I think the problem is that Corbyn is too good for England, and the British.

Jeremy Corbyn has made all these terrible decisions that doomed his party like uhh... having bad articles written about him.

I love me some hard left assholes, but lol this is reason enough. Hillary taught this particular lesson real well. Once you're in the muck, it doesn't much matter how you got there. Of course, from everything I've heard there's no real alternative so whatever

The british press is terrible and sucks Tory dick every day. There will never be a labor leader that they like until their lives are being threatened by the mass communist uprising. If this is your standard for a bad leader then Labor will have to have a new election every week as the press slams each new sequential leader until the people wind up voting Cameron in for labor leader or somthing.

A socialist leader could conceivably counterbalance their inevitable terrible press somewhat by regularly saying and doing things to inspire the populace and letting it go viral. People are desperately hungry for that sort of thing right now. But that would require being something other than a total void in the charisma department.

Once he sat on a train floor and another time he mowed his lawn in a t-shirt. Both of these things seemed pretty cool to me.

One of the rhetorical tricks that corbynistas think is clever is to claim he's popular and a winner because he won the leadership elections.

They forget or willfully ignore that it isnt the Party Members who count, but the general public.

Corbyn or May: it matters little, as the Ed Stone is the Orb's candidate of choice, and all the Isles shall bow before its cold, unfeeling, monolithic form.

quote:

My former colleagues on The Guardian hold an enviable record in the annals of political journalism. They have succeeded in getting the result of every major political event in the country wrong.

Even if you tried consistently to be wrong, fate would decree that occasionally you would get one result right. Their consistency in getting things so wrong, for so long, challenges the theory of random number generation. The infinite monkey theorem holds that a monkey hitting keys of keyboards at random ad infinitum would eventually type the works of Shakespeare. This is not true. The Guardian never gets a political result right.

Her party has the most MPs of everyone and can pass a Queen's Speech provided her own MPs vote for it, in face of the opposition.

Has there been an actual vote for it though or is it just based on "oh we will eventually have a deal with the dup even if there is no actual one right now" like it seems to be?

A vote for what? The Queen's Speech? No, not yet. They don't need to have any formal deal with the DUP, either, and they don't need to vote on forming it (although as pointed out already, they would win such a vote).

Yeah theoretically but it's kinda weird that all this poo poo is happening just based on "well, we would win if there was a vote so just accept us now and let's not bother until friday to confirm things."
