Team Corbyn has confirmed this morning that Jezza will stay on as Labour leader, regardless of the Election result.
Just as Cameron said he would stay on regardless of the referendum result. They had to say that to stop pro real Labour, anti Corbyn Labour votes, not supporting him in the hope of getting rid of him. ...well it makes sense to me.
What is your prediction for the number of Labour seats Ted? I am desperate to buy you a muesli breakfast.
If Corbyn resigns there will be an open contest, and no Lefty will get a look in. If he clings on and is challenged he won't need to get parliamentary backing to stand again. Momentum have got it all worked out
Would be foolish to make a prediction of this election, We saw Corbyn has plenty of support, even if many believe them to be foolish, misguided or just wrong, their vote counts as much as the blue rinse brigade. More importantly, if the Corbyn supporters come out whilst the blue rinse stay at home thinking its a done deal, there may be a few upsets. We've seen with Red Len at UNISON the votes that count are the votes that are made. Too many think its a forgone conclusion. I'm not so sure. Lets take our own Jo (why no E), if the Labour supporters switch to LibDem as the lesser of two evils, the remainers switch to them & the hard core Tories don't bother, Orpington may yet make electoral headlines again. Returning to Corbyn, his supporters are, active & 1 active vote is worth far more than any stay at home don't votes. Lets see what the outcome is & if Theresa's calculation backfires I hope you will "back the will of the people" and not complain about anything Comrade Corbyn pronounces, as you want us remainers to do with Saint Theresa.
Labour actually have an excellent candidate in Orpington in Nigel de Gruchy Candidates like him are being badly let down by selfish Team Corbyn.
I am sure The Tories willbe the largest party. I don't have the inside track on how these polls are conducted but in simplistic terms if Labour or any opposition party wins a seat by say 50 seats it's the same as a landslide win. The distribution of people who actually vote is what's important.. Oh & Mos poll says lead down to 11%.
Why are the Tories so over-sensitive about any perceived criticism of Mrs May? No-one mentions her abysmal record on immigration when she was Home Secretary.
Immigration was completely out of control - because of your lovely EU Fortunately the good people of England have rectified that error
We have plenty of controls over non EU migration, how many came in last year ? 250,000 + why when Mrs May is such a hard strong leader ?
