Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

[Plumdaff]

Fairly sure I heard Smith on Radio 4 criticising Corbyn for allegedly telling MPs they had to get behind him and work hard or they'd be sacked. But he can't have been saying that because he'd of course realise how out of touch from ordinary workers that would make him sound; to the point of being ludicrous.

Jones has totally shat the bed hasn't he? Writes a best selling book about the iniquities of the establishment, then goes running to them to sort things out as soon as shit gets vaguely real.

Alas Smith & Jones.

Think I'll throw a temper tantrum at work tomorrow and refuse to do anything. Will let you all know how that goes.

I often refuse to do anything at work. But I keep it to myself. And let my inaction speak for itself.

The whole 'would you like it if your boss did this?' argument fails on another significant level which is the fact that 99.9% of us do not work for managers which are elected democratically.

There's also the little matter that he hasn't actually done anything wrong other than not let some of them bully him out of post.

They're always better. Them. Long running trope of the british middle class left. A reflection and projection of their disgust of the real w/c in this country.

Sorry, but that sounds like Corbs to a degree. He is certainly pro WC, but my word does he like the romantic internationalism both in politics and in the personal. More likely to be seen at SOAS than in Dudley.

Right, where's my Sandinista LP?

Nothing to do 'corbs'. Sounds like most of the left. Not the PLP left though. Nor the non-corbyn left. Other causes to support.

All coming out in the wash now regarding the Brighton pub incident - Cllrs showing their true colours too.

Revealed: The anti-Corbyn “moderate” in Brighton and Hove who stands accused of the hate-crime…

Blimey, more long winded than Joseph Conrad!

yes refutations need to be concise

No they don't!

Oh bollocks!

Terrible interview of Corbyn by Jackie Long on C4 news just now - she was just awful. Is Corbyn getting more assertive? His big clunking fist smashing the lectern to pieces in his speech today and twice in that interview he had to scream in her face 'let me finish answering the question!!'

I think he is getting more assertive. Now he just needs to stop apologising for things that aren't his fault.

 

[YouSir]

Just seen the first reference to 'Bromentum'. Fucksake.

 

[ViolentPanda]

I can't see the value in using two dummy candidates in a row tbh. If someone else stands against Smith at this point (although tbf a pine cone would probably get more votes than him) it'd make the anti Corbyn faction look even more incompetent and out of touch than they've already demonstrated themselves to be.

e2a: Not to say this definitely isn't the plan. Only that if it is, it's a fucking stupid plan.

I'm not saying he's a stalking horse for another candidate this time around, but his bald fibs about radicalism, and his past mean that a lot of ire will be expended on him, ire that means that next time round - and there will be a next time - that those who've kept themselves aloof this time, may be able to soft-soap/slime their way past the electorate's guard next time.

Fuck me! Michael Crick is annoying as sin!

Because everyone knows, the management and the company represent the workforce.... criticising global corporations is directly criticising the workforce. Or something.

 

[Rob Ray]

We'll keep triggering ballots until you stupid plebs do what we tell you.

 

[butchersapron]

Note the expectation of continued defeat. Changes how many PLP are on their side. A reverse siege.

Michael Crick was on C4 News tonight asking a group of Momentum supporters how their homeless mate could afford the £25 to become a registered Labour supporter...

After this, akehurst etc will be told to shut up in very strong terms

It was interesting so see the anti semitism Ruth Smeeth issue - pretty much disproved within a few hours of the initial furore- being brought back up in the interview. pretty sloppy and biased questioning from a journo

 

[Reiabuzz]

Jesus fuck the man's ego just now on newsnight. May must be laughing even harder than Cameron when he first faced him. An arrogant cunt beyond belief. Go on, vote for him. You're voting for May.

Oh yes he has! He has put socialist principles before electrobility(is there such a word)? The greatest sin known to Blarites, off with his head!!

"Mr Smith said: “It didn’t seem very friendly, kind or gentle to me for Jeremy to threaten everybody who works for him with the sack. It’s not much of an employer who says ‘work for me, work harder or I am going to sack you all’, which is effectively what he is doing today"

Owen Smith is Theresa Mays speechwriter, or just plagiarism?
