Radan Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Ah the good old Aunty Beeb...totally unbiased reporting with no hidden agenda.... :hihi: please dont even mention The Scum....it adds nothing of benefit to any conversation Interesting. If the Beeb said Corbyn is unelectable you'd just dismiss it? And The Sun? Would you accept any source saying he is unelectable? The proof will be in the next GE I guess. If he's still around.

999tigger Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Ah the good old Aunty Beeb...totally unbiased reporting with no hidden agenda.... :hihi: please dont even mention The Scum....it adds nothing of benefit to any conversation Why do you think Corbyn is going to win the majority of the electorate? Why should middle England vote for him? Business wont trust him. Really deluded. He appeals to the hard left and thats it. He is even less electable than Milliband and he was an utter disaster.

The problem is Banjo demands proof that Corbyn is unelectable and claims Labour successes at council elections and mayoral elections counters the unelectable claim. The only way to know for sure is to have a GE. But he might not make it that long, hence we will never really know. But to me, you and MANY others the man looks unelectable.

Jeffrey Shaw Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 but it's not possible to deselect 75% of the PLP It is possible, albeit very implausible. ---------- Post added 07-07-2016 at 15:13 ---------- How many of the seats won in bye elections were in marginals or conservative held? Doest really rpove much if you are winning seats that already had big Labour majorities. But a polarisation of Labour support could lead to two rival Labour candidates standing. A vote split might let-in UKIP, which last year came second in a lot of Labour's strongholds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all going terribly well. http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jul/09/labour-turmoil-angela-eagle-jeremy-corbyn Labour has been plunged into its “greatest crisis for generations” as a leadership bid was launched against Jeremy Corbyn and its biggest union donor waged war on the party’s deputy leader. In an extraordinary day of bloodletting, Angela Eagle, who recently resigned as shadow business secretary, announced her bid to topple Corbyn, accusing him of failing to fulfil “his first and foremost duty” of holding ministers to account and being ready for government. The announcement followed the decision by Labour’s deputy leader, Tom Watson, to end negotiations with the unions backing the Labour leader, claiming that Corbyn had torpedoed progress by declaring his intention to stay on as leader “come what may”.
