As for Bernie, I completely agree with you. His influence will be huge. He has helped normalize the word "socialism", his young army is poised to take over the Democratic Party just in time for the 2020 election. And Bernie has also made it clear that he has no intention of retiring, so all is good....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-39770911417019026852016-08-02T19:17:04.856-04:002016-08-02T19:17:04.856-04:00Hi Pamela....thank you, and yes please keep a clos...Hi Pamela....thank you, and yes please keep a close eye on Kenney. I fear that in his present desperate state he's capable of anything. I would monitor him myself but he blocked me long ago, for what I have no idea.

You should try to take a trip up north,. It's not as glamorous or exciting as Edinburgh, but it is really beautiful, there is a lot of rebel history, and of course all the best men come from there. ;) Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-90740761810296044692016-08-02T18:57:02.364-04:002016-08-02T18:57:02.364-04:00Hi anon....you don't need a study to demonstra...Hi anon....you don't need a study to demonstrate how badly the media is treating Jeremy Corbyn. Even the Guardian has turned itself into a propaganda machine grinding out one arrack after the other against him. I have never seen anything like it. But the good news is that both Jeremy and Bernie are supported by armies of young people, and they will determine our future not the media. The elite can scream all it wants, but time is not on its side, and nothing will hold back the revolution this world needs if it's going to survive....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-18507589404260760032016-08-02T18:50:45.359-04:002016-08-02T18:50:45.359-04:00HI Lorne....thank you I certainly intend to.

They called it in their report an extreme systemic bias. It IS the same old battle, isn't it - rich against poor, landlords against serfs, elite against peasants. They are heroes, people like Bernie and Jeremy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-13326770792451771612016-07-31T08:36:00.889-04:002016-07-31T08:36:00.889-04:00Have a great holiday, Simon!
