[News] Jezza Corbyn and his health ?

[GT49er]

Standard reply. Anyone who dares to disagree with you must be lacking in intelligence. What a pompous person you must be. So pleased not or likely to ever meet you.

F**kin' hell - what a stupid response.. But if you couldn't see the inference .................................. well, that doesn't leave much question about which one of us is stupid. The OP is a regular poster, and usually pretty forthright and not slow in coming forward. If he says his choices of good and bad tories were nothing to do with their views on Brexit, you might have a case.
He hasn't.
You haven't.

19. On 3 December 2016, Corbyn made a visit to Terezin Concentration Camp when Jewish people were murdered by the Nazis. It was Jeremy’s third visit to such a camp, all of which were largely unreported in the most read UK papers.

23. A day later, Corbyn suspended the three times Mayor of London after complaints of antisemitic comments. Party.

24. On 29 April 2016, Corbyn launched an inquiry into the prevalence of antisemitism in the Labour Party. In spite of later changes in how the inquiry was reported, it was initially praised by Jewish community organisations.

26. In September 2017, Corbyn backed a motion at Labour’s annual conference introducing a new set of rules regarding antisemitism.

27. In the six months that followed the introduction of the new code of conduct, to March 2018, 94% of the fifty-four people accused of antisemitism remained suspended or barred from Labour Party membership. Three of the fifty-four were exonerated.

37. The NEC adopted the IHRA working definition of antisemitism and all eleven examples of antisemitism attached to it.

39. Last year, Jennie Formby wrote to the admins and moderators of Facebook groups about how they can effectively moderate online spaces and requested that any discriminatory content be reported to the Labour Party for investigation.

40. Since last year, no one outside Labour’s Governance and Legal Unit can be involved in decision-making on antisemitism investigations. This independence allows decisions free from political influence to be taken.

Blimey - all that and none of it has worked.

GCSE Latin - pfft! I did GCE Latin (three times; that's how many it took!) - so clearly longer ago than you. Hence most of it is no longer in the instantly retrievable parts of my memory bank, so I can't comment!

GCE, yes, that was it. Slip of the tongue. 1974.

In awe of Caesar's Gallic Wars ever since!

There is no way it would be forgotten in six months.

Yeah, it would. Leavers know they got through on a fluke and aload of lies. They know it's dead in the water. They were lucky to get this far.

Not gaga, certainly. Well, I like to think so, so thank you......

As for 'exit GTer' - well, I like to think not for a few years yet. But from this thread? - yes maybe. I'm sure you don't want me to bore you (or appear to be trying to score points) with details about my 'A' level history result.............................

I am/was a firm remainer. Brexit has already hit my personal finances quite significantly, more than any other individual that I know. No doubt there are others in the same or worse position than me.

As for stopping Brexit now? Boxxocks to that. The UK is currently a basket case, cannot move forwards without moving backwards in the same moment. To go back to the EU would entail the use of a begging bowl, not a pretty sight. The UK should leave as quickly as possible, deal or no deal. It is the only way to escape the ridiculous situation that exists right now.

I personally think the UK will be worse off outside of the EU, I hope I am wrong for the sake of friends and family.

There is just a little bit of me that wants those who voted to leave to see their life impacted in the same way that I have been. Selfish I know.

How has it hurt your finances already? Can you elaborate?

Exchange rates, all I will say publicly

 

[Mo Gosfield]

Exchange rates, all I will say publicly

So, without wishing to labour the point, is this an individual situation or related to business?
If its business, then I sympathise, as there are probably others involved ( staff etc ) For those of us who run our own businesses, importing, exporting and distributing, we have all been dealing with changes since 2016. We get on with it. We have to. We have to find ways to keep our businesses moving forward ( not easy at times )
Exchange rates can work for you and they can work against you. For some, who primarily export from the UK, the last three years have been good times. For others, not so good.

Nobody likes a smartarse; hey what is that in Latin?

The way I see it, Corbyn has two problems, (and dementia isn't one of them)

1) No politician can take such a ferocious and sustained barrage of abuse from the right wing press and not get dragged down. Most of the abuse is nonsensical, and is designed just to convince to the intellectually lightweight, but the sheer amount of mud being chucked means that doubt enters the minds even of those who detest that sort of publication.

2) The hordes who turned up and listened to him now won't (because of brexit). Imagine the reaction if Corbyn tried to do Glastonbury again this year. This means his strategy of going over the heads of the press to get people to share his message on social media won't work.

The Tories can balls up the country as much as they want and they'll still get in, as long as they outflank Farage by getting us out of the EU on any terms.

I'll be voting Labour. Because Peter Kyle is my MP and any other vote is a vote for the Tories, but I see a General Election as the least likely outcome of the coming chaos

Only two problems, as mentioned by your goodself?
Well, here's another one. His party is too far left to appeal to the majority of voters .
He has plenty of other problems, but that is it in a nutshell.
