You've admitted you haven't read the Labour manifesto, so how do you know its garbage ? Did the Fail tell you ?

Let see, the new Govt's policies :-
Retention of the triple lock (Labour policy)
Retention of winter fuel payments for all Oaps (Labour Policy)
Capping utility bills (Ed Miliband's idea from the last Labour manifesto ! )
grammar schools (now not happening)
Free school meals (now being kept)
Fox hunting (err, forgotten about)
etc etc.

Nope still not the same.

No I have not read it, I will answer you, as I answered Ianch, when he asked me this. Never heard of reviews?

In other disgusting news. The absolute disgusting mess left by the young at Glastonbury at the weekend, where Corbyn mocked President Trump, for leaving the Paris Accord climate change etc and the crowd chanting in agreement and then they leave all their filth at the site. Friends of the Earth my arse!

We the older generation, meant to respect the young and their future. Yeah sure. Dirty disgusting pigs, if these are the future generation then we are FUBAR..

I think you're trying to change the subject from the Queens speech Mick (!)

As for just going on other peoples 'reviews' of the Labour manifesto, they could be Fake reviews/news Mick and I know how mad all that Fake stuff that makes you !

We are discussing Labour polices and I'm discussing Corbyn which is within the remit of this topic. Thanks.

I'm highlighting the massive hypocrisy, that we had Corbyn preaching his BS at the weekend at Glastonbury, him mocking Trump for leaving Paris accord and then his young disciples leave their filth and crap scattered about the fields in a truely hypocritical fashion. Most of them would probably join a protest for saving the Earth but it's ok, if they leave their filth.

Care to comment on the young leaving their crap about Mr K, you care about the Earth a great deal, just as much as I do, as it should be with everyone. So the younger generation that you preach about, leaving their crap like that, does it not bother you ?

There isn't much to comment is there? It's wrong. People shouldn't leave their crap around. It's no reflection on anyone but themselves though. It's a festival of 170,000 people though so even if 5% of people littered then it could cause an enormous mess.

I would also point out people aren't hypocrites because of the actions of people in their cohort. Corbyn would be a hypocrite if he littered. Young people who are passionate advocates of the environment, an advocacy which is not universally shared by young people nor limited to them, aren't hypocrites because other young people have littered as Glastonbury.

There will certainly be people professing to care about the environment who are in part responsible for the mess left this week and those people would indeed by hypocrites.

I digress, I should not have swept all youth in the same assumption but I tend to get vey frustrated with members on here who have double standards, that it matters less if it's a certain group or entity and or one person.

Spending money wisely means thinking of the betterment of the whole country rather then the bribery of some groups don't you think pip?.

l often assumed or stereotyped certain groups when l was younger but many events have happened since then and that does impart a much different thinking then what was once the case with alas perhaps a little more sense and wisdom.

I would vote Den for PM.
The only person worthy of that is the one standing next to me with a rolling pin.

Now you must get something right sooner rather then later Mr K as l am not a rabid loony left winger as such that you and some others wildly imagine but slightly centre left on certain policies and slightly centre right on other policies.
