It's not a high bar is it?

If you replaced the cabinet with all 20 Premier League managers, you'd still get an improvement.

Apart from Hodgson obviously.

In his speech at a demonstration on Saturday, Mr McDonald said: "We will not rest until we have justice. Until all people, Israelis and Palestinians, between the river and the sea, can live in peaceful liberty."

A Labour spokesperson said: "The comments made by Andy McDonald at the weekend were deeply offensive, particularly at a time of rising antisemitism which has left Jewish people fearful for their safety.

Vote Green. If enough people do it they could get the third biggest vote share at the next election.

 

This will then set up years of the Tories and Labour trying to outdo each other on green issues to get those voters back.

 

If Labour get a big victory at the next election then they will just keep moving further to the right.

Only if they're tactical votes. Otherwise you could easily end up in a situation where Labour loses seats it might otherwise win to the Tories to green votes, the Tories win the election and talk about how it was actually how people are tired of green policies that won them the election, then talk about 'protecting the motorists', and change their policies to suit.

 

Something pretty much exactly like what happened this year when they won Uxbridge.

Agreed. And I can see why, given the sheer torrent of accusations and smears that came Corbyn's way. If I were trying to win an election, I'd be mindful of how the guy before me did and learn from that.

 

If seems others think 'vote with your heart, say what you feel', is enough.

Most of the accusations against Corbyn either came from or were facilitated by the Labour right. He's under nowhere near the scrutiny Corbyn was. If he was he'd be unelectable.

They came from Labour, the Tories, other right-wing parties, pundits and celebs, and from foriegn sources.

 

And can you guess why he's under nowhere near the scrutiny Corbyn was, this man who's trying to get elected? Because he's learnt from Corbyn's mistakes, naivety, or stubbornness perhaps?
