Subject: RE: BS: Uk Labour Party discussion II
" a sound, costed manifesto."....you must be joking, it was the old political tactic of promising everything.

We are now in the position of having to seriously consider living within our means.   I thought better of Mr Corbyn.
"Electability" is meaningless unless the economy is functioning at an efficient level....at the moment we depend on cut price immigrant labour......not a socialist principle surely? Also zero hours contracts, lack of housing, public services grinding to a halt, NHS in meltdown. How do you cost all these problems, run a full scale nationalisation project and hand out freebies to all and sundry.
It is simply impossible.

If Mr Corbyn cannot be honest with the public he is no better than the Blairites who surround him.
