The thing about this is many of us have been here before and we know the nature of the Labour Party. From the mild sabotage of Ed Miliband to the outright campaign of terror against Corbyn. The Labour Party is rotten and expecting someone who was part of that rot to fix it stretches credulity.

The real debate is how those in government will not impoverish pensioners when they seek to balance their budgets. A free market is what retired workers have known throughout their working lives. Pensioners have the right to choose how they live.
