Jeremy Corbyn FAILS to boost Labour's popularity, dire poll results reveal JEREMY Corbyn winning the Labour leadership has done nothing for the party's popularity. http://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/606532/Jeremy-Corbyn-fails-boost-Labour-popularity-poll Unquote:===================== I personally believe this has more to do with most of Labour MPs rather than Corbyn. The moment he was selected as the Leader for Labour party, the attacks began. Clearly this was noticed by population, especially when a number stated they would defect to LibDems at one point if Corbyn did not comply with what they wanted him to do. The Labour party is deeply divided, and Corbyn is backed into a corner. He very little support, and I seriously doubt he would be able to win any election the way things stand. |

Rubbish the economy was built over decades and most of those under NL. The reason why unskilled jobs are not getting the same rate of wage increase is due to the fact that there is a continued over supply. The Gov. seemingly does not have the instruments to moderate the inflows to that pool. Claiming that this situation was magic-ed into being after the 2010 GE is pure BS and you know it. In truth this Gov. has done more to elevate the situation than the previous one by increasing tax thresholds and the NLW. More can be done, but first we need to generate surpluses. |

Yes fair point NewLabour and Old Labour were just as much if not more to blame for taxing jobs But Cameron has had over 5 years to reverse the evils and he has not. He is now as culpable but what do we see? We see him and the wider Tories claiming great credit for figures that actually show greater social division pressures. |

I am happy to agree that Cameron is culpable as he and his mate moderated the rate at which the Public Sector Deficit will be cut hence postponing those cuts in taxes required by Workers. I would love to see the basic rate of tax threshold increased to ~£15,000, VAT back down to 17.5% and Employers NI abolished, but I do not expect to see such until we are in surplus. I do not expect to see the economy in surplus. |
