He's very good at it, it's almost like he's not trying He's a feckin amateur compared to Dim Dianne she is naturally as thick as a whale omelette despite her education. It's Boris's background and breeding that gets you going isn't it? You just love a bit of cap doffing and knowing your place don't you?

None of them are electable, they're either PR obsessed narcissists or virtue signalling prigs, i'm loathe to vote for any of them, if it wasn't for Brexit i'd be no where near a voting booth on the 8th, as it is i'm going to have to peg my nose, don a hazmat suit and do the unthinkable.

I said hello to a very charming Michael Foot outside the Victoria Ground. Stoke were playing Argyle in early 1990, and we had a nice but brief chat about footie.

Michael foot played a big part in the removal of Neville Chamberlain as PM, so some respect for that. He was twice the politician that JC is.
Hopefully Thursday will prove that neither are electable.

Corbyn has led a very clever and manipulative campaign. By promising to abolish university tuition fees he has at a stroke probably increased his popularity enormously. Also other give aways such as free school dinners for primary kids, free child care have all attracted the popularist votes. He has also manipulated recent media by showing massive support and cheering crowds at his political rallies. Of course these have all been in labour heartlands where you would be hard pushed to find even a dead Tory supporter. But the effect on TV was there for the uninformed to see. However his Achilles heel will be his spending that doesn't add up, his reluctance to support the use of trident regardless of his party's policy and his shadow Home Secretary.

Another thing about Corbyn is I can't quite work him out. Sometimes he appears quite affable and witty, but when pushed on a question he seems to get irritable.
Then I think back to a documentary I saw on Dennis Healy and how Jeremy and Tony Benn had stuck the knife into Healy(I forget the details, but that was the gist). I always thought Dennis was decent and I didn't like that.
I am not as categorical on Jezza as some I have seen. Mandelson, Campbell, McDonnell and Blair are more obvious shits, for instance.
There is, however a certain sneakiness about him that I detect. I just have a bad feeling about him in my bones.
