He would cut everything military related and transfer it to foreign aid. He's very dangerous, and largely incompetent too, and when he gets in they'll probably kick him out in a coup.

They export manufacturing to China, then complain about unemployment.

The Tories are the ones helping Corbyn to get in because they essentially screwed over the young in favour of pensioner's votes, instead of governing in the interests of everyone.

@smujsmith
If Trident is abolished, we will get ZERO extra conventional kit. Some extra money will go into foreign aid and diplomacy to compensate for "lost power", and the vast majority will go into other departments like the NHS. If anything it would enable bigger cuts to conventional forces as they would argue the UK no longer has a global role, and so can do away with things like air refueling and much of the RFA.
