Corbyn to quit?

[McAz]

Imagine the Torygraph smearing Corbyn !!

Who'd have thunk it?

Anyway, nice to see that not all the forum's rabid righties are in hiding, post-NZ atrocity.

Hiding from what - the razor sharp debating skills of you and Aziz?

It's true though - Corbyn is thick, whichever newspaper reports it.

In truth, you have no idea. You have almost certainly never met him or conversed with him.

But strangely you are happy to take the word of a dodgy article in one of the most anti-Corbyn rags around. You must have your reasons.

You can start good fires with the paper edition.

What difference does it make whether I've met him or not?

It's factual that he only managed two Es at A level and is a polytechnic drop-out. Are you denying this is true based on the fact that I haven't met him?

There's no way of proving he's never read a book though, we will just have to take the word of those who actually know him.

So the country is in a crisis
May invites representations from all parties to seek a way forward
Corbyn walks in - sees Chukka spits the dummy and storms out

What a great statesman he is

There are plenty of people who failed at school, matured later and turned out just fine.

I know no different of Corbyn, except that during debates he argues his case with an articulate and knowledgeable manner. He demonstrated that perfectly during the last GE.

Yes, but not as Prime Ministers.

Do you think a polytechnic drop-out who's never read a book, a viable candidate for number 10?

Good for him.

TIG is not a political party - wtf are they doing in such meetings meant for party leaders ?

Anyway, “We were just going round in circles, very courteously and friendly but no change, Sir Vince said". Sounds like there wasn't anything missed then. That's all May has done fr 3 years.

People said the same about the likes of Richard Branson, another complete failure at school who coincidentally was feted as a future PM by many, a few years back.

Corbyn lives and breathes politics. And that's what the job is all about.

Major left school just before his 16th birthday in 1959 with three O-levels in History, English Language and English Literature. He later gained three more O-levels by correspondence course, in the British Constitution, Mathematics and Economics.[8]

Yup.

Certain Trumpisms there. Another thicko who reached the top...

This nice chap nearly got the top job too...

Ian Duncan Smith was educated at Bishop Glancey Secondary Modern, Solihull, until the age of 14, then until he was 18 at HMS Conway, a Merchant Navy training school on the Isle of Anglesey.

Duncan Smith's office stated that he had in fact attended the Università per Stranieri, in Perugia, for a year.He did not complete his course of study, sit exams, or gain any qualifications there.

Duncan Smith's biography, on the Conservative Party website, also stated that he was "educated at Dunchurch College of Management" but his office later confirmed that he did not gain any qualifications there either !

IDS isn't in the running for PM though.

Well done on comparing Corbyn to 'complete failures' and 'thickos' though .

There is hope for you yet.

Failures ?

Surely not - unless you consider POTUS, mega-successful businessman and leader of the Tory party as 3 individuals who 'failed' . It simply proves that school qualifications aren't always the B-all and End-all of achievement in life.
