To still be cross at Jeremy Corbin's anorak

[popcornwizard]

It's 11 hours after the event, but at the cenotaph amongst all of the black coats stood Jeremy Corbin in a blue anorak with hood flapping, is this really the best he could do?

So its wrong to point out the illogical arguments regarding this?

It's like a thread version of Reeves and Mortimer's "You wouldn't let it lie!"

I hope he continues to do everything just the way that he has always done. It will be good for the country if he follows all the causes that he passionately believes in because it means he will never be prime minister. Hopefully next year he will turn up in shorts and flip flops!

So its wrong to point out the illogical arguments regarding this? It's not a logical subject. It's an emotional and subjective response to something.

There's nothing logical about him wearing that anorak when he has a perfectly good black coat. When he saw it wasn't raining at the Cenotaph he could have left the anorak in the building but he didn't he knew perfectly well what he was doing. He choose to upset people by wearing it.

Enlighten us as to just how he is dangerous? Then explain how Theresa May & co are not?

I would point you towards the newspapers for modern day examples of how his policies play out and the history books for even more. And no, telling people the others didn't do socialism properly isn't an excuse.

There would be far more poor and hungry people under Socialism. We also probably wouldn't even be allowed this thread because socialism comes with a nice blob of oppression and censorship on the side.

I love this thread

We won't let it lie.

I'm no fan of Corbyn by any stretch but his blue coat isn't one of them.

You wouldn't let it lie!

I can't let it lie.

Mind he could have tucked the hood in to the special zipped compartment in his collar to stop it flapping around you know?

He's just not that organised.

To fair to him he may have ridden his bike there and a short coat was easier.
I have seen him in said coat on his bike. That's enough fairness for the moment

He also attended a second event in Islington afterwards.

It did rain in London on Sunday.

He was wearing the same coat on the news the other day where he spoke to reporters in his usual churlish manner then turned the wrong way up a one way street.

I think it looked like it might start spitting that day too.

Maybe a pac a mac is the answer.

A wee raincape.

Oh Yes! I can see him in a little rain cape.

A little something like this.

He was wearing the same coat on the news the other day where he spoke to reporters in his usual churlish manner then turned the wrong way up a one way street.

Ha ha - saw that too. A smart arse response to the reporter outside his house, then off he wobbled on his bike turning left at the end of the street in front of a right turn only sign. Whether it was an act of petulant defiance or ineptitude it pretty much sums the man up.

@purits I can't imagine it was sprung upon her - I'm sure it would have been on the itinerary for their trip to Malta. Note that she's also wearing one of the metal poppy pins.

Can I point out how difficult it would be for JC to ride a bike from Islington to Whitehall, in the rain, wearing a heavy wool overcoat. So I expect he very sensibly left it in the wardrobe. Communist!

I didn’t know about the cycling thing. What a fantastic story.

An MP who has refused more than any other in history to do what his party asked of him. And then he even refuses to observe a road sign. By turning left! Brilliant.

Nicely spotted kissing, Double Communist

It's weird that the public seem to have such high standards of how party leaders should act/dress/behave, yet almost every person ever elected to lead this country has been a monumental prick.

@LasMeninas amen. It's almost as though people care more about pointless tradition than actual morals and leadership qualities.

And being from Northern Ireland, it's more true here than anywhere else.
