      DukeOfWellington Tom Watson is running for deputy leader and is also being supported by unison and most of the major unions as he is well linked to the trade unions, from what i have seen he is very much a front runner.
      I actually changed my mind since my original comments and instead voted for Stella Creasy for deputy because frankly i think with her on the front lines against the tories she would be able to get young women in the ballot box voting labour, shes pretty good in front of a camera and has a talent for the zingers

    "What is ambition? Is it to control things or to change things?" - Jeremy Corbyn.
    I think 'managing' would be a better word than 'controlling'. Jeremy wants to have a go at changing the existing system rather than just managing it. Yvette Cooper asks Jeremy if he wants to be Prime Minister. He says yes but is not really convincing. He sees his mission as being to shift the party and the national debate. And yet all the candidates Jeremy is actually the only one with a chance of winning the 2020 General Election (or, more realistically, getting enough seats so that he can form a coalition with the SNP and LibDems) but he knows that it's more important to shift people's consciousness than to win and govern with no clear direction. He is the signpost that Mhairi Black was asking for in her maiden speech and should he win the Labour leadership he would form a very effective alliance of opposition with the SNP. His only problem would be the right wing of his own party. Erm, why am I suddenly thinking of Game of Thrones and Jon Snow bringing the Wildlings across the Wall?

      Gavin Sealey What is the old saying, Gavin?" He who feels unfit to wear the crown is best placed to handle it." Please forgive my terrible paraphrasing. But, you are right. Your assessment is bang on in my eyes. Corbyn feels it is better to loose on principle than to win with someone else's identity and beliefs. Opposition can influence and interfere in Government. Look at the SNP recently. They almost single handedly prevented the Tories from reintroducing hunting. This Government has a majority of twelve in the house. A powerful opposition can influence policy and decision making almost as entirely as a pressed, small majority.

    About the employment thing:
    Whenever unemployment comes down, even if only very slightly, it sounds like really good news.
    It's great that productive forces in the economy are growing, and that there'll be a little bit more money in people's pockets.
    But if one gets a little more ambitious about human potential, then the picture starts to become darker than governments make out.
    Unemployment, generally means being out of work. But let's coin a new word: Misemployment.
    It means being in work, but of a kind that fails to tackle with any sincerity the true needs of other people, merely exciting them to unsatisfactory pleasures and desires instead the way Primark, Patek Philippe, or YouPorn might. An employee of these businesses is Misemployed.
    Similarly, A man who is employed by a casino in Las Vegas to hand out flyers in order to tempt them to go inside and use slot machines is clearly employed in the technical sense and is marked as being off the unemployment registers. He's paid a wage in return for helping to solve a small part of the puzzle of the human condition that is of interest to his employers: that not enough tourists might otherwise leave the blue skies and heat of the main street to enter the air-conditioned halls of an Egyptian-themed casino. The man is clearly employed, but he is also dramatically, in truth, misemployed. His labour is generating capital, but it's making no contribution to human welfare and flourishing.
    He is joined in the ranks of misemployment by the people who make cigarettes, addictive but sterile television shows (such as soaps), badly designed buildings, ill fitting and shoddy clothes, deceptive advertisements, artery-clogging biscuits and highly sugared drinks.
    The rate of misemployment in modern economies is very high. While we may be genuinely grateful of the job we're given, we are all in the back of our minds, as employees, hoping for something else: that our work can contribute, in some way, to the common good, that we can make a modest difference. Governments have, with some success, learning techniques to reduce the rate of overall unemployment. In the language of the field, they do this by 'stimulating demand'.
    Though technically effective, this method fails to draw any distinction between good and bad demand and, therefore, between employment and misemployment.
    The real trick to bringing down misemployment isn't just to stimulate demand per se, but to stimulate the right sort of demand. To invite people to buy the ingredients of true satisfaction, to want the things that really matter, and therefore give individuals and business a chance to direct their labour, and make profits in meaningful areas of the economy. Employment figures aren't irrelevant, they matter a great deal: they're the first things to be attended to.
    But these figures mask a more ambitious index that we should get around to building in the future. One that measures misemployment and, hence, shows how intelligently and responsibly we're deploying human capital. Or rather: how we're using up people's lives.

    • @mycroftwells3804
      @mycroftwells3804 9 лет назад +6

      ***** I think that, ultimately, the solution is to make education free. When we remove the price tag from education, we make it more accessible. We are free to return to university to retrain, or to study whatever it was that interested us as we grew up.
      A lot of people wanted to be something other than they are, but the idea of the cost of re-education is an obstacle many cannot overcome and, so, they end up in places like McDonalds.
      But what about the economic burden of free education? In actual fact, surprisingly, an economy is boosted when education is free. Unemployment goes down - and could disappear completely - when everyone is able to do what they really desire, rather than whatever circumstance dictates they should do to survive. Creativity and Industry go up, more money goes into the economy as a result and everyone is able to live a higher standard of life.
      And it's becoming ever more important that we look at how to deal and eliminate misemployment because the age of automation is almost upon us and, as it stands, that simply means people will be displaced, and that unemployment and poverty will increase as 'misemployment' positions are gradually automated.

    • @deafected
      @deafected 9 лет назад +2

      Mycroft Wells That's an interesting point and very close to the truth. Speaking honestly that is exactly how things are for me. My story is I completed my Masters degree in the field of computing, I specialised in a wide variety of internal subjects (as well as gaining external certifications) to make myself as employable as possible. When I graduated I worked as a back end coder for well known e-commerce site's. I know around the year 2012 (possibly the market crash? cuts in public sector jobs?) something changed enormously in the job market. Despite my experience I could not get a job even remotely in my field. I then worked as an outside contractor which sustained me for awhile, but then that became difficult too.
      I was left jobless for 4 months (it was sheer hell), and anyone who has been through that knows how it effects confidence. I gave up looking for a job in my field and got a job with Primark, it certainly paid the bills and if anything made me realise how many people were in the same desperate situation to me and did exactly the same thing. Perfectly intelligent graduates who are trying to get into industries that are over flowing and closing the door. I am now back in my preferred sector and it took me quite a long time to find a company to allow me that chance again.
      My point of view is that we are very ill equipped to deal with the routes young people choose to take in employment. Misemployment certainly pays the bills but it is dangerous too, but as I found out, it's almost near impossible to return to a sector which you needed to abandon for awhile for the sake of financial stability. I would like future governments to work closer with education institutes and look to supply the demand of graduates through public sector business initiatives. I do think the government neglects the intellectual wealth our country has and instead resorted to a system of simply supplying the demand what private companies deem necessary. To fit the metaphor; square pegs in round holes.

    He doesn't seem to understand basic economics. You can't just increase the minimum wage and expect nothing to change. It's all about supply and demand. Increasing the minimum wage will mean there needs to be either more demand for workers in an economy or less supply of labour to reach an equilibrium on the price mechanism. More tax on corporations, raising the top rate of income tax and pro-union rhetoric means less investment from transnational enterprises, so less demand for labour. Point being the supply of labour will shrink and there'll be more unemployment.

      Jake Wrightson Also those countries are western countries that are sparsely populate with rich natural resources. In addition, the demand for labour created by these natural resources and other factors leads to the supply of labour being unable to meet the demand, therefore wages are higher to attract more people into these positions and skilled immigrants are needed to fill the gaps.

He has a clean conscious and a pounding healthy heart. That is all it takes my friends. And hopefully, 5 years being leader of the opposition.

Compare this to other Labour politicians who are often put into positions of importance, with little or no knowledge of their subject. We should all support anyone who is genuine and decent, whichever party they are in. I hope it will be the end of right/left politics and the good people get together. That was created to divide people.

    He was asked "What qualifies him to be Prime Minister?" Well, the answer that question will be the number of people that will vote for him. If the British people don't want him, they wont vote for him. I believe that the British people will vote for him.

    Labour is a party that has always stood for helping those who aren't well off, never have I doubted the sincerity of the intentions of people who support labour. But, this approach has an inherent problem within which is it takes responsibility away from people, it implies that the situations people find themselves in, financial or otherwise (on a large scale), are not the result of how they have chosen to live their lives. It's this sort of thinking that has led to a general mindset of entitlement about people, like somehow it is the governments responsibility to ensure they have high living standards, rather than there own. I reject the notion of collectivist thinking, though I admire Corbyn' sticking to his values.

    Once again, with the benefit of hindsight, if the other three candidates had been delivering a cohesive message, thus representing what their 'constituents' felt, they would have received the requisite number of votes! They didn't, and Mr Corbyn DID, that's 'democracy' in action, a concept that the other three would do well to relearn!

    Labour was for the safety and protection of barely paid workers from the abuses of profiteering business people, who would cut all safety corners,see recent explosions in China, for inhuman profits. All the worst excesses of the Industrial revolution have been swept away from public view in our path to "glory". Labour died when disaffected middle class teenagers, who always had the protection of their parent's wealth, decided they would be naughty and cool and vote against their parents and for Labour. They then transformed it into the same self serving crock that is the Conservatives and other parties. Politics is not about policies and the population, but about the careers paths of politicians and those who vote for them. The working classes who are working for a pittance and a revolving door of cheap and happy to do anything for a buck workers from this country and others, have long since given up voting because of this charade. Blair was the devil incarnate as was his cronies. They all lied to keep their jobs no one lifted a finger against his megalomania and the same applies to Cameron

    People keep trying to say JC's splitting Labour - yet it was Blair who moved away from the origins of Labour and put the party in a direction that these guys are trying so desperately to keep on track. JC's support is the roots, the origins and marginalised. Those electorates lost to protest votes to nationalism and sick of politicians corrupt and useless to them, people like Blair, Fox, Campbell and the mass of Tories looking sell the state and the peoples assets to the highest bidder.
    They keep trying like the Tories to focus on the person, not the policy - probably because JC's policy is something they don't want to give air time or argue. Maybe the cant argue! Where is the politics there!!? Where is our political system??!
    JC offers a vehicle to allow people to regain politics. He articulates an alternative from the Institution and expresses an idea of the UK that is based on equality, the electorate and a progressive, intellectual attitude than brings some dignity and quality into OUR, the peoples, UK political system.
    Today I watch that prick Cameron say he wanted ALL schools in the UK to be an Academy. Free, privatized schools. Two weeks ago Osbourne sold the banks at cut cost to those that ruined them and cost the UK billions. I've watched for the last six years as cuts after cuts after cuts after cuts have stripped the state of its infrastructure, food banks grow, pay packets shrink, money go less far, youth unemployment rise, quality of life drop, social mobility freeze and malcontent grow. This, whilst the current leaders reward the super rich, pander to the elites, take from those with less and give to those with more.
    Corbyn, the better you do, the better WE do. You are the only voice for the real people that MAKE the UK.
    'They' might not be listening, but WE are. And WE are the ones that count.

    He's going to apologise for the 2003 intervention in Iraq, which will temporarily give the extreme-left a warm, fuzzy feeling inside their delicate, little hearts because they believe that the state of the Iraqi economy is much more important than human survival. It will also embolden the Jihadi militants whom will see the 2003 intervention as a victory. The only major thing he shares in common with those Islamists is the idea that human survival is less important than other things. One prefers a healthy economy, the other values political victory.

    From a laymans perspective i've looked into Friedrich Hayeks thoughts and Michael Alberts (participatory economics) . They both seem to have many good points but I'm not convinced either.. Maybe what Yvette saying is that Labour needs to target the middle ground. As human beings, globally I think we are heading in the direction of extinction. We need major change in many areas or we and the planet are in big trouble . I have no idea if the whole climate change thing but we all know pollution, extraction of resources, business 'externalities' , general division and distrust amongst peoples is causing a crush of tectonic plates in a major way.
