So the Tory Govt has not been a disaster with bailing out banks with public money when they should have been liquidated or nationalised ?

Corbyn wants QE for the people not socialism for the rich. He also wants Govt banks that can create debt free money for infrastructure.

Our system is on the brink of total collapse and the apologists who feed off this parasitic system want it to continue.

SM,

"I can sense the spittle on your monitor. I am afraid that you are so rabidly left wing that the loony Greens would appear centrist."

Lol!...coming from OLO's RWNJ in Chief - that's amusing.

David f, has a point....

"I have read what Corbyn advocates. It appears to me as though he is for a fairer, more compassionate society than the current one in the UK. The Murdoch press and those who go along the views expressed in that press will feel their privileges threatened. It remains to be seen whether the media and Corbyn's opponents will convince the people to vote against their interests."

Just to recap, Abbott and his goons went to all that trouble to slide themselves into govt on a conveyor belt of lies, when all along they had the UK Tory agenda in mind for Australia. As soon as they were in, they revealed the real agenda - followed it up with the 2014 budget - and Voila!

The sad, sad moral of that story is that budget was never passed, Tony Abbott is out on his pink ear, Hockey is being measured up for his Washington sinecure and although Mal is still sticking to the rest of the govt effluvia, we're nowhere near the kind of societal wreckage (a la UK Tories) that the original Abbott govt had in mind.

SM, don't worry you have to get privileged access to reprogram a computer.
Poirot will not give you access.

Lol!...says the guy who is programmed to turn every thread into a discussion about oil.
