Re: Labour Leadership Contest
A good strong democracy needs a good strong Government.
But it also needs a good strong Opposition.
Without both it's in danger of ceasing to be a democracy.
Corbyn seems a nice quiet guy but nice quiet guys don't come out on top, especially when their policies are so dated. He's never given us a costing for re-nationalising the railways and the utility companies, free tuition fees, nationalising the banks, removing all elements of privatisation from the NHS etc.
Stripping off a few hundred rich bankers and fat cats won't pay for all that.
Even the Russians and the Chinese have progressed beyond his ideas. North Korea hasn't, do any of us fancy that?
