Hey you know the old dude with the Vermin shirt? Turns out the people with their arms round him are a Progress employee and a 'social media professional'. Sound familiar? https://t.co/VtqM5O3Yxg

ShredsYouSay posted:Could Corbyn seriously deselect 100's of people and come back from this? And actually not get reamed by a UKIP-Tory coalition? It's not Corbyn that deselects people, it's the CLP:s. And given his support among the party membership, he would have a good chance of having a lot of parachuted Blairites deselected. This is probably part of why they're this desperate.

UKIP don't really have much purpose or popularity if brexit or a semi-brexit  goes ahead (they already lost a lot of funding from backers and they won't even be able to sponge off the eu anymore) He has nothing left to lose by insulting the eu a bunch, but gains attention for it, and his supporters and potential future audience will lap it up.Gonzo McFee posted:I just joined the Labour party.

ShredsYouSay posted:Could Corbyn seriously deselect 100's of people and come back from this? And actually not get reamed by a UKIP-Tory coalition? Probably not, no. But the PLP have made it so that even if Corbyn were to resign and endorse whoever came next that Labour won't win the next election. Now if the PLP had taken their medicine when their chosen one Liz Kendall got slaughtered, their second choice Yvette Cooper got decimated and the third option they resigned to letting win because he was as left wing as they're willing to let on a ballot Andy Burnham got beaten firmly then Corbyn would be commanding an impressive lead and probably would end up being the next PM. But they spent his entire time in the spotlight reacting like children who were told they couldn't have their sweets so here we are. Voting for Corbyn again because at least he's willing to stand up to racism at a time when we're dangerously close to open fascism becoming a leading force in British politics. The Insect Court posted:"Look how easily Trump won the Republican primary, time to clear out a jail cell for Crooked Hillary because he'll win every state!" shout loyal Trump supporters as they dismiss every poll showing him losing terribly being a plot by the hated Speaking of open fascism. gently caress off.

Hoops posted:Let's just knock this leadership election out quickly. If Corbyn wins a big mandate, he wins the battle, end of. Right now he's in this very awkward position of a brutal insult from his party, while pointing to a leadership election that happened ages ago in political terms. lol like gently caress, he conclusively won the leadership battle 9 months ago and has exceeded every arbitrary test set for him in the hope that he'd fail and give and excuse for kicking him out. When he wins again, gently caress knows what will happen, it'll be better than the alternative but I'm getting the nagging feeling (hope being, of course, a mistake) that it will not be good.

Hollismason posted:Why did you vote leave and are you happy with the consequences? Just curious. I'm not, as I said previously I'd have preferred to have had this referendum under completely different circumstances, but decided that as a single voter I would vote Leave on the principles of Dennis Skinner and the 'Lexit' (ugghhh gently caress that term) crowd. I feel the EU is subsidising the lovely right-wing governments of the Eastern Bloc, pushes through poorly thought out economic policy and I personally dislike Britain's 'special snowflake' relationship with the EU. If I was a policy maker, i.e. in Cameron's position, I would have not put this to referendum because he was playing with fire. But seeing as I doubted me and other idiosyncratic Leave voters were going to be the ones to swing the referendum, I voted Leave instead of spoiling my ballot. In hindsight I would have spoiled the ballot. This isn't to say I don't share responsibility for the outcome, I just find it funny that people point to me as if I am literally all 17 million leave voters in person.

tooterfish posted:As far as I can see it's still better than 2008 by a gnat's pube hair, and it's not like the world's financial system collapsed into a burning heap back then or anything. Actually no, it's 0.3% below Jan 10 2009, which is the previous lowest value on those charts. In fact it is a 31 year low, according to the reports after the referendum (and seeing that the value hasn't changed much since)

I don't think Corbyn can win a general election, but I don't think anyone with decent policies is going to for the next ten years or so. That's the price we pay for having literally zero political dissent towards the rightward march we've been on for two decades. I'll back a left-wing candidate over anything else regardless of electability because it's better to have a bad government with a powerful opposition to keep their worst excesses in check than two interchangeably bad parties trading power based on who can write "CONTROLS ON IMMIGRATION" in the biggest font on the most things.

That's the price we pay for having literally zero political dissent towards the rightward march we've been on for two decades. Yeah, pretty much. Corbyn is severely unlikely to win an election but he's also the best hope the party have at this point - they've been so utterly hosed by vacuous spads being parachuted in that there's only a tiny proportion of people with functioning brains. Blair killed Labour for a generation.

Also I think Corbyn can win. Anti-establishment is in right now and Corbyn is promising something different, which people have made very clear they want. If his Party stopped doing everything they could to make Labour look like a garbage fire they'd actually be ahead in the polls. Hell they've got this mess going on and they're still breaking even. gently caress the PLP. Corbyn will outlast them and maybe even pick up some votes from people going "It's disgusting what they're doing to you. You're a good lad"
