I'm going to whack out my time machine and stop Corbyn from ever getting elected, just for you. I can't believe the key to stopping brexit happened before brexit was a thing. This is a realistic idea that definitely could have happened

jabby posted:Asking people, especially women politicians, to change their appearance in order to better appeal to the electorate might be trivial to you, but that doesn't make it right to do so. Your argument seems to rest on the idea that while it isn't 'right, reasonable or fair' to judge someone on characteristics they can't change (including ethnicity and gender) political parties should still choose potential leaders/candidates based on those things because the electorate is going to judge them anyway. That's just not right, and it leads back to my basic point which is gently caress focus groups if they are telling you things that you can't (or shouldn't) do anything about. Part of corbyns lack of appeal to the electorate is very much the fact that he is perceived as a scruffy old man, to the point where hameron laid down sweet pmq owns about it.

Hot take: brexit could never have been stopped. the second the Tories won a majority government with the manifesto commitment to hold a referendum brexit was inevitable.
|
# ¿ Feb 17, 2017 12:04 |

Hot take 2: any chance of remaining after leave won was a hopeful dream because the Tories have a majority and seem very committed to pushing through the hardest brexit.

Corbyn spent a lot of time being undermined by his shadow cabinet after the guy they proposed as a joke actually won because he wasn't a blairite/brownite rehash of things that lost 2010 and 2015. So either way people are going to say that Corbyn could have won.
