AIBU?
Corbyn's Glasses

AIBU to suggest he gets them fixed?
Yesterday he seemed to being having trouble with them yet again when they kept sliding down his nose while giving a speech. I have become obsessed with them and instead of listening to what he saying I am watching his glasses.

He might have more time after the election ... especially after his car crash interview with Andrew Neil

Oh my goodness, the Daily Mail being critical of Corbyn. Whatever next, a Catholic Pope? Meanwhile, Johnson still can't remember tell us what's going on with Russian interference in the Tory Party or how he's going to stop the UK economy crashing after Brexit. But I guess we shouldn't expect too much for a man who "can't remember" how many kids he has!

Mr Corbyn can't even remember what percentage of the population pay tax and what he doesn't realise that if he makes the super rich people pay more tax they will leave this country. Where then will he get his billions to pay for all that spending he intends to do when he becomes Prime Minister? The man lives in cloud cuckoo land he should go back to the back benches where he lived for many years because that is where he belongs not as leader of the Labour Party. A lot of his members feel the same because I have asked them they want new leader who can actually become PM not someone who doesn't know how many people actually pay tax in this country and where he going to get the money to pay the women who aren't getting their pension when they expected. I am actually one of those women I would prefer him to spend the billions of pounds it will cost to give me compensation on something much more worth while. Also why won't he apologise to the Jewish community? and why is he on the fence about Brexit?

Also why won't he apologise to the Jewish community?
Because he doesn't feel he has anything to apologise for? I don't believe for one moment he is anti-Semitic although he has always condemned the State of Israel for illegal occupation of Palestine which is a completely different thing. He said any incidents of Anti-Semitism would be dealt with and have no place in the Labour Party.
why is he on the fence about Brexit? Because he has promised to have another Referendum when people can be better informed about what that actually involves. He will abide by that decision so it doesn't matter what he, personally, believes. He is acting as an unbiased referee.
He could very easily lie and make things smoother for himself, but he won't unlike Boris.

I think a man who does not care what kind of impression he creates is not PM material .... Boris is not perfect and I cannot understand why he keeps ruffling his hair but he has more idea of how to run a country than Corbyn does. This is only my opinion but I am entitled to say what I think.
