I'm not sure that anyone at all could do more than a few percentage points better than Corbyn, Labour's electoral problems are a long time in the making and it seems difficult to see how anyone could overcome them.

3 times but yes I specifically said it was in reference to electability not politics

It was partly his personality and partly having the right politics at the right time, which is what I was saying.

Blair's charisma did have a lot to do with his popularity but his 'politics' were attractive to a huge section of the electorate too. Unfortunately Corbyn fails on both those counts and Labour will never win a general election with him as leader.

have you ever thought of bringing us something new instead of the remains of a many-times-reheated dog's dinner?
Corbyn played a blinder at PMQ's this week, hammering the Headmistress on the NHS, he must have had voice training, he appeared to dominate the chamber when he spoke.

...שלא נמצא בשמאל
Of course the original use of the term comes from WWII France (!!) but if this 'Labour Maquis' group wanted to be associated with that they shouldn't have used the ST symbol. Sadly perhaps, we live in times when Star Trek is arguably better known than La Résistance. It was naive (at best) of them not to recognise this fact.

He's got past that before by just not resigning. I don't see why he couldn't again tbh. It doesn't look like they have any way to force him out if he doesn't.

I think Corbyn has been an absolute godsend for the PLP and Guardian types tbh, much as they'd hate the idea. They've not had to look at the reasons for the failures of the last 2 elections at all and have been able to convince themselves it's all about needing a new leader. It must be very comforting.

Exasperated, not angry.
No chance, not even if they lose both. He'll stay until at least a couple of key internal policy changes are pushed through, then step aside. Another year or so, I reckon

Yep that's another key point people aren't tired of the Tories yet.

Well the U75 posters that joined Labour after Corbyn's success presumably do. Unless they've decided it was a mistake.

No offence but what does that mean? A 100% of nothing is still nothing
