They'll also keep doing it after the election no matter what so for god sake start ignoring them unless they're saying something more substantial than 'I don't like Corbyn, he's an 80s lefty' or 'Labour are still behind, therefore Corbyn must go immediately'.

Which is basically what he was accusing Corbyn supporters of doing by refusing to drop him. Christ he's a oval office.

If Corbyn does lose I just hope his successor can arrive as a peacemaker rather than fighting for either side of the war within the Labour Party. Corbyn has certainly driven some voters away but he's also attracted new ones and provided a set of overwhelmingly popular and good policies. A leader with less baggage and a better public image could really capitalise on at least some of those policies and hopefully bring people back while also retaining the new voters.

Corbyn tried to be a peacemaker from the beginning and had it constantly thrown back in his face and used to undermine him. I have absolute faith that if anyone involved in that disgraceful debacle is trusted again they will immediately use that position to try and seize power back from the membership.

Considering Cooper is positioning herself as the peacemaker who can unify the body I think unfortunately Jabby's right. I take some solace in the knowledge that Cooper has so many enemies within the PLP that her odds of actually getting the leadership are pretty slim.

If Corbyn manages to improve on Miliband's vote share (and hell, actually matching the 35% of Blair's 2005 victory looks within reach) then I can't possibly see the membership voting for a candidate who has always opposed him like Cooper. I think if anything it would galvanise anger against the PLP and Corbyn would be returned by a landslide if they tried to challenge him.

Again, the "Unity" rhetoric only swings in one direction, and is actually "Shut up and capitulate to our Neo-Liberalism". The centerists will never unify behind a left wing candidate, but will demand unity and no descent under their agenda at all times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHDmskeGARk Kokoro Wish fucked around with this message at 00:18 on May 21, 2017 |

Hi everybody. My dad, a retired scot ex-submariner with pictures of I dunno HMS vanguard on his study wall announced to me today he is voting labour (in an english seat) and has developed time for Corbyn. His wife, my mother, a recently retired NHS employee (band 6 or something) who normally refers to how 'we vote' refuses to vote labour with a scoff. She is going Lib Dem. Old people man. I'll try and put this on a graph for you but I can't find my Office 2003 CD. Also my phone doesn't have a cd rom.

That poll is really encouraging. If the gap keeps shrinking we may even have May sent back with the same/only slightly increased majority. The fact that I am excited for that prospect is loving depressing.jabby posted:gently caress that.

So someone decided to publish a long shot of May launching the Conservative Battle Bus. Literally everyone in the "crowd" was a hand picked Tory activist.

Unity cabinet which would promptly go on to leak, resign and brief against Corbyn. I think Corbyn had an idea of being a principled democratic leader who could keep his personal views on e.g. Trident separate from the aims of the party as decided by its membership at conference. This did not work out well for various reasons.

It's the consequences of stage managing everything; the list of approved people who can be in the same room as politicians gets smaller and smaller and it all relies on pictures taken up close and from a low angle (all the guys on their knees there) and crap media which reports that as a crowd of supporters.
