Only 17 safer Tory seats. One of which is Jeremy Hunt's by the way.

I know but all the time you have a double digit lead in the polls it really doesn't matter. Let's say there were to be a by-election in one of those seats. That could be interesting.

Very simplistic (and I'm sure you know that.) What Len said, I imagine, echoes the sentiment of plenty of senior figures on the left. They want to see progress in the polls and Corbyn doesn't have an unlimited time to do that. However, I'd suggest that the appetite for another leadership...

Because Sussex and Surrey isn't going to vote en masse for a Labour Party they see as "hard-left" or a Liberal Democrat Party run by Tim Farron. I'm not saying it's right but as long as these remain the conditions this dispute is taking place in, it barely features on a list of things for the...

How patient should business be then? None of this is their fault, their priority is to their shareholders, not to be sympathetic with the cause of an employees repeated non-attendance/ lateness, no matter how understandable the reason is. If someone else can do it with less fuss then they're not...
