First Leadership Election, 2015
As ever with "socialists" they are happy to spend the money of other people but less keen on splashing their own cash. Thus only three private individuals (excluding Jon Lansman - see below) actually made declarable donations to the thick, done-nothing, nonentity from Islington. Two of them were vocal supporters of Jeremy's "friends" - the terrorist organisation, Hamas. One infamously wrote:
"The Palestinians have a moral right to their terrorism within historic Palestine..."
But, of course, it was the hard-pressed members of trade unions who were forcibly "taxed" by their leaders to stump up the bulk of the dosh for the Bearded Weirdo. And Unite members, thanks to Corbyn's friend and ally Len McCluskey, were very generous with their members' dues. In the first campaign Corbyn took the following off Unite's members:
£3000.00 - for serviced offices;
£10,762.42 - for secondment of staff, and
£50,000.00 - by way of donation.
In addition to these whopping sums, Unite also made him an "unsecured, interest-free loan" of another colossal £50,000.00 (yes, fifty thousand pounds) on 8th July, 2015. Now Jeffrey Bernard is a wealthy man but even he probably hasn't got £50k hidden in a tin in his allotment shed and it seems improbable that he ever intended to pay this money back to Unite members. So why was this sordid deal dressed up a a fake loan? Why did Unite rig the donation in this way? And yes, those excited Unite workers who are thinking there may be £50k winging its way back to them - this was a forced donation of their money since Unite then kindly "wrote-off" Jezza's debt on 12th September, 2015! What the hell is going on here?
Second Leadership Election, 2016
Labour MP's voted 172 to 40 in a vote of "no-confidence" in their ludicrous leader in 2016 having seen him "inaction" and once again it was mainly trade union members who had to pay the price for Jeremy's deluded ambition.
Two lawyers provided "legal services" for the dimwitted crypto-communist but only two individuals divvied-up for The Messiah (and one of those was Mike Wrack of the FBU).
Once again, those workers who, unlike St Jez, have actually had to face austerity since the Great Crash under the last Labour Government had to flash the cash. The usual suspects paid up but, once again, it was Unite who robbed their members' funds to an astonishing degree.
This time, Unite gave "serviced offices" worth £21,856.15 and then two more huge loans.
On 7th July, 2016 Unite members were obliged to make a loan "for an indefinite period" ("lol") to Jez of a stonking £25,000.00 but just a month later McCluskey "doubled-up" and forced his trade unionists to make another "interest-free loan for an indefinite period" to Popeye of a stonking £50,00.00.
Once again - why is Jeremy accepting fake loans from workers which he can never repay and why is McCluskey dressing up donations as "loans" in this way?
And yes, of course, on 23rd November, 2016 Unite duly wrote-off both loans to the Islington conman and that was another £75,000.00 of union dues straight down the pan. Now Jeremy, that really IS "a magic money tree!"
Momentum
On 24th June, 2015 Mr Jon Lansman, a former acolyte of another crazed leftie - The Bennatollah - set up two limited companies (limited by guarantee) to support "Jeremy" [sick]. The first was Jeremy Corbyn Campaign 2015 (Supporters) Limited. Lansman was the sole subscriber and director. Lansman used the "standard form" of Articles of Association for this type of company but added a sinister Stasi-esque variation that one of the company's objects was to be "to control and process information collected in the course of Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party leadership campaign".
The second company was Jeremy Corbyn Campaign 2015 (Services) Limited. Lansman and a guy called Fletcher were the subscribers and in addition to the standard Articles an additional object was added by Lansman "to act as an employer and undertake various administrative functions in the course of Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party leadership campaign." (Query why this was necessary when Unite members were paying large amounts to support Corbyn's campaign?)
Now there must have been a bit of a cash-flow crises at the start of Jezza's first tilt at the tarnished prize of Labour leadership [sic]. Lansman is said to be a "millionaire". He gives his address as a posh flat in Shad Thames (by Tower Bridge in London) where most of the flats sell for well over £1m. Strangely, Zoopla only value Lansman's hovel at £905,000 but still, hardly Grenfell Tower for this dear old leftie. So Corbyn turned to his rich pal for help.
On 23rd June, 2015 - the day before Lansman set up the two companies - he personally lent Jez £5,123.59p. But clearly Corbyn is a man of honour. Whilst happy to shaft Unite members over their alleged "loans" to him The Saint wouldn't sh*t on "one's" rich mate. Thus Jon didn't have to wait long for repayment - indeed the wealthy hard-line Trot got his cash BACK just a month later on 24th July, 2015 when the union cash taps started to flow!
All this research started thanks to a good spot by my old mate Bob Woods - a life-long Labour Party Member, trade unionist and award-receiving trade union employee. Of course, that track record is no longer valued by Labour "members" and he is currently being hammered on social media for daring to speak out against the joke Corbyn!
Bob saw the following "advert" and expressed the view that this gave an outward impression of being a Labour-Party site. Indeed, the "join the Labour Party" button does take one to the official Party site whereas the "donate" button invites one to make donations to "Jeremy for Labour Limited" which, after a bust-up within Corbyn's Momentum, is a reincarnation of the aforementioned Jeremy Corbyn Campaign 2015 (Supporters) Limited. The person with "significant control" of this Comany remains Jon Lansman. Incidentally, this is now the third name for this company since between October, 2015 and July, 2016 it was known as Momentum Campaigns Limited.
The curious thing here is that this company was in existence for the first leadership contest and that Corbyn had thousands of £3 Trotsyist infiltrators - sorry, valued new Labour Party members - howling at the moon yet Lansman filed "dormant company accounts" made up to 30th June, 2016. We know that alleged "socialists" can't organise a p*ss-up in a Shad Thames wine bar but this filing suggests that the Company received no donations whatsoever in support of the great man for over a year from the crazed Corbynistas!
No doubt cash is now rolling in. But if you don't want to donate via the site I can give you the address of Lansman's luxury Thames-side flat should you wish to send donations direct "lol"!
Anyone who has had anything do do with the hard lefties will know that they constantly fight like cats in a sack. The old Jeremy Corbyn Campaign 2015 (Services) Limited has now become Momentum Campaign (Services) Limited. When Lansman and Fletcher still had control, accounts made up to 30th June, 2016 showed that they had mustered some money from somewhere since on that date the Company had net assets of £49,557. Alas the law allows the Company to only file abbreviated accounts so that the source of the cash can be kept secret. But 12 days later Lansman and Fletcher let the Company - yes, you guessed it - make an unsecured, interest free LOAN to Jeremy Corbyn of no less than £50,000.00 for an indefinite period! Clearly Corbyn has no intention of ever paying this money back from his own considerable resources, gold-plated pensions etc and so why has this "donation" again been dressed up as a loan? Perhaps Unite members will stump up when Momentum need the dosh for something else and the crafty commies have cleverly not formally written this loan off in case some other mugs come along to give dosh to JBC which can then be legally diverted back to Momentum. Perhaps that is why two lawyers, including a QC, have helped the "Corbyn" campaign?
As with Corbyn himself this whole loan business reeks of deceit. The moral of the story [sic] is if you ever want to lend money to Steptoe and get it back, change your name to Jon Lansman! "Millionaire" personal friends of the Sage of Islington are "preferential creditors" before trade unionists.
(Of course, as with most left-wing sects the members have fallen out and Lansman and Fletcher are no longer involved with the Company Momentum Campaign (Services) Limited.
