Yeah that was great to be fair. The abuse she gets off the Tories when she speaks is horrible. Bercow had to stand up and tell them to shut the fuck up.

I'm married to a Welsh woman who's family live in Wrexham, Cardiff and Liverpool.  They are all working class ex-British Forces (Welsh Fusiliers) and are to a man/woman convinced Corbyn supports the IRA.  They would vote for Hitler before him.  And while they have all said they'd never vote Tory, I'm fairly certain a few of them would to make sure Corbyn doesn't get in, this is their hate for the man. All their mates who are also ex-forces or partners/friends of ex-forces are all massively anti-Corbyn too and will not vote for Labour despite being Labour voters for decades because he's the leader. You can argue the merit of this (daft) policy that they have, but it's happening. 

 

It just seems to me that there is simply no chance of Labour winning with him as leader given the press propaganda against him too, so surely it's more important that Labour win with someone else as leader, as opposed to a "good performance" with Corbyn that still results in a Tory Government?

 

The biggest threat to not just the UK, but my country, and Europe, is a Johnson lead government for the next 5 years.  Surely everything must be done to prevent that?  And does that include getting rid of a Labour leader that's so divisive that even normal Labour voters won't touch him, such as my in-laws and their friends?

Is “some working class people are convinced that Corbyn supports the IRA” a good enough reason to replace a leader of a political party? Make no mistake, the right wing press will smear his replacement all the same if he’s a socialist. Only yesterday, the right accused Jeremy Corbyn of supporting ISIS FFS.

Only yesterday the Left accused BJ of not caring about the victims of Grenfell.

Feel free to use ‘hyperbole’ Rico. I’m not stopping you. I posted the link where the right called Corbyn an ISIS supporter.... pretty sure that’s not hyperbole.

No thanks. You’ll misunderstand and accuse me of conspiracy to murder.

Nope.  I'm just giving an example of usual Labour voters who aren't voting Labour because of the leader and asking is it worth considering changing the leader to give Labour the best possible chance of a win?

 

I see that cunt Rachel Riley is really pushing the "a vote for Corbyn is a vote for racism" line and the sad thing is loads of people who may have voted for Labour now won't because of that also. 

 

This election is the biggest in a lifetime considering what could happen if Johnson wins - so I'm asking is it worth it to keep someone who seems to have virtually no chance of winning out of some loyalty or whatever, or if it would be better to change now and give Labour a better chance?

I'm surprised that any of them were Labour to start with as any service people I have known have all been right-wing politically , and with the recent comments from that general about a coup,  and squaddies having their wrists slapped for firing their weapons at a Corbyn picture , I am not sure he will make many inroads there anyway.

 

The odd thing is that although Trident is constantly brought up , Corbyn is pushing for conventional forces numbers to be increased whereas their Tory darlings have run them into the ground.
