    After reading your comments I have decided that you are a fool. You are a Barnsley fan, you have some insight/connecions re: the club and it's good to get your perspective. Thank you for that. However, your posts regarding Labour/Corbyn are uneducated, misinformed, biased and flawed. You are therefore, as I say a fool because you do not use relevant facts to back up your arguments. You merely state things as you see them with limited evidence and then make your comments from that. As for your attitude to voting... you have your views about that as well but ultimately you have the right to vote or not to vote because people stood up to the perceived wisdom of the time and said we should all have a vote. Good for you you can make the choice. Regards

    Unfounded? You clearly are deluding yourself or as I previously said refusing to accept any possible other interpretation or transgressions that differs from your own view of JC. Then you accuse me of failing in my research to identify any valid information that supports a negative view of him: anti- Semitic or otherwise. Whilst the internet isn’t the oracle; it’s an effective starting point: comments from the Jewish Labour Movement (affiliated since 1920) I quote ‘a culture of anti- semitism has been allowed to emerge and fester ... since Mr Corbyn became leader’. You can use as much inference in that as you might deem fit with this - as it took me all of 5 seconds to find it. Whilst, again, I stress that people shouldn’t take at face value everything they read - there’s been enough (vast) information publicised (even by his own back benchers) to corroborate and support my own view. Now, if u are suggesting otherwise, clearly u need to look at all these sources rather than making blind judgements without offering any notions of the contrary! As for the armed forces - the same applies (all of which u clearly have read I’m supposing).

    It's fairly simple, really. The Lib Dems can't win. So you just have to ask yourself who is the biggest Jeremy Hunt: Boris or Jezza? No contest on that one, so Corbyn gets my vote, after much soul-searching.

    No problem, I post what I can get away with.

    I'll come back at you with that, I'm no fool. I come from a family who've never voted for anyone but labour, why? Because they, like you, refuse to look at any other party as you are blinded by your hatred of the Tories. I provided facts, but I'll again show you how this forum works...

    Corbyn called Hamas brothers. I was then asked to prove it, which I did. I then got told it wasn't enough proof as he only called the main Hamas guy a brother and not brothers.

    It's so blatant that you, and many others on this forum are blinded by hatred. However, the countries attitude is changing, you can see it happening big time in this town. You walk around Goli, Wombwell, Darfield, grimey etc etc and people are openly saying they will vote Tory because 1. They want brexit and 2. They hate Corbyn.

    Guess what? That's their God given right, and just because you, and it's not just you, choose to shout and call people names just because they're not daft enough to vote for a party just because their dad did doesn't mean that everyone else should do the same.

    Here's my reason not to vote Labour... John Healey is my local MP, the man is a disgrace. He went against his constituency on brexit, 3 times. He also referred to thurnscoe as "nothing but a wasteland". Party of the people? Aye oreyt.

    Then, Corbyn.


    Say no more.

    I wish there was a viable alternative too but looking at who will do the least damage to UK over the next 5 years between Boris and Jeremy and although it pains me to type it the answer is Jeremy

    Some folks from Barnsley are voting for Brexit because they think it will reduce immigration from India and Pakistan..... that is a monstrous level of stupidity

    It is stupid. The whole brexit thing is an embarasment, but the government should be ashamed for not getting it done. Corbyn is to blame on that front too, going against what the vast majority of labour voters voted for.

    Around 30% of Labour voters are believed to have voted to leave. Now i'm pretty **** at maths but I reckon that 70% must have therefore voted to remain. Hardly a vast majority is it? Perhaps you need to reevaluate your blame there...

    You blame JC but I blame Boris and the ERG. Let’s not forget that Boris was a huge Leave campaigner in the referendum and then buggered off as soon as the result came in because he didn’t have a clue what to do.....

    You can probably count them on one hand, come off it.. Could equally claim that loads voting against Brexit becuase they think we wont be allowed in the next Eurovision.

    That's not my experience mate. Loads voted leave for reasons that can at best be regarded as very doubtful or downright stupid. I take your point about Eurovision though, although I have never yet met anyone who voted remain for that reason.

    You do realise that it is reporting on an actual exchange that took place in the House of Commons and a real report that is (over)due to be released? It isn’t an article plucked out of thin air. You’re going to need a better defence for the government keeping us in the dark on such a serious matter than disliking the Guardian.

    Here it is from the BBC: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-50275383

    and even in the Daily Mail: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...-threat-UK-elections-says-Dominic-Grieve.html

    Just out of curiosity Goli did you participate in the burning of the effigy of Margaret Thatcher after her death in Goldthorpe.

    Can you show me where it says that? Alot of reports online say the figure is between 57 and 63% of labour voters voted leave.

    What is all this "I am/am not voting for Corbyn" stuff? Unless you live in Islington North, you are NOT voting for him, you are voting for your local party representative. Recent events have shown that just because you are the Prime Minister it doesn't mean that the entire country will be run to your liking/values. I haven't looked at the stats, but off the top of my head I can't remember any party in power losing so many votes in the commons as
    the current incumbent and his predecessor have. So, vote for the local representative that fit your needs, not the "leader" of the party.
