[QUOTE=Shadow801;48697302]Eh, I don't care if he does not like the monarchy, it is at the end of the day a British thing and some traditions are nice to keep and maintain.
He should just buck up and deal with it.[/QUOTE]
He's supposed to be for working people instead of the 'elite', so to say. So kneeling in front of the queen goes right against his principles. I think it's fair to say that kneeling before any unelected authority (due to Divine Right) 'just because' is not really a very nice tradition at least in the 21st century.

Best bit was stolen

"I sent it to Team Corbyn as I have sent it to each and every Labour leader before him. I am very proud of that passage. I had no idea they were going to use it until today, but I am delighted that they have. It is a very fine passage. I sent it by post two weeks ago, to the leader of the opposition’s office.
I offered it to him as Labour leader, because I felt it was a passage applicable to anyone with the values of the Labour party. I also published it on my website, probably about four years ago. It may look like they took it from there but that isn’t the case and to say it was stolen or plagiarised is nonsense."
He had to [url=https://youtu.be/1-o165fbX_E?t=22m24s]tell John McDonnell to wave[/url] after his Shadow Chancellor speech :v: Don't think he was quite expecting so much applause.
