Twelve reasons not to vote for Corbyn (7 - 9)


7. Property Rights

As well as confiscating independent schools and privatized utilities there is the possibility that an incoming Labour Government will allow tenants to forcibly buy property of landlords at a pre-determined price. If this is true it will rip apart a large part of our understanding of our society. Anything can be up for grabs. Be very afraid.


8. Unions

Another return to the pre-eighties era. There will be a repeal of some of the Thatcher reforms and a return to collective bargaining. I honestly don't believe anyone thinks that things were better before those union reforms and that our workers are so under the heal. But, but, the new Government thinks all the years of better trade relations and individual pay packet negotiations are a bad thing. DOn't be paid on your individual merits, just be average. If you don't like it, go on strike. Jeez.


9. Defence 

It is well know that Jeremy Corbyn is a pacifist (unless a Tyrant he supports has to put down his own population), and was the leader of the Stop The West War coalition. The first job as PM is to write letters to our nuclear war submarines. I can image that the letters when their captains open them when the UK have been hit would be to 'Hope for Peace'. That's if the subs still exist. Corbyn does not want them, does not believe in the deterrent, and could put the money to something else. 

Would that be conventional weapons? I doubt it. He's not one for the armed forces. I can imagine the Labour Party under Corbyn to gradually run the armed forces down. It is such a different creature to the party of Clement Attlee.

I would be genuinely concerned.
