Re: the corbyn vs smith debate

The post by Stray above was quite insightful with Peter Mandelson giving his views of the direction the Labour Party should take and commenting on the shortcomings of New Labour. They were able to create lots of wealth, but the trickle down effect is patent nonsense. Incidentally I was watching the Film The Divide (based on the book The Spirit Level) recently and there is a telling statement from Blair to the effect that there is nothing wrong with people wanting to be as rich as they desire. Mandelson actually approved of the direction Corbyn was taking the Labour Party with its anti austerity stance! (whilst questioning his ability to lead).
