Corbyn & Cabinet in the Media

[Fez909]

New Labour was really a Tory Government. They gave the current government plenty of Tory policies to worsen. This incudes PFI, Academy schools and austerity.

PFI is an actual Tory policy (as in Conservative Party). Major brought it in.

Ian Austen MP is a special kind of anti Corbo shill, but him retweeting this snidey, weaselly dig on JC as his only response to #panampapers is just grotesque, especially when his own expenses fiddling is taken into account ( tho tbf, he's in no position to to discuss panama papers - see also v quiet Trissy Hunt / Chukka U / Danczuk / etc etc - many of them not touching it ) .

How much more of this sh*t will Corbyn take ?

Tax avoidance open goal for labour. Thankfully nobody near top of party could be accused of supporting Putin...

Yes, the Third Way turns out to be exactly the same as the First Way of (I presume) raw capitalism.

I haven't looked in this thread properly in the past, sorry if this isn't the sort of thing that's posted here.

Should Corbyn resign over this call?

Is that a Nick Ferrari quote or something?

 

[Vintage Paw]

It led to some amusing exchanges on twitter last night, and, briefly, the hashtag #TweetLikeLBC

Taxi for Corbyn!

desperate front page from the Daily Mail owned free-sheet Metro.

story includes the line that "Corbyn becomes the first top UK politician to be caught doing anything wrong since the scandal broke"

 

[NoXion]

Better late than never I would have thought.

 

[magneze]

That seems even more desperate considering that "Jeremy Corbyn Paid TOO MUCH In Tax Last Year":

Jeremy Corbyn admits failing to include state pension income on his hand-written tax return

telegraph goes with Corbyn not declaring his state pension properly...but paying tax on it

it contains this devastating fact

He did not declare the income he received from a lodger who stayed at the property with him last year, as this did not meet the threshold for declaration of £4,250, the Telegraph understands.

The swine

 

[magneze]

Funny how in the midst of this exact scandal the Labour party actually have exactly the right person at the helm.

This is unbelievably desperate:

According to official records Mr Corbyn has made £3million from the state as an MP in his pay and pensions over his time in Parliament.

Mr Corbyn has earned a total of £1.5million in pay as an MP and built up a gold-plated pension pot worth £1.6million, which will give him an income of around £50,000 a year in his retirement

Yep, he's a MILLIONAIRE apparently! Whoever taught Steven Swinford, Kate McCann & Laura Hughes journalism must be turning in their graves. They're a fucking laughing stock.

No shit, I'm saying that they are mercenaries, not journalists they don't care about journalistic integrity.

Happily I've never had to fill in a tax return (PAYE for the win ) but I've seen my self-employed brother's, and festivaldeb's, and fuck me the forms are complicated. I'd be amazed if plenty of people don't make mistakes pretty regularly. Corbyn in not completely abnormal shocker

More, he has n't got an accountant- the root of most creative tax minimisation.
probably needs one though, his life got a lot more complicated in the last year.

 

[Artaxerxes]

Jeremy Corbyn has given the perfect answer to David Cameron's attack on his "chaotic" tax return.

The Tory leader emptied both barrels at his rival today for filing his return a week late - and overdeclaring his income by accident.

He told MPs at Prime Minister's Questions: "I thought his tax return was a metaphor for Labour policy!

"It was late, it was chaotic, it was inaccurate, it was uncosted."

But with jeers ringing out across the House of Commons, Mr Corbyn hit back with a barb close to home for the Tory PM.

"I'm grateful for the Prime Minister for drawing attention to my own tax return," he said.

"There warts and all - the warts being my handwriting, the all being my generous donation to HMRC.

"I actually paid more tax than some companies owned by people that he might know quite well."

Bash, both barrels back at Cameron
