I will explain with detail later. I have actualy been through the system in the past year and can explain it from my own experience, faults and all.

This is not strictly true. I can explain a bit more later....got chores to do!

Ha, I have kind of alluded to this in the last paragraph above. I remember a paper did a piece detailing all the big-ticket items in Corbyn's manifesto then showed examples of where these are routine in other countries regardless of the government.

I'm merely saying that the majority of people who support left leaning governments do not mean they they want 'communist regimes'. They simpy want a modern, caring and fairer society as I mentioned above. This is provided by a number of northern european countries which use various versions of...

You seem to be conflating two things. You refer to young people “leaning more to the left” and then suggest they do this as they have no experience of “communist regimes” which suggests this is what they want. I consider myself on the left but this doesn’t mean I want to be ruled by a British...

“complete reform of the asylum system, immediate commencement of exploratory talks to rejoin the single market, abolishment of private schools, abolishment of faith schools, the banning of foreign ownership of UK print media, immediate striking from the books of the new laws on protesting."...

I can’t read the FT as it’s behind a firewall. But the other one is scraping the barrel a bit. I don’t doubt that things which were pledges when he won the leadership might be further down the list of priorities 4 years later. After all the unprecedented and in some cases totally unforeseen...

Aside from the green stuff what else has he renounced?

I left the Labour Party sometime ago. I seem to have missed a trick with the 24 minute YouTube video.
