Are we seriously on the verge of electing a hard left socialist as our PM

TM has had a disasterous campaign and I absolutely do not agree with everything in her manifesto BUT JC as PM really!!!

This is the man who had to be told to sing our National Anthem, the Communist Party is supporting Labour in this election and he is known to be an IRA sympathiser. He has not dealt with anti-semytism in the Labour party. Are we really going to have him representing our country? How can we trust him with defence and security?

He might be coming across as everybody's favourite grandfather but don't be fooled he is a hard left socialist and if he and McDonald get into number 10 and 11 they will unleash their project and there will be no going back for years.

Everyday for the last few weeks, I have heard announcement after announcement of giveaways to every section of society. It is not deliverable. To all these people saying they are prepared to pay "a bit more tax" have you actually worked out what you will be paying and bear in mind Rebecca Long-Bailey said yesterday ......."there are initial tax rises in our manifesto" so be prepared for more to come and that will be on top of the Land Valuation Tax that will be payable by everyone and the wealth tax. I am not scaremongering this will be the reality.

To the woman on the Sky news report last night who said she scrimped and saved to pay for private health insurance for her 3 children because that was very important to her but that she would be voting for Labour, I have news for you Labour are putting an extra tax on private health insurance.

JC is going to rally after rally where members of Momentum turn up in large numbers to support him. He is now being put on a pedestal as some saviour to all our problems but we are sleepwalking into a socialist revolution.

You vote for your MP not the PM. Unless you are in the constituency of a party leader.

hard left socialist Grin no more so than a fairly middle-of-the-road Scandinavian politician; he wouldn't stand out at all where I'm from.

I'm voting for him because he's a socialist. Human, patient, sensible, not particularly radical.

I like JC but I do not think he is sufficiently integrated with the Labour MPs to run the country.

Sky News? Really? We know what type of person watches Sky News. Are you related to Donald Trump? Is trashy tabloid TV your sole source of information?

Oh, I missed the bit at the end about the socialist revolution. Hardly. But those Scandinavian countries which have enjoyed more centre-left governments (even the Swedish Conservatives are lefty kittens compared to British Tories) tend to score quite highly on international 'Which citizens are happiest / enjoy the highest standard of living?' type of studies. Go figure. The 'Corbyn is a Marxist' thing is a red herring.
