Jeremy Corbyn's favourite biscuit

Smiless , nothing to dunk, oh now I miss ginger nuts

The man lacks certain social graces/manners.

Can you really imagine him in a key role, conversing with world leaders?

My homemade ginger biscuits are pretty good too. Also endorsed by my professional cook friend ?
Good dunked too.

Oh, does that mean you never dunk Anniebach?

Wait for it, I don't eat biscuits , not anti sugar , anti wheat

I don't dunk ginger nuts, just the choc digestives; might give the ginger nuts a go. I'm not miserable all of the time just don't smile as much as I used too (always smile when dunking though).

No, I think you put that very well gillybob; "a vision of a crazy professor type sitting in a brothel" never crossed my mind, until you mentioned it of course.

Well said Ramblingrose I agree with all your post

Trisher Having an allotment and being anti sugar dies not equal healthy eating.

Many eat healthily without having an allotment , and I know an alcholic who has an allotment, no one can say he is anti sugar , he drinks cider

I could have probably put that better, but you know what I mean.

just in case anyone had a vision of a crazy professor type sitting in a brothel

Do you have the recipe for those please thatbags I love nutty, seedy things.

It's easy to fire up young people with simplistic idealism. Weren't we all idealists when we were young and naive?

Fave bisc: my own homemade nutty seedy flapjack. Can't be beaten. Don't care what it says about me, my professional cook friend and my son-out-law think it's the best. That's good enough for me.

I love ginger snaps too Smileless2012 Even I smile sometimes, and I'm a miserable cow

I did once dye my hair ginger (and it went very red) so that could be the connection. I love leaving them in my tea and then sucking the lovely gingery tea out.

I like plain chocolate digestives (especially when dunked) jammy dodgers and ginger snaps gillybob. Don't know what that says about me and if anyone thinks they know, please don't tell me (unless it's complementary of course ).

Healthy eating Anniebach

Sorry - meant to type "Now he is saying that he can win..." etc.

Biscuits or no biscuits, Jeremy Corbyn is a clueless person who has learned nothing over the last 40 years. He only engages with those who agree with him and only agrees to interviews where he is given advance notice of the questions so that his team can brief him. He won't go on the Today programme and has said he will not attend TV leader debates if there is a General Election. What is he afraid of?

I find it utterly sinister that union leader Len McCluskey is warning MPs who have "disrespected" JC - just like the gangs who beat each other up over turf wars.

His team and Momentum have fired up young people who are naive and naturally want change and conned them that he can deliver it. Now he is saying that th can wil because he can get those who don't vote on his side. How can he know that they would support him or that the numbers involved would be sufficient to give him a majority?

It's all another con by politicians to gain power. The wider electorate who do vote will not be fooled by him and his promises. As for "honest, straight talking politics", when asked if the General Secretary will be sacked if he wins the leadership, all he would answer repeatedly was "I've enjoyed working with Ian McNichol". Why not have the guts to say "Yes" as that is what is going to happen.

What is the connection between being anti sugar and having an allotment ?

I don't want an oik or a hooray Henry for leader. I want a leader who doesn't depend on a cult to win an election , a leader to become leader because of his/her strengths and honesty

I don't have a preference for oiks over hooray henries or jolly hockey sticks head girls, possibly because I don't know any examples of any of them. What I prefer in a politician is someone with good political sense. Corbyn hasn't struck me as having any yet.

I've heard of Ant and Dec. Not sure I'd recognise them anywhere.

When my dad was a kid in a mining village he thought that he would know he was rich when he could afford to spread jam right to the edge of his bread.

If I were on a plane with Ant and Dec I would pretend not to know them either Stansgran and I am from Newcastle.

I don't know if biscuits tell you much about a person tbh

Shall we do a GN analysis just for fun?

I like Chocolate Hobnobs, Chocolate Digestives and those little cinnamon ones you get in the hairdressers. What does that say about me?

Yum! I want some! I love jam think it's something to do with it being a special treat when I was little.

And I am about to go and have some Blackberry and Apple on toast now having stuffed myself silly at the Pizza Hut buffet earlier

Yes. "Pure white and Deadly" started all this sugar knocking off!

Homemade jam is innocent! Hands off!

I'd choose an 'oik' over a'hooray Henry' or a'jolly hockey sticks headgirl' anyday.
