Once again demonstrating that you know very little. I just pointed out that to win an election you need to convince people to vote for you. You don't get that that patronising (and now developed into abusing) the very people you're trying to persuade.
I can just see you on the doorstep;
London...
Can I just say that it's this kind of delusional, patronising and disengaging comment from the Corbyn supporters that is probably the biggest single factor in switching off the voters who ultimately will be needed to vote labour if ever this view of utopia is ever to be delivered
I agree with this. His bendover on student loans was one his major cock up.
It's only seeing the tories now on things like education that you can see how good a job the lib dems did with moderating that
Just keep on thinking that. Unite today and old Len are clearly concerned by it given they needed to brief delegates at their brighton conference, that they could only respond in a manner aligned to union policy
When John Smith started rewriting the rule book it wasnt perceived that a leader would not be able to get the entry criteria of nominations or if that were the case that they would still plough on. The rules were still unclear when kinnock was challenged in 88 when he had an 87% mandate but he...
Interesting Yougov poll tonight saying members of the 5 big affiliated unions seemingly over 60% that Corbyn should be gone by next election.
Corbyn could be the only leader without the support of his parliamentary party or his paymasters. Just the £3 day trippers plus the cultists left?
I have seen nothing from momentum that shows anything other than a pressure group with chips on both shoulders. The only olive branch would be the one poking in the eye, sitting MP's they define as red tories or blue labour for daring to questions corbyn infallibility
Course I didn't go. I'm no longer a member.
Now momentum have completed their takeover of the local party let's see the deselection of sitting MPs and councillors.. If the stuff said to and about Peter Kyle on social media is to be believed it doesn't matter how popular or effective you are...
On the face of it it doesn't look great but need ro understand if this was url squatting. The fact corbyn was under pressure isn't a shock so would expect it would be easy to bulk register domains that would be useful
You have to question jc's pr team. Inviting the media in to a shadow cabinet meeting that has more empty chairs than places filled. He was clearly uneasy and it hadn't been thought through. Like the thick of it in reality
Labour didn't lose the last election because it wasn't left wing enough. It was perceived as not having a coherent policy on immigration, not being pro business and still lacking economic credibility (yeah I know that the tories are probably screwed now on those too)
Nobody wins elections by...
There was a strategy which was to be clear that labour took seriously people's concerns on immigration. Corbyn blew that wide open with his constant 'i think we should have unlimited immigration'
Now, he may believe that but it did nothing to get labour voters in the north east Wales or...
For some reason Corbyn is treating this as some form of student union sit in.
Rallying thousands of socialist workers or people like the student leader who started their speech with 'im not a labour member' does not a labour party protest make.
If only corbyn had campaigned for remain as much...
As corbyn is now finding out, you can't effectively lead anything unless you have the backing of your big hitters. If it's true that nobody of the leaders team attended labourin sessions and didn't support the campaign (or worse worked against it) then perhaps it's them who should be stripped...
