Re: [Update] Jeremy Corbyn wins Labour Leadership

According to my redtop the core of his speech was written in the 80's and had been rejected by every Labour leader since.

Quote:
Mr Corbyn’s panicked aides at first denied the boob, insisting just he and one close adviser had put the speech together, with any similarities “a big coincidence”.

But an hour later, after a rushed phone call to original writer Richard Heller, they admitted chunks of the work had been lifted.

It was also very short of real policies: What about Trident jobs, the EU, immigration, the deficit, the Blier Years and illegal wars, military spending, how he'd finance his benefits splurge, our relationship with the US and the drubbing that Labour got in the election?

What we did get was a load of Marxist waffle.

Be in no doubt it's tax, spend and a ruined economy with resulting rampant inflation. Policies that have failed every time they're tried.
