[QUOTE=David29;50934855]Well, yes. I think that is a reasonable thing to do when a party leader is caught red handed telling a lie.[/QUOTE] No how dare you criticise the dear leader, he is perfect and uncorruptable.
Added video to the OP showing Corbyn sitting down in a seat on the train. Hard to dispute
They were shooting a piece, why would they go to a packed train to take up extra space and film? It's not like he's just making up the issue, trains do get pretty packed.
"The operator told Press Association that two passengers were moved from standard to first class so that Mr Corbyn could sit next to his aide." bit weird that they didn't mention that part [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-37167700[/url]

[QUOTE=Bobie;50936104]just saw someone on facebook call corbyn a blairite. is there really no such thing as a competent left in the UK?[/QUOTE] For the time being it really does seem that the centre left is devoid of talent sadly.
I'm sorry, but this is a corrupt as shit organisation trying to keep up appearances. Jeremy Corbyn is directly attacking their interests, so of course they are going to try and smear him. Anybody who has been on a Virgin train to Newcastle know they are charging 400% of the prices a few ago and sitting on the floor is a very common occurrence. Virgin are an awful, awful corporation and should be ashamed.
