POLL: Was John McDonnell right to reject George Osborne’s fiscal charter?

Left Foot Forward

Have your say

 

First the shadow chancellor John McDonnell said the Labour Party would vote in favour of chancellor George Osborne’s so-called fiscal charter (the charter would legally prevent governments from spending more than they bring in in tax revenue when the economy is growing). And then, yesterday, McDonnell appeared to do a complete U-turn. Labour will now oppose Osborne’s charter.

And so our question to you is: should this have been Labour’s position all along? Is Labour right to oppose the chancellor’s fiscal charter?

    It’s idiots like you that we have to thank for the last two GE massacres and 10 years of Tory Scum. When will the ignorant under-educated Blairite/Tories learn ?

    And – if you’re referring to mainstream Labour – won us 3 with big majoritities, We’re now heading back to the 80s with hard left maniacs trying to take over local CLPs and Making Labour unelectable.

    Stop lying. Only about 50% of real party members voted for Corbyn.

    So you’re actually daft enough to believe that people switched to the Tories because they really wanted J Corbyn? Or maybe you think there’s an army of non voters who’ve been staying at home because there’s been no one left wing enough to vote for?
