1. He is not the prime minister
2. The chances of him becoming the PM are extremely bleak.

I wonder why the media is giving him so much attention

Entrepreneurial activities are the extreme end of capitalism. Yet Corbyn is anti capitalist as is the idiot he has for finance. He wants to tax the rich so what is the point of anyone wanting to take the risk of starting up a business?

But will initiate a clampdown on tax avoidance, costing billions to save a billion.

2. The chances of him becoming the PM are extremely bleak The chances of him becoming PM are extremely low. If he does the outlook is bleak.

FTFY.

So he plans to extend SMP to the self-employed and this is somehow pro-business?

Life under Komrade Korbyn.

You choose.

A. Life on unlimited, uncapped, tax free benefits. The more children you have the more money you will have. Everything paid for. Full state pension paid for whilst on benefits. Spend your time with your family, in the park, in the pub, doing what you like when you like. No getting up at 5.00am for work, no sitting in traffic half the evening, or crushed onto a train. Spend your time doing your hobbies, no money worries, the benefits and state handouts are limitless.

B. Taxed to the point of oblivion, all your time commuting and working, hardly see friends and family, work, work, work. Stress, hassle, HMR&C trying to nail your @rse at every opportunity, hand pretty much all of your hard earned over to fund those taking option A.

I'm not sure that's the case actually.

Yet Corbyn is anti capitalist as is the idiot he has for finance. He wants to tax the rich so what is the point of anyone wanting to take the risk of starting up a business?

Because if you only start up a business looking to get rich you're almost certainly going to fail? Rich meaning, say £100k+ gross income...

Because if you're earning that big, you're still earning big even with high taxes - by the time you reach the point you're able to complain how much tax you're paying, you're already a success.

And this is about the self-employed... is that meaning people looking to start a big, successful business or those working as freelancers or running a "home business" to make a living rather than a fortune?
