Asked whether “the world is controlled by a secretive elite”, 28 per cent of Mr Corbyn’s supporters strongly agreed. Just 13 per cent of the overall population said the same.
Wonder what portion think it’s the neoliberals who control everything and those who flat oit say it’s the Joos?
According to polls reported by Guido:
The lack of numeracy is the biggest problem, there’s no wonder Murph and is ilk get away with their crap.
Sod the neo-Marxist whackos, that 13% is scary.
Don’t most of them think the neoliberals and the Joos are synonymous?
Same poll stated that the Corbynists’ main source of news was social media.
Presumably because mainstream news is controlled by the jews/neoliberals/lizards/Murdoch/etc.
Joos, neoliberals and neoliberal joos: could anyone do us a venn diagram to illustrate this?
In related news, in an article on today’s Times, Corbyn is advocating a “massive growth in campaigning politics.” Lefties always seem to use the word “massive”. Could it be that “massive” change is required to fulfill their aims because so few people agree with them in the first place?
Well, the world is controlled by an elite. They’re just not very secretive about it. Corbyn and his ilk have never had a problem with that. They’re just angry it’s not them. The Vanguard of the Proletariat has always been a pretty select club.
You can’t trust those figures. The poll was rigged by Mossad.

Is it just a circle?
He’s not quite got the nutter vote sewn up yet. No sign of him so far on Infowars/Prison Planet. Has David Icke endorsed him yet?
Don’t forget the squirrels. Those little fuckers have their tiny paws in every evil plan going.
@GlenDorran
Monbiot has got them on the run, however. Who would have guessed?
I’m not sure what’s been more mental on Newsnight this week: Monbiot’s cookery class or Ann Pettifor explaining why renationalising industry isn’t renationalising industry.
What happened to the Illuminati? Have they been overthrown or just rebranded?

“Sod the neo-Marxist whackos, that 13% is scary.”
Had this a few days ago, with someone I’d presumed rational & marginally educated.
“Immensely rich pharmacos are yadda, yadda, yadda…”
“Great! Then I must be immensely rich. I’ve shares in Glaxo”
So then we got onto how all the immensely rich people keep all their dosh in pound notes under their incredibly thick mattresses.
Or I think they must. On the basis of what was being claimed.
Gave up about then.
The only surprise for me is it’s only 13%
Under the mattress? I though they all had money filled swimming pools like Scrooge mcduck
Only slightly off topic, the Economist has an article on Corbynomics which isn’t wholly dismissive, except for PQE:
I remember talking to someone who seemed perfectly respectable and lucid, no ‘trigger warnings’ of nuttiness – yet he turned out to be a Truther, a 100% acolyte. Scary times.
France’s Coppola is always worth reading. Ritchie will be spitting feathers about this one:
