Corbyn popular due to his unrealistic promises

“If we retire there’s going to be no-one left to play old, wrinkly people. We have got to keep on going” JEREMY Corbyn’s surge was entirely logical when you consider he promised a lot of free stuff to a lot of different people.

Public sector pay rises, nationalising industries like the railways, free university education, more spending on the NHS and schools and reinstating benefits that have been cut.

Sounds great. Everyone loves free stuff. Except nothing in life is really free and nothing the State does can ever be free.

All you can do is persuade other people to pay for you. You can take that money from people today, in the form of taxes or you can borrow it.

Corbyn claimed it was the former when really it’s the latter. The top 1% of taxpayers already pay 27% of all income tax.

There isn’t a magical pot of cash sitting there waiting to be tapped.

Actually, there is. It’s called your children.

You can spend the next generation’s wealth today by borrowing it.

The irony of championing “green” policies to protect the next generation’s environment while systematically bankrupting them with your spending should not be lost on anyone.

The idea of living within your means is out. Free stuff is in. And the sun is shining.

Fire up the barbecue and forget about your children, they’ll probably be fine.

Except of course, they probably won’t. Corbyn is being incredulous of human integrity – cynical.
