    And who exactly is business supposed to be successful 'for' other than its shareholders? The state? Fück that.
    Oh, I see. So the only people who will suffer are the shareholders?

    Good. **** them. I hope they starve to death.

    Well, no, not really. I would point you at how many people are employed by the financial services sector. How many mouths it feeds, how many mortgages it pays, how much disposable income it creates that is spent on goods and services that in turn employ, feed, clothe and house millions.

    That's who suffers. Everyone.

    Then we must all benefit, and we must all have a say.

    Hence Corbyn is right.

    Agreed.

    No. Simply that what is good for business is good for everyone.

    That is exactly what Corbyn is saying. It should be like that and he will make sure it is.

    So you agree with him....
