WHEN WILL BRITAIN (AND THE TORIES) WAKE UP TO THE THREAT OF A CORBYN GOVERNMENT?

IT IS easy for pundits and commentators over here to mock the seemingly endless hire-and-fire chaos that grips the White House, with was-he-fired resignations being announced in a constant stream. But there is a bigger story here. The crown’s so-called Loyal Opposition is being utterly transformed as it swerves so far to the anti-British hard-Left as to become indistinguishable from the British Communist Party. Moderate councillors are ousted, MPs who have served the party and their constituents for decades are undermined. Now six more senior staff at party HQ have resigned as extreme Left Jennie Formby is made general secretary.

Back in the early 1980s under the flaccid non-leadership of Michael Foot the Trotskyite ultras made their lunge for control under the mantle of “entryism” but they never got anywhere near this far. What must worry anyone who loves this country has to be the non-contest being offered by the Conservative Party. There seems to be no awareness that millions of votes today depend upon what the voter saw (and believes) online. This new monster the internet dominates the thinking and therefore the voting intentions of more and more of the gullible, who in turn seem to be more and more of the population. Mastery of the internet and of these so-called social media is becoming inseparable from political success and in this rivalry it looks as if the lying Left is winning by a mile.

Technically there are still more than three years to the next election and it may be the bizarre Corbyn phenomenon will implode. But that would depend on a final nationwide realisation that a Corbyn government would bankrupt our nation. And if that implosion does not occur?
