So, while you point may not be entirely wrong you example is invalid.

Corbyn is attacked for not going to the rugby world cup opening ceremony along with a host of tory freeloaders as he had a prior engagement.
And his prior engagement was....? Meeting constituents and helping to sort out problems..ie his job.

What, he couldn't meet his constituents at the rugby match? And he calls himself an ENGLISHMAN?

Corbyn also is much less likely to have ****** a *** than Cameron.

Now we know why Milliband struggled with his bacon butty........eeewwwww
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Greased a pig?
Milked a cow?
Partook a fig?
Owned a pit?
Watered a Yew?
Eaten a rib?
Pleased a fan?
The suspense is killing me.
Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

Well, do we have to?Simply payinf for something doesn't mean you own it - even in a democracy.
It's another conceptual or even metaphysical question - what sort of ownership is he referring to, and what is the nature of ownership in general?

I probably would vote for Corbyn. He has talked about greater democratisation.

When has that concept ever failed...? Let's hope we are not the next Greece or Venezuela which such great ideas as raising everyone's wage, purchasing loads of land and then building houses on them and then loosing money on the whole project
I would like to see greater democratisation at a local level where what people want is frankly less dangerous and more relevant - removing party affiliation from all local councils so there is more chance they are chosen on what they do not which party they are from.

Re: Our Lord, J.C.
I am not saying that Corbyn couldn't make catastrophic mistakes. Of course he could. But I think randomly making up what those mistakes could be is nonsense.Oh Good! More Power To The People!

I am very much in favour of local democracy and the removal of formal party structure at that level.
