The electorate rejected it back then and they'll reject it again if Corbyn becomes Labour leader. And that'll leave no effective opposition against Cameron and Osborn which will prove a disaster for this country.
Yep....socialism is dead....it died when Michael Foot (who in my opinion was the best prime minister this country never had) was considered unelectable by the newspaper barons of the day because he always appeared unkempt. The sheep listened and voted Thatcher in...

Meanwhile Thatcherism is flourishing...

Wonder where the thatcherites expect the guy who empties the bins, fixes the burst pipes or drives the ambulance to live.

Meanwhile the tory-lite labour party is pretty much near the knuckle advocating electoral fraud, as three candidates are telling their supporters to vote anyone but Corbyn as a second choice.

As for his nationalisation and welfare ideas, thats what they are at this stage, thoughts and ideas, they are not policies, they are not set in stone, despite what the daily mail and its ilk are claiming.

I don't see anyone asking what Burnham or Coopers 'policies' are, I only see press reports damning Corbyns none existent 'policies'
