Say that all workers will be paid ten pound an hour that will break some companies and force them to take their businesses abroad ,or have I missed something?

He can say what he wants because he knows he won't have to deliver. |  |

So you think it's right that the state therefore has to subsidise these companies through the payment of Working Tax Credits? |  |

Implicitly yes...
Based on the current system, either the company pays the real value of the employees labour, or the state has to pay through tax credits.
If you are against one it supports the other | |

"Break some companies and send them abroad"
Brexit will do that though. |  |

strangely his is a campaign which throws all election logic on its head. he is consciously setting out to narrow his support. the more 'pure' he remains, the more he says what his supporters want to hear (and, in turn, the more he ignores the wider electorate), the better the chances of momentum retaining control of the party. repeal trade union legislation, cancel trident, walk away from Iraq, don't fight isis - he's saying what a narrow group of supporters want to hear. 'let corbyn be corbyn' is code for 'give up on the general election and fight the next leadership election instead'. |  |
| And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show |

You and I both know that the battle Corbyn and McDonnell want to win isn't the one on June 8th. It's the battle to win the Labour Party from top to bottom. | |

I want Blair to nut up or shut up. Can he get on the ballot somewhere? If so, he should then contest the leadership election in a couple of months. Let's see who really runs Labour, the Trots or the Blairites. |  |

......or a little less for the shareholders and more for the people producing the wealth. The tax credit comment is bang on the money too. (Those blasted corporate/land owning benefit spongers! ) |  |

I'm intrigued by how you will decide to vote. I think you'd vote for a Labour party that would work for you but this one doesn't. So where does that leave someone like you? |  | | |

It's certainly interesting to see the press coverage a politician gets when he goes against what the establishment wants. Coded in the post above as 'the wider electorate'. | |

God forbid workers are actually paid a decent wage. If your business is only surviving because you underpay your staff then frankly you deserve to go under. |  |

i will vote labour and i would encourage others to do likewise. in 2017 this is based on 2 things (1) there is no prospect whatsoever of corbyn ever winning or becoming prime minister (if there were my vote would be different); (2) all we can choose between is a tory majority of 120 and a tory majority of 60 - the later is preferable because it will soften brexit and it will enable an opposition to do more in holding the government to account. | |

sorry that's just nonsense with a thin veneer of sounding a bit cool. outside of the mail and express etc - who have given every labour leader the same sort of treatment - corbyn gets bad press coverage becomes he is incompetent and isn't a credible leader. the problem is corbyn not the press. | |

largely.
but 2 examples of his incompetence (and in neither case has the press made anywhere near as much of them as they might).
(1) on the first day of the campaign it took 12 hours for corbyn to clarify whether labour would hold a second referendum. so going into an election in which the main issue is inevitably going to be brexit he didn't know where the party stood on a second referendum. given that the party needs to attract back voters from ukip that is an absolutely fundamentally strategic issue. but not a clue.
(2) yesterday we had a situation where the leader said one thing about trident and the party then had to issue a correction telling him what party policy is. you can say he doesn't agree with party policy, but a situation where a key policy stance is publicly debated between the leader and the party in the middle of an election if farcically incompetent. | |

Or your business has outsourced it's work to companies outside the UK as labour is cheaper...... |  |
