Jeremy Corbyn

Congratulations to Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party on their huge successes and election performance. Corbyn and the Labour Party are expected to form UK’s government soon.

UK news recently reported that charges are to be brought over the Hillsborough disaster. One lesson from the Hillsborough disaster is that there was a conspiracy to deceive and present a false narrative of events.

There were three terrorist* incidents during the general election campaign – at Westminster bridge, Manchester Arena and London Bridge. There are many indicators of a similar conspiracy to deceive and present a false narrative of events. It’s almost as if they were done on the cheap without much concern for credibility. For example, at Westminster Bridge we’re presented with images of a rectangle crossing the bridge.

Not one but three terrorist incidents during the election campaign and still the Tories couldn’t win. Then, there’s those terrorist sympathisers …

*Terrorist rather than fake terrorism, hoaxes or false-flag, etc since they satisfy the definition of terrorism whoever were the perpetrators.

It’s difficult to fault Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party

Spread the love

It’s difficult to fault Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party’s campaigning in the current UK general election. “For the many. Not the few”, the excessively rich to pay more in tax.

They’re saying it like it is – a rigged economy for the benefit of a tiny minority at the expense of the many, that the Conservative party is the party of the privileged elite.

Gambling on Jeremy Corbyn

I have gambled on UK politics and won big over the recent few years. Please check for yourselves: there have not been bets available on Jeremy Corbyn as next prime minister for months. The best odds currently is 9:1 with a maximum stake of £62.50.

Odds are very poor. Bookies would be offering upwards of 50:1 if the election was regarded as a foregone conclusion.

Hinkley Point C

Spread the love

Leader of the Opposition Jeremy Corbyn should be commended in opposing and Prime Minister Theresa May should be commended in showing caution and wisdom in the proposed Hinkley Point C nuclear power station. There are so many causes for concern in these proposals. Hinkley Point C should not proceed at any cost and there should be thorough, clear and sober assessment.

The proposed Hinkley Point C reactors (2 of them) are a new and unproven design of reactor, the European Pressurized Reactor (EPR). EPRs are a form of Pressurised Water Reactor.

The four EPRs already being built have all experienced construction problems and are all uncompleted, over-budget and delayed by years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPR_(nuclear_reactor)

Four EPR units are under construction. The first two, in Finland and France, are both facing costly construction delays (to at least 2018). Construction commenced on two Chinese units in 2009 and 2010.[1] The Chinese units were to start operation in 2014 and 2015,[2] but are now expected to come online in 2017.[3]

Olkiluoto 3 in Finland was scheduled to go online in 2009. It is currently expected to start operation in 2018. source It is hugely over-budget. source

Flamanville 3 in France was due to start operation in 2012. It is currently delayed until late 2018. source

These dates of 2018 should be regarded as optimistic spin likely to be superseded with later dates.

Flamanville‘s lid and base to the reactor vessel are flawed and below the required standard, weakened by excessive carbon content in the steel. There are suggestions that the French nuclear safety authority (ASN) may require that the vessel is replaced or even that the project is abandoned.
