You will be pleased to know that, in the not too distant future, the re-education of you and your ilk in one of Chief Comrade Corbyn's gulags will be completely free of charge.

Cheers, nice to see someone with a sense of humour...

[Hamble]

I hope those Gulags cost us less than Blairs Guantanomo Bay Alumni.

17 received £20 million in compensation claims for ill treatment.

Comrade Corbyn and his pathalogical liars are just successful enough to persuade our current crop of dumbed down students to vote for them. They could promise them anything and Generation Snowflake would believe what they say.

Tuition fees were a Labour policy, first implemented by a Labour government in 1998, after all. The BBC, Guardian and Commie Corbyn try to give the impression it was all those wicked Tories...

My first reaction to any post/article claiming a Politician has told a porky or has been economical with the truth is - 'you don't say'.
Let's face it they all do it but on this one I really have to take my hat off to Corbyn et al.
The middle aged and senior citizen vote was always going to be a tight one with a bit of nip and tuck here and there - nothing really to gain or lose.
Labour however did what all budding entrepreneurs dream of doing and that is identifying the niche market which is begging to be sold something and that market is the student.
Offer them banning Trident and despite protestations to the contrary most of them couldn't really give a damn.
Spout endless Euro waffle and it grabs them about as much as a 5 hour documentary on the decline of the herring fisheries.
But - offer them a get out of gaol card on the biggest debt they'll have after a mortgage and guess what - yes - students voted for Corbyn in their droves - who'd have thought that would happen eh?.

Watch out for Conservative Central Office offering to abolish VAT on blue rinse and shortbread biscuits with Vince Cable announcing free hand wringing workshops.

Nicola Salmond or whatever her name is will probably ask when the herring fisheries repeat is on!

No different to people being persuaded to vote Tory with the promise of a few tax cuts here and there while their public services vanish.

Well that persuasion didn't work too well.

The somehow think Corbyn The Musical is slipping into a Panorama Special.

Probably make a good show, damn sight better than your heroes, who have announced that the gas explosion in New Ferry doesn't qualify for government assistance as it wasn't severe enough, the electrification and upgrade to northern rail services HS3? has been cut back and will continue to be a mixed electric and diesel service, because it isn't worth digging up and erecting overhead cables plus of course cost, yet there is plenty of money to grease the palms of the DUP, plus to add insult to injury Cross Rail 2 has just been announced costing £BILLIONS, support for the North, you must be joking.

While we're at it, for Brexiteers, trade deals with the world outside of the EU, much concern has been voiced regarding food standards particularly the practise of washing chicken in chlorine as a guard against infection, much cheaper than keeping livestock disease in the first place, how do you fancy bleached chicken as per USA standards?.

Interesting to note that nearly 60% of student loans are likely to be written off in any case, because the graduates will not earn enough to start repayments.

In my view it is something of a timebomb of deferred expenditure.

At least it will be in tune unlike the elastic Tory Cabinet being pulled and twisted in all directions. Plus the Redwood Group have taken the chance to stab May in the back whilst she is auditioning for the Sutton and Cheam Operatic Society presentation of "The Sound of Music" by walking in the Mountains wearing a Nazi uniform.

It gets them elected more often than not. Unfortunately.

After DUP aid to poverty in N.I we are still 8.5 Billion in profit from Corbyn's gift aid to students.

As for chicken I have been to USA many times and had no ill effect from eating (much tastier than UK )bleached chicken.
