    Re: 2020

    I used to work for a large company. They held a meeting with all their staff to talk about their plans for the future and the workload expected. They introduced their meeting as their '20/20 vision'. We all sat there in silence while they laughed at how whimsical they were. By the end of the meeting, we were told loads of us were losing our jobs as they were going to export them to China.p

    No one has been able to do anything about it have they - so why not try something different.

    Well it looks like he'd probably cut out all this demonising of the poor whilst simultaneously ensuring the little money they did have goes instead to the richest in the country.
    I'd say most governments have always attempted to improve the lives of the poor - they just go about it differently. So what you have said about Corbyn has been tried by governments of all colours previously

    Well if you think the poor of this country have not been demonised in recent years then you and I have very different world views, which I'm more than prepared to accept in this case because trying to change your mind on any topic is like trying to throw rocks at the moon.

    Re: 2020

    Demonised insinuates a deliberate attempt to target and I disagree any government in the uk for the past 150 years has set out to do that.

    You are talking about the law of unintended consequences which is something different

    You seem to have given up on things changing for the better. - you have either lost hope or you don't really care - or something else.

    Back in the 80's there was an appetite for privatisation especially after all the strikes and strife in the 70's. I have always felt that in time the electorate might want a return to nationalisation in key areas.One being the railways.

    Re: 2020

    The unions got their man elected today and we should now see clear policy differences. One observation is that uk elections are generally won in the centre ground. If labour shift left they may offer a clear difference, but I doubt it's a difference that will resonate with enough of the electorate.

    OK - we cannot know whether this is yet another false dawn - but let's not underestimate it - or be overly cynical about it.

    Re: 2020

    I think Corbyn won because the unions flooded labour's ranks with union members to get their man. I wouldn't necessarily say it's an indication of the population as a whole.

    The unions have got their party back. Time will tell whether a movement that only represents one sixth of the workforce and doesn't represent the pensioners or student vote will have enough to get them over the line.
