The Jeremy Corbyn thread

[vegster]

£/$ exchange rate is where it was a month ago. Up from about 1.22 to 1.38 over 12 months.

The FT100 is up on a month ago. Down about 100pts over 12 months. (From just over 7300 to just over 7200). The recent drop was linked to the volatility on Wall Street. Also, the FT100 is not the best barometer of the UK. For this you should use the FT250, which are more UK centric companies. This is up from about 19,000 to 20,000 over 12 months.

Might drop now he's used the Russian debate to make some political point. Even his own are goading him . There's a time and place and this wasn't it.

I’m a little confused by this poll. Why is it so out of step with other polls ?
Genuine question about the methodology.

When you exclude over 45% of voters from the sample it makes the poll pretty pointless. Those excluded still get to vote !

Ah, but Remoaners don't believe that older people should get a vote. Apparently as the results of a vote won't affect them in the long run, as it does younger people! [emoji23]

Very good.

The BBC photoshopped this image of Corbyn to make his hat look more ‘Russian’ and him look like a communist dictator.

Absolutely disgraceful from a public broadcaster and testament to how right wing and Tory leaning they are.

He’s a Trotsky, what’s the problem

“Jeremy Corbyn used his position in Parliament to call for the “complete rehabilitation” of Leon Trotsky, it has emerged despite dismissing concerns about hard-Left entryism as “nonsense”.

In 1988, the Labour leader – then a backbencher – demanded the Marxist revolutionary and other communists have their achievements formally recognised by the Russian state.

Mr Corbyn was one of a series of prominent left-wingers who put their name to an Early Day Motion, a form of parliamentary petition with no standing in law, which made the call”
