Fleccy - there’s barely a fag paper between us. I don’t know why you “talk “ to as though I support Corbyns policies, when I’ve said again and again I do not.
There’s only two differences in our thinking
First is I think the Conservative party has been hijacked, I don’t recognise it or it’s actions. It’s been bad for a while, I’m appalled by the way it has behaved towards “ordinary people”. I’ve already given examples but they all come under the banner of unnecessary contempt
I have no faith in the current collection of cabinet ministers or their attitude towards their democratic responsibilities to us all
It’s gone to far, they have gone too far and they will go further, already a long way down the road already too heavily in bed with far right America & everything that brings with it, including questions about Russian money.
I think it’s time to go left, I’d rather it was less left but if Corbyn goes too far, I’ll vote right next time, because that’s the only way citizens in this country can control political extremes.
Voting for bad behaviour from a government can only lead to one thing, subsequent politicians will become more and more extreme to win power, might want to think where that will lead for our kids.
I personally believe it’s a voters responsibility to look beyond self interest and deliver their actual responsibility to maintain our precious democracy.
Brexit is a perfect example where citizens failed in my opinion & the reason why we are where we are. Soon as the leave campaign engaged in deception, made no attempt to describe what a leave voter actually meant, ran 3 separate funded campaigns (2 of which by very shady characters & money) vote leave, beleave & leave EU all selling different leave options it was an abuse of our system & people should have turned their back on it
This doesn’t even begin to consider the deliberate division & echos of pre war like claims of “Will of the people” “judges are enemies of the state” and many more. In my opinion these things are a disgrace & undeserving of a vote, regardless of what I want to happen
I realise you will say a labour government is just as bad, but it’s not actually is it? & if it is they won’t get very far before we can go right again back and forth until we get a government we deserve.
