At last this man has said something sensible.

Really?

Corbyn, the guy that praised Fidel Castro as a 'champion for social justice',

yet criticises Trump of:
"dangerous and inhumane policies" were "putting the lives and wellbeing of millions of people at risk", Mr Corbyn said.

Talk about double standards

In any case, stopping Trump from coming to the UK would have what impact on US domestic policy? The UK cant help who the US choose for their president all we can do is wait for them to come to their senses.

He was referring to Fidel's influence on ending apartheid in South Africa.

More disingenuous misrepresentations from eeyore.
It is what he does. It is what he is.

Fortunately Mr Corbyn did not praise Hugo Chavez for his particular brand of just and peaceful Socialism in Venezuela. That would have made him appear to be a bit silly, wouldn't it?

Incorrect.

The sentence has a separator, 'and'

“For all his flaws, Castro’s support for Angola played a crucial role in bringing an end to Apartheid in South Africa, and he will be remembered both as an internationalist and a champion of social justice.”

There must be an election coming up. Notch has started getting the memos again.

No, thats true. He went much further

In short: in spite of the absolute dog’s breakfast it has made of running a country bursting with natural wealth, the regime of Nicolás Maduro has still has a few close political allies in the West.

Who, we ask, might those be?

Step forward, the current leader of our beloved party (not to mention one Diane Abbott, who enjoyed a Caribbean trip as an “impartial” observer at the 2012 election, an election which itself raised big questions about freeness and fairness).

These people see the Venezuelan regime as a shining example of democratic socialism, and are active campaigners on its behalf through its “useful idiots” support organisation in the UK, the Venezuela Solidarity Campaign (also, for the record, supported by TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady, ironic when you consider the regime’s record on rights for trade unions). Any failure by the regime, of course, is conveniently attributed to the shadowy forces of its enemies, such as the United States or Britain

3. Pressure the left
Reach out to Jeremy Corbyn, Ken Livingstone and other politicians who have expressed support for Chávez and Maduro in the past. Put pressure on them to do the right thing and demand that the Venezuelan government respect human rights and democracy. Their voices might still carry some weight in Caracas

Yep, Notch will be obediently turning out his template anti-Corbyn posts until Central Office stop sending him orders.
