To wonder why Corbyn is seen more dangerous than Boris?

[malificent7]

As I am struggling to see how anyone could be more dangerous that Boris and his awful cabinet.

Because he is more dangerous to the people who control the media.

Well that didn’t take long to explode into left wing conspiracy theory.

Because that’s what the billionaire press want. I’m a Blairite and want David Milliband in charge but even I can see the hysterical anti Corbyn stuff is bollocks.

Hardly a conspiracy if its true.

He’ll destroy Britain, that’s why. He’s a communist. Do you really want a communist running the country?

Because he is very left-wing, which scares most people in this country. And I say that as a socialist myself.

Apparently being racist, homophobic and sexist is okay, but being in an at times anti-semitic party isn’t okay.

Obviously those of us with any sense know they are equally bad.

So Boris won't destroy Britain with his no deal Brexit?
If someone could outline exactly how Corbyn will destroy Britain vs exactly how Boris will destroy Britain then maybe I can decide who is more destructive!

Because people fear left wing politics, it’s too inclusive and not conservative enough.

If we do not change our ways, human civilisation as we know it will not last another hundred years due to climate change. This may sound hyperbolic, but sadly it is not. Trump, Bolsonaro and their enablers, like Boris, will destroy any chance of our grandchildren having a future. Radical change is necessary. I wish someone more competent than Corbyn was leading the alternative, but I will vote for the alternative every time.

because we are teetering on global recession regardless of what happens with Brexit and Brexit is not the cause of that recession. global treasury bonds are at an all time low and interest rates will be forced to go back down again soon.

The last thing we need in power is a populist with little or no care about the purse stringers.

The UK public is (understandably) fixated on Brexit, when that isn’t the real storm we are about to face.

He's not a fucking communist fgs!

So we want more government control of the media? Nothing vaguely sinister in that?
“ an at times anti-Semitic party”, eh? Now where did I put that disinfectant for my eyes...
The Labour Party and its followers. Repelling voters everywhere.

Because people lap up what the right wing media feed them.

Ah yes, it’s the media.
Who does this remind me of... let me think. Ah yes. Trump. It’s the media at the bottom of all his troubles too, according to him at least.

Take a look at the economic proposals McDonnell has outlined. Big companies will see their value plunge. You may think this doesn't affect you, but everyone who has saved for a pension will see that pension plunge in value as a result. But hey, the MPs with their final salary pensions will ride it out fine.

@Dogsarebetterthancatsok He's a very left wing socialist not a communist.

Who said we want more state control of the media? That is a total straw man. However, I would not object to the refunding of the BBC, a disconnection of its funding from political parties, and stronger regulation on its impartiality.

Because he is more dangerous to the people who control the media.

This in a nut shell.

Because Socialism, raaaaaaaaaggghhhh!!!!!

Which economic proposals will affect pension values?

Stronger regulation by whom? That means state control. And that is what Corbyn wants.
If he feels the media has defamed him, he has legal remedies. As he must know, given the Labour Party’s new favoured counsel (carter fuck and partners).

I can't stand Corbyn or Momentum but it blows my mind that anyone can think he is worse than what we have now
His policies are no more left than most of Europe have. Policies I would love here but we are limping towards being a mini US and who wants their policies
The Labour Party have always been held to account in a way the Tories never are

It's as much his fault we're in this mess as anyone else. He's only made up his mind which side of the Brexit fence he's on now he thinks he may get the power he craves.

He’s not even that fucking left wing - his policies would be regarded as fairly middle of the road in most of Europe
