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.

@StarbucksSmarterSister

I am actually criticizing him ....

OP posts:
StarbucksSmarterSister · 27/11/2019 18:58

but he does have something ...

A complete lack of integrity? Grin

After all the OP could go and express her views on one of the many yhrefs currently running.

This just seems ridiculous and mean spirited in its focus and it's good to see that other Tory voters aren't endorsing it.

@ilovesooty

Eh?? What are you actually on about??

JoannaObrien · 27/11/2019 19:07

Corbyn is old labour and not what this country needs or ever needs ..

And Johnson is a dishonest scoundrel. Depends on if you prefer the rock or the hard place. But there's no point in debating on this thread anymore because I'm not 12.

ilovesooty · 27/11/2019 19:23

Yes there is a typo (one word mangled) in my previous post. To clarify :

This is a pointless and mean spirited thread.
Even another Tory voter has appeared to challenge your comments
There are already plenty of threads to post one without starting this unpleasant one

ilovesooty · 27/11/2019 19:24

post on just in case your comprehension difficulties strike again.

marvellousnightforamooncup · 27/11/2019 19:27

I'm voting for Corbyn because if the Tories get in and we have a hard Brexit, and the NHS is sold off in a US trade deal then I will probably have to sell my house to pay for the drugs my child will need to keep him healthy.

You may say that's scare mongering but that's a chance I'm not willing to take. Johnson has lied about nearly everything during his brief Prime Ministership and we're talking about glasses. I mean, just fuck off.

InglouriousBasterd · 27/11/2019 19:29

This is absolutely disgusting.

MonChatEstMagnifique · 27/11/2019 19:31

Yes, I agree. Most adults are able to disagree on things such as politics without having to resort to things about personal appearance. The OP may gain that skill one day.

tttigress · 27/11/2019 19:32

There are rumours that he has had a minor stroke hence the need for the fresnel prism glasses.

Also one eye seems to be druping.

Some of his answers list night around debt were bizarre, he seem like he was either losing interest or concentration.

Would be good if both candidates had a medical and published the results.

easyandy101 · 27/11/2019 19:33

This is what it boils down to for so many people though

"I don't like his glasses, I don't like his anorak, i don't like his face"

It's nothing new but politics is fucked

fligglepige · 27/11/2019 19:34

He actually looks quite sexy with his glasses sitting low like that.

ilovesooty · 27/11/2019 19:35

There are rumours

Pathetic.

fligglepige · 27/11/2019 19:37

'Corbyn is old labour and not what this country needs or ever needs ..'

What does the country need then? Please do educate us.

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 27/11/2019 19:42

This country needs to move away from playground politics.

LookingforBakedAlaska · 27/11/2019 19:45

@marvellousnightforamooncup I work in a role where I deal with rare and life limiting conditions. Almost all of the drugs I encounter that the NHS use come from large American pharmaceutical companies. Realistically what difference will Brexit make to our current trade arrangements with these companies? I don’t think it is as big as a deal as the spin doctors are making out.
