UK Politics Thread

[Furunculus]

corbyn has one redeeming quality as a politician:
he is willing to espouse ideas he believes in regardless of whether he loses favour among his peer group for publicly diverging from the consensus.
i admire that enormously.

alright, he has another redeeming quality (as human being):
he seems to be a decent man.
but this is of limited value in politics.

in all other realms I disagree with corbyn intensely:
he is doctrinaire, in pursuing ideas long since demonstrated to be a failure.
in order to achieve his collectivist dream, he is willing to throw overboard all the individual liberty i hold dear.
