Utter bollocks of course and totally misses the point that when Corbyn refused to vote in line with the party it was because the party was voting to the right of the centre, and therefore totally against his principles. Field votes to the right because that's exactly where his principles lie. Let's not forget he was one of the men who visited Margaret Thatcher in her final days at Number 10 and begged her to stay on and fight! As is often the case with the Blairite, London-centric twitterati, you provide them with facts (such as their man Chuka Ummuna voting in line with the likes of Rees-Mogg half the time) and they refuse to acknowledge them. Instead they jump on their high horse, cry 'political thuggery' and bullying and paint themselves out as martyrs as they retweet Eddie Marsan, Tracy Ann Oberman, Frances Barber, David Quantick and JK bloody Rowling in the hope of a pile-on. And we're the cult that refuses to open our eyes??Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569732807130090838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-89860406516109189912018-08-31T17:59:00.074+01:002018-08-31T17:59:00.074+01:00Danczuk thought he had the popular vote and stood ...Danczuk thought he had the popular vote and stood as Independent,lost his deposit. In strong Labour seats it's the Labour candidate that will win.
