The (backbench) peasants are revolting

I wonder, could this be one of the triggers to bring Cameron's government down??? (remember his majority is only 16)

Interesting and I wonder if they are really standing up for their constituents or just worried they will lose their jobs next time

Re: The (backbench) peasants are revolting

Hi

I would love another election now.

With Corbyn and his terrorist mates, his insistence that we should give unlimited numbers of unchecked economic migrants the freedom to come to the UK and pay them full Benefits immediately, it would finish him off for good.

Bring it on, then hopefully he would resign and we could have a realistic opposition to fight on behalf of the average person here in the UK.

I wish he would resign - he is not a full shilling

At least they are able to disagree with their leader and do unlike the other cowardly lot.

On the contrary , isn't it the front benchers as well as the back benchers who disagree with their lead in the other lot

Re: The (backbench) peasants are revolting

You may be right but they're to busy hanging on to their jobs to do anything about it.

Re: The (backbench) peasants are revolting

It looks as if Jeremy is in more trouble than Dave Uncle Joe. Not from the back but from the front bench.
