I agree with everything you've said.

However, the economy will be screwed and there won't be any money to pay for it and that's my biggest fear as he will drive it in to the ground fairly quickly as well.

Didn't know you had a Masters in Economics Thor. Brilliant analysis perhaps you could expand a bit and explain some of the jargon youse economists use. EG what does "screwed" mean in the economic context?

Max one of the big issues if Labour were to get in to power with Corbyn as PM, based on what has been leaked in to the mainstream press so far is the re-nationalisation of the power utilities for example, this will cause a massive outflow of foreign investment in our economy. Labour have indicated that they will look to renationalise several of the privatised industries such as Royal Mail, Railways etc. They have also suggested that the money paid will be at a lower rate than “market rate / valuation”

If that were to happen then it would be hard to attract inward investment as people would naturally be sceptical as the government of that day could at any time take control and pay at a lower rate than its worth. So as an investor it becomes a no go area for funds to be looking at and they will move their money to another place where it would be considered more secure.

Then we would see a knock on effect rippling through other areas as people start to second guess what’s next and the economy starts to tank and heads towards being “screwed”

Ah project fear with a smattering of Armageddon. Easiest thing to do to prevent this is to nationalise the financial institutions or introduce capital controls.

Besides Capital makes it's own decisions. If there is profit to be made from the post Brexit wreckage it won't flee.

Are there any advantages to nationalisation you are aware of and could explain.

What do you mean by massive outflow of foreign investment in our economy? I’ve not got a masters in economics so don’t know what you mean. Say Thames Water for example, if Jezza threatens to take them back into public ownership, are Macquaries going to up-sticks ant take all their water treatment plants and pipes and sh*t to Australia before we get our hands back on our asset?

I’d give up mate. People can’t handle any semblance of a sensible argument and you will just attract a lot of stupid comments from people who in reality don’t have a clue how things work.

So he internal splits within labour are opening further by the day.

Thornberry is replaced at PMQ’s today by Long Bailey. The suspicion being the undermining of the dear leader. What a shambles the Labour Party is becoming.
