for being a champagne socialist.
All because you don't like him and/or his politics.
Last year he avoided the vol au vents and spent the day talking to vets and servicemen, maybe he thought it may rain and his coat was more suitable for the weather seeing as he is going to be outside for most of the day unlike the others.
Time for a lot of people on here to grow up.

This.

Totally pathetic on this day for right wing twatters to go on and on about a nonentity's clothes, almost like he's about to become PM. As I noted elsewhere, I have no time for Corbyn but this inappropriate labour-hate (that's what it seems to be) is almost enough to have me vote for Corbyn. Almost.

I get your point about selling arms, but what do you do if you actually work in one of these industries manufacturing these items for the government, do you quit your job.

Arms are not just manufactured for our Governments but they do help sell them. To answer your question Ivor Caplin quit his job as MP to sell arms. Anyone working for such a company would likely be responsible for deaths. Deaths in Yemen are top of the current charts.
Useless remembering the dead if we cannot learn.

I'm no Corbyn fan, in fact I hate him with an absolute passion but he is hardly sporting a donkey jacket in bin man attire. There's so many reasons to dislike him it's a shame to pick on something so trivial.

Isn’t it traditional for Labour leaders to wear socialist type attire at these high profile events, it makes them stand out from the rest, remember Michael Foot all those years ago at the Cenotaph.

That's why Tony Blair and Gordon Brown yesterday were wearing very nice overcoats, then.

And for all you know he wore a practical coat for his needs ,if like in previous years he intends to stay out in the cold and maybe wet to talk to the veterans and their needs. Unlike other MPs who have done their PR bit for today.

Here we go again with your extreme left wing diatribes.

In your opinion has Jeremy Corbyn ever done anything wrong? Ever?

I wore my old raincoat down to the Worthing remembrance ceremony today, I suppose I must have no regard for our heroes either, but, at least I turned up.

You are not earning the same money as Jezza, or have access to presentation advice like him. Not your fault you are a fashion no no.

Your not the leader of the opposition for the UK Government and being watched by millions on TV either , thus being in the position of being able to wear exactly what you like and without fear of being derided by anybody at all ....Well done for turning up

What, for pointing out that JC has, in he past, spent time after the commemoration ceramony taking to veterans? In what world is that an extreme left-wing view? Of course he has, but wearing a rain coat isn’t one of them. If you think it is you are either so hell bent on smearing the man you can’t see sense or you are utterly pathetic.

Not about being shallow, it is about showing respect, Jezza doesn't like military stuff and shows his contempt by looking like tramp.


I’m not sure you actually know what a tramp looks like if you think JC looked like one. If you’re more concerned about the perceived lack of respect for wearing a coat over say, the current PM laying a wreath whilst simultaneously selling weapons to countries committing war crimes with said weapons you need your head examining.

Do you think Corbyn would stop these arms sales when thousands of jobs depend on them in Labour areas. I doubt it

And that’s relevant because...? If he did come to power and didn’t stop the sale of weapons to countries we know are killing innocent people and then went to lay a wreath at a war memorial I’d be pointing out his utter hypocrisy too.
