Why do people not like Jeremy Corbyn?

Like Farage. I guess it balances out the extremists.

That's your response? To call that list of serious concerns a 'naughty boy' list? That doesn't suggest his supporters have actually critically engaged with the issue, does it?

And, what do you think of the more people who voted for Boris Johnson's Conservatives, who beat Corbyn's Labour? That must mean that the many and obvious flaws of Boris Johnson are all just smears and lies, right?

Well despite your "naughty boy" list , his constituents, who had years of experience of him, voted in such numbers that he trounced even his labour opponent at the last election. Perhaps they didn't fall for it, or is it that the residents of Islington North are all just wide-eyed, anti-semitic trots from the lunatic fringe ?
The same question can also be asked of the 10 million elsewhere in the country that were prepared to vote for him.
So whilst you may disapprove of him, many don't.

I posted mine already on this thread....

Anti-West stance
Corbyn hates the West. He will automatically side with any country that also hates the West and that means he would be disastrous for the defence of the country. As I have posted before, this led to him suggesting that Assad gassed his own people, that we should allow Russia to investigate whether they were behind the novichok poisoning in Salisbury, and he blamed NATO for Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Iran is anti-west, so of course Corbyn has made several appearances on Iranian government TV.

Hanging out with terrorists
His rabidly Anti-West stance means that Corbyn spends a lot of time in the company of undesirables. Famously spent a lot of time with the IRA (a file opened on him by MI5 as a potential threat to national security), inviting two people who had been in prison for IRA-related offences to the House of Commons just after the Brighton bombings. Who else did he invite to the House of Commons? His "friends" in Hamas and Hezbollah.
Here he is saying that the British government labelling Hamas as terrorists would be a big historical mistake because Hamas are just working for peace in the region https://x.com/timescorbyn/status/1724186336922386655?s=61&t=U9XrcF693-JpMxeIueYG7g
Post October 7th, who does it appear was making a big mistake with that statement? Not Corbyn of course- he was asked by Piers Morgan to label Hamas as terrorists and he refused https://x.com/piersmorgan/status/1724169911415504901?s=61&t=U9XrcF693-JpMxeIueYG7g

That's because the hard left when challenged dig in

Brexit
Anti-West Corbyn is obviously not a fan of the EU. Perhaps that was why he made such a balls-up of Brexit policy post referendum that contributed to the election defeat against Boris Johnson who at least had a clear view. https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-corbyns-changing-brexit-stance

Corbyn before Party
Post-Brexit referendum he lost a no-confidence vote of his own MPs by 172-40. Did he resign, having lost the confidence of his colleagues? Of course not. He then led Labour to an election defeat against Theresa May. Did he then resign? No, he then led Labour to a crushing election defeat against Boris Johnson. Could a different leader with a strong stance on Brexit have taken on Johnson? Possibly. They could hardly have done worse (Labour's worst electoral defeat since 1935) - Corbyn was named as a big problem for Labour by many voters. Did he then resign? No, he said he wanted to stay on during a period of reflection. What a tit.

Blindspot for antisemitism
Antisemtism was a huge problem in the Labour Party under Corbyn and was poorly dealt with. Corbyn denied this, and the 130 page report detailing it. Calling the report overblown was what (rightly) got him kicked out of Labour. The famous anti-racist campaigner didn't support Luciana Berger, one of his own MPs who was the victim of vicious antisemitic attacks. People rightly criticise Starmer for his treatment of Rosie Duffield, but the template for the handling of Duffield was Luciana Berger. This blindspot for antisemitism is a direct consequence of his anti-West stance (which is of course automatically anti-Israel) which leads him to be around so many actively open antisemites (e.g. Hamas) that he just doesn't recognise it as a problem.

But I am not saying muslims secretly control things. I am pointing out the fact that they have a sizeable voter base, particularly some parts of the UK. Its no secret either that most muslims have strong feelings about the Gaza situation. Voter base & intentions and politicians reacting to that is democracy, not secretly controlling.

You on the other hand were arguing that KS's policy was dictated by Jewish interests even though Jews don't have the numbers to be able to influence politicians behaviour to gain their votes, so what else are you saying their influence, you claim they had, is based on?

A lot of people (myself included) fell for the narrative that he was a terrorist loving anti semite and all around bad bloke. Do I believe that now? No, I don’t and after seeing the shit show of a government we have now I think it’s our own fault for falling for the media hype around Corbyn. That said I still don’t know if I’d vote for him because I suspect he’s got very different views on immigration than I have but I’ll reserve judgment and wait and see what policies he has this time around.

What are the reasons?

Unfortunately I think Tony Blair destroyed the labour party in 1997. Jeremy Corbyn is very much like Harold Wilson in his attitude to a lot of topics from what I've read.

Exactly. As is Farage

He’s an activist and not a strategist.

No issue with anyone being the former but it is not compatible with holding an office that requires multi-faceted strategic thinking that puts the welfare of the country above personal crusades.

Your "normal" is obviously not the same as mine, sorry

He’s a middle class man from a middle class background with a fantasy, Disneyland view of the working class. He seems to think the working class are a loveable misunderstood group of people who need ‘saving’.

His policies are completely unrealistic and silly, and he wants to throw money at everyone who isn’t well off - money that isn’t there.

At the last election, he was proposing free breakfasts and school lunches for all primary children. No, Jeremy. This isn’t a Scandi country with a Scandinavian sized population and Scandinavian taxes. Why should a binman be paying for some Crouch End yummy mummy’s kids’ oat milk?

Another lunatic policy was free WiFi for everyone.

The structural deficit would get much worse if he were ever in charge. ‘Fiscal prudence’ means nothing to him.

I don't think it's high on the priorities of most normal people. Sorry.

Its not most of the British public. PP is right that most people are not motivated enough by the ME for it to effect how they vote. It is, however, a big deciding issue for Muslim voters and KS is scared of losing their votes, as are his MPs who reliant on the Muslim vote to keep their seats. .

He's hated by plenty of people that aren't the media and for reasons that aren't lies and smears and yet these always seem to be overlooked.

A man of integrity who doesn't just do what is needed to get votes (as you claim), does not lie by omission by not telling people what his stance really is (there was also immense pressure on him to tell the truth of his position which he failed to do).

A lot of posters have pointed out that Corbyn was often unclear and evasive about his real position and this led them not to trust him.

Hardly the man of integrity you are claiming.
