JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: THE ATTACKS CONTINUE - CORBYN IS NOW A DREAMY-EYED STUDENT - POLITICIANS AND THE CHANCE OF DOING SOME GOOD


COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE GUARDIAN


“Students seem to be convinced that if they talk long enough, they can save the world for justice”

Even if your observation were correct, Clive James, that is preferable to the likes of David Cameron or Tony Blair who have no motivation to save anything but their own political and monetary fortunes.

Actually, the opportunity to do some genuine good - at home or abroad - comes fairly rarely to most politicians, and that is just a fact of harsh realities.

But when it does, a man like Corbyn will act upon it.

David Cameron will not. Tony Blair did not. They worked for special interests only.

And do you seriously think the world is a better place for either one of them?

Your argument is fatuous.
