Let Jeremy Corbyn praise killer Fidel Castro, British people are too sensible to let him anywhere near power

Corbyn and co praise Castro because he improved healthcare and education but it is genuinely frightening that they cannot see the horror of such a view

IT’S easy to mock Jeremy Corbyn’s refusal to utter a word of criticism of his hero,  Fidel Castro.

To the Labour leader, anyone who opposes the West is by definition an ally. And any ally who achieves power should be revered, no matter what they do with that power.

But although Corbyn’s tribute to  Castro yesterday was a caricature of what could be expected from the sort of bearded, sandal-wearing Leftie usually to be  found in obscure Trotskyite bookshops, laughter is the wrong response.

Castro was a dictator who murdered and imprisoned his opponents. He impoverished his country. And those who tried to escape were killed.

Jeremy Corbyn and fellow loony Lefties such as Ken Livingstone say that this needs to be put in context — and praise Castro because he improved healthcare and education.

It is genuinely frightening that they cannot see the horror of such a view.

Many Western governments have improved healthcare and education. They have not also felt the need to murder their opponents.

The gang now in charge of the official opposition think it perfectly normal to revere a sinister dictator.

Thank heavens the British people are too sensible to let them anywhere near power.


Remainer's court jester

MOST Remainers know they can’t openly say  they want to ignore the referendum result.

So instead they come up with various ingenious ways to achieve the same end without admitting it.

First it was the need for parliamentary scrutiny. What they really meant was tying Brexit up in all sorts of knots to delay things as long as possible.

Now Sir Keir Starmer, Labour’s Brexit spokesman, says he’s opposed to leaving the European Court of Justice.

On June 23, we voted to take back  control — to put an end to foreign judges being superior to Parliament and British courts. A key purpose of Brexit is to escape the clutches of the ECJ.

That’s non-negotiable.


Show and hell

YOU think you had a tough week?

Spare a thought for Totto Kohler and Elisabeth Andreassen.

The Norwegian tourists’ visit to the UK ended up costing them £11,000 after  two cancelled Rod Stewart gigs. Even their consolation trip to a West End musical was scuppered by a blackout.

Which made it hard to see the bright side.
