Hey, folks. Meet the economics 'genius' behind Jeremy Corbyn

Jeremy Corbyn is Michael Foot MKII, unelectable and stuck in a far left fantasy World that has long since vanished; a pity Dan Jarvis didn't run for the leadership.

What is it with the Labour party and it's desire to commit Hari Kari ?

I prefer that party committing Hari {Kari/Kiri} (I think you probably mean seppuku, but I'm not in a sufficiently pedantic mood to look it up), rather than murdering the economy. The problem I have with Corbyn is that his approach to economics is even more balmy than New Labour's.

New Labour had in my opinion at least a clear aim (IMHO self enrichment for as long as they could get away with it), but with Corbyn I'm left with a feeling that the UK would end up being the clear evidence of what happened when you apply failed economic theory. I don't think that's the right thing to do when the whole world is still recovering from a US crisis that New Labour helped to kickstart with jumping into a war and flogging anything they could lay their hands on, but maybe I'm just too picky.
