He does seem to be in the wrong country.

[Unsureme]

Been busy,hasn’t he.

[TheDevil]

If you're going to list all the things Jeremy Corbyn has done, you should either add all of his actions, positive and negative, or compare only his negative actions to negative actions of the current PM.

None of this is the case, I consider this thread contentious.

[naomi24]

A contentious thread involving a politician. Now there's a first! ;o)

[ToraToraTora]

only 50 DD?

[douglas9401]

50's fine Tora, any more would start to look obsessive.

[pumpjack]

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr these weak gutless mice in power sicken me.

why , what has happened in our society .
i was banned from facebook recently , why ? because i made a comment that shamina begum should be hung by the neck ,
my exact words were " this filthy sewer rat should be hung by the neck "
and so should any terrorist , their supports ( corbyn ) should be jailed or expelled !!!!

[theshedman]

The Devil, funny how you don't seem to find all threads by diddly and Gulliver to be contentious when they are all about things they say Boris has done.

[emmie]

I don't think Boris is an IRA sympathiser nor is he an apologist for ISIS or any terror group.
He has lots of faults but these two I don't believe
he has.

[CrapAtCryptics]

Makes you wonder when he has time to look after his constituents unless those people listed are his constituents.

[andy-hughes]

It's easy to compile a list of contentious activities for a politician as principled as Mr Corbyn is - even if people don not share his principles - and the Mail has been on a major assassination crusade with Mr Corbyn's reputation in its sights for some time now.

It will add to the Mail readership's contempt for Mr Corbyn, but probably have little effect with those who believe he is a fit and proper future Prime Minster.

[dannyk13]

AH//as principled as |Mr. Corbyn is//
Given the know facts about his conduct how on earth can you think that he is principled ?

[emmie]

he's not a proper future Prime Minister though is he, be fair and honest.

[davebro]

he's not even a fit and proper leader of the opposition!

[andy-hughes]

danny K - // AH//as principled as |Mr. Corbyn is//
Given the know facts about his conduct how on earth can you think that he is principled ? //

A man can have a set of principles which are utterly at odds with the rest of the population, but that does not mean they are not principles, nor does it prevent him from abiding by them.

Believing yourself to be right does not make you right, but it does make it what you believe.

A fine upstanding Englishman who loves his Queen and country ...NOT

[Peter Pedant]

// were " this filthy sewer rat should be hung by the neck "
and so should any terrorist // - and they chucked you off? why man you should be on the govts protect anti terrorist scheme

and here on AB at least 60% agree with you. Funny - I was thinking about her - soon to land at Heathrow I think. Turkey has just deported 4 of their own to France. "Alors mes enfants, l'avion qui atterrisera a quatre heures...." was the first they knew of it.
shameema is a girl that just wants to get on quietly and live her holy islamic life ...at taxpayers expense.
