Should Corbyn remain as Labour leader?

  1. 1. Should Corbyn remain as Labour leader?



Recommended Posts

Here's a Professor of Social Statistics (whose opinion is surely worth as much as that of some random talking head off the telly) stressing that there's a lack of real evidence of any widespread anti-Semitism in the Labour Party and that Corbyn's response should have been to call a spade a spade in respect of the people who use false allegations as a weapon against him.

I can see why you'd think that.

An expenses fiddler; hates immigrants; horny for war; supports private education; despises anything remotely Socialist; a Friend of Israel who spreads false allegations of anti-Semitism against supporters of Palestinian rights; and Brexit to the core.

Corbyn getting on with the job any wannabe Prime Minister should be doing - meeting with key politicians abroad to discuss the UK's future (rather than wasting any time trying to placate the ghosts of New Labour Past).

By European standards we do, there's a reason why in the European parliament the conservatives sit in the European Conservatives and Reformist grouping rather that the European People's Party.

And by American standards even Rees mogg sits in the middle. And we sit in the middle between Europe and the US. That's what we want to be as a nation, middle of the road domestically and internationally.

I think that’s how the Independent Group sell themselves as. “centrist, non-ideological and internationalist”. Be interesting to see how it pans out for them.

I think Corbyn has been far too passive with the anti-semitism smears. I assume he thought everything would go quiet if he did everything the LFI demanded, which was very naive of him.

He can't really win though. He goes on Marr or wherever and he just gets hammered.

Yes, let us use as an anchoring point a country that is sliding into outright Fascism...

 

The anglosphere has wonderful effect on people's brains.

Speaking of Marr I wonder what the main (and only) topic of conversation will be today....

 

I'm sure Marr will point out to Tom Watson that Wavertree CLP's vote of no confidence had nothing to do with anti-Semitism

I don't see how anyone breaks the 2 party system while we have the FPTP system that protects it. I think a move toward proportional representation could change all sorts of things, but i dont see the Tories ever supporting it as it would see the end of their unfair dominance. My opinion is while we have FPTP, we are stuck with the politics and parties we have.

A handy reminder (for anyone who still thinks that Corbyn is crap because he didn't win in 2017) of the extent to which the Blairites worked to prevent a Labour victory.
