Surely even the most dogged, dyed in the wool & rabid follower can see the idiocy of their potential "Beloved leaders" idiocy.

Don't agree,Dave; Corbyn is the only Labour leadership candidate supporting unilateral disarmament; the others want to retain our nuclear deterrent. As for accepting asylum seekers, the fact is that both major parties are now committed to accepting asylum seekers, but of course, no one's talking numbers.

As for the other comments about beloved leaders idiocy and pinning the red rose on an ape, you could equally direct those comments to Tory voters. How anyone can support shysters and scumbags like Cameron and Osborne and in particular the odious Duncan Smith who are running the NHS and welfare state down, while rewarding their rich mates is beyond me.

However, the point I'm making is this - a lot of people keep banging on about a return to proper full-blooded socialism of the sort advocated by Corbyn. That's fine, but you have to accept that things like unilateral disarmament and a liberal, inclusive attitude to immigration are part and parcel of the socialist package. That's a fact and it isn't going to change.
