He is a terrific parliamentary performer. He can, in a very measured way make mince-meat of most Tories including the PM.<br /><br />But there really needs to be someone who can draw together all the strands of Labour. (I will not forgive the Blairite rebels who have publicly done so much damage to Labour in their anti-Corbyn campaigns).<br /><br />All is not lost though. The public have short memories. Any Opposition Leader only needs 12 months to campaign and decimate the Tories in Parliament.<br /><br />I'm particularly annoyed Corbyn is promoting a Brexit position, The game here is to delay and delay Brexit (the majority of Tories don't want it) to the point where a second referendum becomes a requirement. Jeremy is on a losing battle and cannot win whatever the result.<br /><br />But who to take over? Those who publicly opposed Corbyn is such a damaging way should never be considered. who will be Labour's hero? <br />Sam Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18294364000748130992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-31713946431128470892017-01-27T10:02:51.656+00:002017-01-27T10:02:51.656+00:00Claiming something has happened before it has happ...Claiming something has happened before it has happened and then the thing eventually happening is not the same as reporting facts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-7420439680703269342017-01-26T23:08:48.718+00:002017-01-26T23:08:48.718+00:00Why has Jeremy Corbyn committed Labour to voting f...Why has Jeremy Corbyn committed Labour to voting for Article 50?<br /><br /><br />http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/staggers/2017/01/why-has-jeremy-corbyn-committed-labour-voting-article-50<br /><br />Informative read. @OffCentreNewsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-61769718271760605232017-01-26T22:22:00.805+00:002017-01-26T22:22:00.805+00:00A considered response as always , Alan:

On the issue of triggering Article 50, had he decided to oppose it he would've been attacked for "Standing in the way of the expressed wish of the British people." The same propaganda method will be used against him on other issues.<br /><br />In other words, it's just another load of anti-Corbyn bollocks.<br /><br />Meanwhile, standing in the wings (literally licking his lips) is the ineffable figure of arch-hypocrite "Bomber" Benn ready and willing to sell his arse to the most useful ranting righty power source. At which point he will be promoted as "electable," probably by Murdoch and Rothermere propaganda clerks and goons.<br /><br />It's all so predictable it's tedious. The biggest victims, as always, will be the most vulnerable. But I don't expect Benn or <i>the Guardian</i> to give a shit about that. Nor will the tories or the LibDems - after all, they've got form.Alan Cliffordnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-51891190708631239562017-01-26T20:43:53.890+00:002017-01-26T20:43:53.890+00:00Corbyn great backbencher & local MP.

Otherwise, the 3 line whip will mean resignations and sackings of shadow front bench members, the Labour party looking even more feeble and confused than it already does, no change in Brexit voters’ perception of the party’s position and no difference to the outcomes in the 2 coming byelections.<br />All of which might just persuade Corbyn to sack himself and allow someone capable of presenting a coherent and consistent policy on Brexit which , at the moment, only the SNP and the Lib Dems seem capable of doing. Labour Remainers should be doing all they can to help their MPs to get their 'Leader' to see sense.A.Robot (Mrs)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-7054762536984959892017-01-26T18:17:04.590+00:002017-01-26T18:17:04.590+00:00To be fair, last week after the Guardian posted it...To be fair, last week after the Guardian posted its headline it later changed it.

When The Guardian posted early on that Lewis would go, and when others followed up with Smith and Butler - I smelt a rat - or, at the least, somebody briefing against them/Corbyn. I think I was right. Siddiq has indeed gone, but she said she'd be doing that last week. Subtly, The Guardian has been attempting to row back on its earlier assertions.john richesnoreply@blogger.com
