What Ian Birrell apparently does not understand is
that the millions of us whom he thinks are being "conned" by Jeremy Corbyn
actually do not agree with the view that we currently have a "liberal economic
concensus that has dominated our nation with such success for decades" (It`s
amazing but true - Hammond deserves praise, 31/07/17). Does this "success"
include the thousands of food banks in the country, the millions working on
zero-hour contracts with little hope of prosperity, and the millions more living
in over-priced rental accommodation with no prospects for improvement, those who
have seen their "real wages" diminish, graduates with debts of £40,000 plus and
aspirations blocked by ever decreasing social mobility, the victims of an
unnecessary and callous austerity programme, schools and hospitals facing the
future with reduced funding, and so on?
Birrell`s unjustified scaremongering clearly
shows he needs to get out more!
