I've ever heard from people, for years, is:
"bloody bankers and their bonuses"
"bloody rich and Here's what I'm really struggling to understand.
Allnd their offshore tax havens "
"bloody politicians with their lying and second homes"
“bloody corporations paying less tax than me”
"bloody Establishment, they're all in it together”
“it'll never change, there's no point in voting”
"bloody rich and Here's what I'm really struggling to understand.

"bloody politicians with their lying and second homes"
“bloody corporations paying less tax than me”
"bloody Establishment, they're all in it together”
“it'll never change, there's no point in voting”
And quite rightly so, I said all the same things.
But then someone comes along that's different.
He upsets the bankers and the rich.
The Tory politicians hate him along with most of the labour politicians.
The corporations throw more money at the politicians to keep him quiet.
And the Establishment is visibly shaken.
I've never seen the Establishment so genuinely scared of a single person.
So the media arm of the establishment gets involved.
Theresa phones Rupert asking what he can do,
and he tells her to keep her mouth shut, don't do the live debate,
he'll sort this out. So the media goes into overdrive with:

“she's strong and stable”
“he's a clown”
“he's not a leader”
“look he can't even control his own party”
“he'll ruin the economy”
“how's he gonna pay for it all?!”
“AND he's a terrorist sympathiser, burn him, burn the terrorist sympathiser”
“he's a clown”
“he's not a leader”
“look he can't even control his own party”
“he'll ruin the economy”
“how's he gonna pay for it all?!”
“AND he's a terrorist sympathiser, burn him, burn the terrorist sympathiser”
And what do we? We've waited forever for an honest politician
to come along but instead of getting behind him we bow to the establishment
like good little workers. They whistle and we do a little dance for them.
We run around like hypnotised robots repeating headlines we've read,
all nodding and agreeing.
Feeling really proud of ourselves because we
think we've came up with our very own first political opinion.
But we haven't, we haven't came up with anything.
This is how you tell. No matter where someone lives in the country,
they're repeating the same headlines, word for word.
From Cornwall to Newcastle people are saying:

From Cornwall to Newcastle people are saying:
“he's a clown”
“he’s a threat to the country”
“she's strong and stable”
“he'll take us back to the 70s”
“he’s a threat to the country”
“she's strong and stable”
“he'll take us back to the 70s”
And there's nothing else, there's no further opinion
There's no evidence apart from 1 radio 5 interview
that isn't even concrete evidence,
he actually condemns the violence of both sides in the interview.
There's no data or studies or official reports to back anything up.
Try and think really hard why you think he's a clown,
other than the fact he looks like a geography teacher.
(no offence geography teachers) because he hasn't done
anything clownish from what I've seen.
And you're not on this planet if you think the establishment and the media
aren't all in it together.

You think Richard Branson, who's quietly winning NHS contracts,
wants Corbyn in?
You think Rupert Murdoch, who's currently trying to widen his media
monopoly by buying sky outright, wants Jeremy in?
You think the Barclay brothers, with their offshore residencies, want him in?
You think Philip Green, who stole all the pensions from BHS workers
and claims his wife owns Top Shop because she lives in Monaco,
wants Corbyn in?
You think the politicians, both Labour and Tory,
with their second homes and alcohol paid for by us, want him in?
You think Starbucks, paying near zero tax, wants him in?
You think bankers, with their multi million pound bonuses, want him in?
wants Corbyn in?

And do you think they don't have contact with May? Or with the media?
You honestly think that these millionaires and billionaires are the sort of
people that go “ah well, easy come easy go, it was nice while it lasted”??
I wouldn't be if my personal fortune was at risk, I'd be straight on the phone
to Theresa May or Rupert Murdoch demanding this gets sorted immediately.

Because here's a man, a politician that doesn't lie - he can't lie -
he could have said whatever would get him votes anytime he wanted
but he hasn't. He lives in a normal house like us and uses the bus just like us.
He's fought for justice and peace for nearly 40 years.
He has no career ambitions. And his seat is untouchable.
That's one of the greatest testimonies. No one comes close to removing him
from his constituency, election after election.

His Manifesto is fully costed. It all adds up, yes there's some borrowing
but that's just to renationalise the railway, you know we already subsidise
them and they make profit yeah? One more time…
WE subsidise the railway companies and they walk away with a profit,
just try and grasp the level of piss taking going on there.

Unlike the Tory manifesto with a £9 billion hole,
their figures don't even add up.And it benefits all of us, young, old, working,
disabled, everyone. The only people it hurts are the establishment, the rich,
the bankers, the top 5% highest earners.

Good, screw them. It's long overdue.
