I'm sure that just like her party leadership, she's far more comfortable with terrorists, Islamists, Stalinists, and anti-Semites.

How righteous of you. Doesn't change the fact that Labour have be hijacked by extremists though. And to think they make such a fuss about Ukip! Even the BNP would struggle to compare with the type of filth the Labour leadership mixes with.

Well, obviously anyone who doesn't go along with the new revisionist history of Corbyn and his chancellor must be paid not to do so, right?

That's hardly surprising. The Labour leadership itself will mix with terrorists, Stalinists, Iranian apologists, anti-Semites, but never its moderate opposition. It evidence of how extremist the party has become.

You mean totally ignore the fact that the Labour party that I once supported has been hijacked by the hard left? No. I don't. It is enough for me to hear her hatred of her moderate political opponents while supporting the Corbyn and McDonnell leadership to know that she is a hypocritical liar.

Blame that on the economic catastrophe left by the Labour government.

'Prior to that' meaning before the economic catastrophe that happened under Labour. You can, and no doubt will, claim that it wasn't Labours fault. But it is the tories that are left to clean up the mess. And it is a mess. We currently spend more on debt interest repayments than we do on the housing and environment budget combined. That equates to a little under one third the entire NHS budget. That vast wasted amount has gone down under the tories. Because they recognise that debt has a price. And the problem needs to be sorted. Not ignored and made worse. Because if the country goes bust, it doesn't matter how loudly you signal your virtue, or how much face paint you wear or how hard you wave your anti-racism banners around, or even how many windows you break, we'll all be screwed.

Popularism doesn't justify extremism. Anyone with a basic grasp of history learns as much. Publicizing your hatred for your moderate political opponents, while supporting the present Labour leadership makes you hypocritical. And all hypocrites must lie.

Let me ask you a question. Have the BNP leadership ever advocated terrorism? Have the BNP leadership ever supported political violence against their opposition? Have the BNP leadership ever been sentenced for acts of terrorism? The answer is no. But we don't need to wait for any of that happen to recognise what they truly are. It's stretching plausible deniability to say that, with both Corbyn's and McDonnell's history, they are not political extremists. Judging them by their past actions, that is exactly what they are. After all, if you can judge a man by the company he keeps, what does that say about the present Labour leadership? Hatred of your (moderate) political opponents is a sign of extremism. If Laura Pidcock was a better person, she wouldn't go there. I don't believe it is a coincidence that, while loudly signalling the virtues of tolerance and respect, Corbyn encourages, and has always encouraged, the exact opposite. It doesn't matter to me how popular Corbyn is, I'm not willing to go along with revisionism just for the sake of the party. I don't believe that voting for him is an automatic ticket to communist dictatorship. But then I don't believe that voting Trump results in fascism. I do believe, however, in the slippery slope theory. And the idea that if you justify political violence, others will follow your lead.
