Jeremy is a curse to labour party. He should resign from leadership. Sick fellow.

Myself and most people I know are voting for the Brexit party.

Socialism is a rigid ideology that always ends in tyranny.

Socialism always promises progress, but it inevitably delivers scarcity, corruption and decay.

Socialism has little regard for the middle class. It’s all about securing and maintaining power for the ruling class.

Modern socialists believe that the world has become so complicated, so complex, so globalized, that regular citizens just can’t manage things. We, and only we (say the socialists) are equipped to run things. Hence, for example, it’s imperative to nationalise everything, since “the little people” can’t be trusted to make intelligent, informed decisions

Rather than empower the common man, socialists believe in empowering bureaucracy. In their minds, bureaucrats will always make decisions based on science and dispassionate reason – and make sure those decisions are implemented and enforced efficiently.

It’s an elitist, intellectually arrogant belief, and it’s dangerous

Eastern Europe under communism became a monument to bureaucratic inefficiency and waste. Throughout the Soviet bloc, life expectancy declined dramatically and infant mortality soared.

But it’s no laughing matter. Just ask the people of Venezuela. Mr Corbyn supports this government and quotes how socialism worked here

The socialist regime there nationalized the electricity sector a dozen years ago. Today, blackouts in the once-prosperous Latin American nation have become routine. Electricity isn’t all that’s in short supply. Gasoline is scarce in the oil-rich nation, as are food and medicine.

Come on people. Give old comrade Corbyn the chance and he’ll run the country down the drain like socialism always does. Don’t forget how much he admires the ‘socialist’ achievements of Venezuela and Cuba... although he’s gone quiet on that recently. Time for a moderate labour leader
