Re: How does Corbyn expect to Win?

The chairman of a constituency Labour Party (CLP) has resigned, criticising leader Jeremy Corbyn. In a letter, he wrote that, he ""can no longer follow the clown that leads", siting Corbyn being too much under the influence of `Trotskyite` Len McCluskey. He also condemned the choice of a Labour candidate for Leicester who is part of Corbyn's constituency Labour Party in Islington.

Another moderate leaving the Momentum/Militant controlled party.

Maybe he doesn't, but, has to say he does?

But it will be an opportunity for voters, like myself, to influence the choice of who represents them in these current times.

My MP, (Lee) got elected in what became a Brexit constituency.

Not long after he made the famous statement about not being able to support Brexit "In all Conscience".

He then did the famous switch to the Lib Dems whereby he held up Boris's speech to march in to the Lib Dem area of Parliament.

We were left with no representative thereafter.

For sure, the Electorate will now know how important it is to understand what their candidate will be voting for.

No more "Just voting for the Party".

I've got £x sitting on a Labour government. Never wanted to lose a bet so much before!

It I still believe I won't.

Re: How does Corbyn expect to Win?

I see McDonnell has opened his big mouth again and put another potential nail in the Labour Party's coffin.

He's claiming that workers will `take back control` if they get elected. Just like being taken back to the seventies - British Leyland workers had control didn't they? As did the miners and others. We all know how that worked out don't we? Constant strikes, power cuts, three-day weeks etc. The country ground to a halt driving businesses away taking their investments in British industry with them.

Not fit to govern.

Re: How does Corbyn expect to Win?

Hi

I have just read the Labour Party Manifesto.

There is no way I can vote for Corbyn, it is back to the worst excesses of Red Robbo and co.

Re: How does Corbyn expect to Win?

Labour are an absolute car crash.

I heard Corbyn announcing his manifesto, leaving out how much all that would cost, including free broadband (which incidentally anyone can get from Greggs, Costa Coffee and Starbucks), nationalising utilities etc etc.

Rumour has it Jess Phillips is about to quit on Magic Grandpa any day now.

I don't blame her ... Corbyn, McDonnell, Abbott, Butler, Pidcock and co are all complete nutters

I'm renaming labours manifesto as "The Little Book of Hate".

Sounds better innit (as Pidcock would say...)

Hi

I am a Socialist Bread, very different from you.

I have no problem at all with paying more tax to help those less fortunate than myself.

I am not however a Marxist, so Corbyn can swan off.

On that we can agree.
