Jonny5 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 This is Jeremy Corbyn's inspiring speech from Glastonbury. No wonder the kids love him. Wow, just wow... http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/watch-jeremy-corbyns-glastonbury-speech-10682448 It's because they are too naive to realise that he wants them all unionised and working for the state and/or in a factory.

I1L2T3 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hmmm... ... it all seems very hypocritical to me! £200+ for a ticket and Mr Corbyn points out the message on the wall to Trump - "Build bridges not walls". If there was no wall at Glastonbury then it's unlikely any of those there would be enjoying themselves because the place would be swamped with gatecrashers... ... something to think about? Or maybe the fact it does cost that much a ticket should have the Tories worried. You know what the demographic of the Glastonbury crowd is these days?

Andy1976 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Let's be real here. They'd cheer one of Bono's rants at Glastonbury. I've cheered some complete garbage whilst drunk at festivals!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowt2pctoday Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 how much further down can Corbyn stoop to push his political agenda? if i had paid £2-300 quid the last thing i want to see on stage is some scruffy socialist preaching on the HOPE stage, the mans a liability, keep music festivals just that, MUSIC!

Berberis Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Corbyn is the personification of all the angst felt by the younger generations. It will only get bigger. Its the start of something that will be compared to the 60's I feel. You have to understand that from Generation Y and up (the children of the Baby Boomers) feel disconnected, disenfranchised and disadvantaged compared to the generations that went before them. They missed out on the gold plated pensions and for this have to pay more than their parents. They are priced out of home ownership by again their parents generation who are using their wealth to buy up homes and rent them back to the younger generations to make more money. They did not receive the student grants or financial help to go to University unlike their parents. They have seen real terms pay deflation and they will be the first generation to be poorer than their parents. They listen while the 50+ generation tells them "everything was so much better in their day" while simultaneously being told they have never had it so good. They are being taken out of the EU against their will, emasculated by the older generations telling they know best. You can only hold down groups of people for so long before they find a leader and revolt. Its happening, in Jeremy Corbyn they have found a voice, someone to follow, a conviction politician who stands by his word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mother Theresa can only dream of the adulation jezza gets, in fact that's exactly what she arogantly thought when calling for an election. Have to give it to her tho.. she does look like some surreal white overaged female rapper on X factor with the neck bling.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 It just reinforces the fact that he's a good speaker and rabble rouser for demonstrations - something he's being doing for years. But it doesn't make him a good leader or statesman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also aware that Gen Y and onwards are a growing band of potential voters, a rich seam to tap into. The boomers are in decline, as an inevitable result of Biology:) It just reinforces the fact that he's a good speaker and rabble rouser for demonstrations - something he's being doing for years. But it doesn't make him a good leader or statesman. He's a far better politician than any of the Tory front bench. They know that too, hence all of their (failed) mudslinging.
