Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

[quimcunx]

I opted out years ago, does that mean I can't become a 3 quidder?

My workmate opted out of the political fund then became a 3 quidder.

Doubt it.

 

[danny la rouge]

If the election hasn't been called yet, I'm also presuming that they actually can be deselected. The Independent seems to be hinting that: Majority of new Labour members support deselecting MPs who undermine Jeremy Corbyn. Now that really could bring about change.

I might sign up too if somebody can point to a useful set that can be elected instead. The question in my mind is where the labour members are going to rustle up an extra 172 candidates from in a hurry.

Oh god, I'm not standing for parliament.

(I stood for local elections a couple of times. Unsuccessfully, thankfully. Not an experience I want to repeat now).

I'm going to check my union's website to see if I can opt back in easily.

 

[Louis MacNeice]

A coherent political perspective?

Bollocks! We fall at the first hurdle...well I'm off home for my tea.

Post-brexit inflationary pressure means they'll 3.03 quidders this time.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

I'll check mine.

Blunkett: "fringe element captured the party last year" "we need to appeal to good, honest, decent people"

He was so angry I thought his head might explode

 

[binka]

So the line is that although Corbyn has the support of the membership he doesn't appeal to the electorate. Heard that off half a dozen Labour people this afternoon. How many elections has he won and lost since he became leader?

 

[danny la rouge]

A coherent political perspective?

Oi.

I'd be in charge of political perspective. Obviously.

Given the caliber of many of the current crop, I wouldn't worry too much that improvements could be found.

If we pay 3p can we choose who's leader?

 

[emanymton]

Yep. It's open to legal challenge now but i can't see them winning as the part of the rule book specifies that only challengers need nominations.

Wound even this shower be dim enough to try and keep him of a new ballet? Even they must release the consequences of that. The goal here is to force him to resign not to actually beat him in a new contest I'd have thought.

 

[Wilf]

Maybe we should crowdfund a new leader? Here's £4.50, I want my name tattooed on the new bod's left instep.

Rambert?

Sarah Champion gone, bit of a shame.

1 in 4 Labour voters less likely to vote Labour after EU referendum, internal survey shows
Rajeev Syal

One in four Labour voters are less likely to vote for the party following the referendum campaign, a leaked internal survey shows.

A poll conducted by YouGov for the party shows that 27 per cent of the party’s supporters at the last general election said they were less likely to support the party following the referendum campaign.

Eleven per cent of voters said they were more likely to support the party since the campaign ended on Thursday.

The figures will be seized upon by critics of Corbyn who have claimed that Labour is losing its core voters under his leadership.

The YouGov survey interviewed 2013 British adults on June 26th and 27th.

Disgusting how the Guardian now utilises stats to fit its own agenda, this rejection applies to all parties, 52% for the lib dems.

 

[sleaterkinney]

Corbyn has said that he's going nowhere.

 

[J Ed]

Better to lose with a right-winger than win with a Social Democrat, or even worse... win with a Social Democrat.

 

[danny la rouge]

I'll check mine.

Looks easy:

12 Any member may withdraw his/her notice of exemption on notifying his/her desire to that effect to the General Secretary at National Office or the Secretary of his/her Region who shall thereupon send such member an acknowledgement of receipt of the notification and inform the General Secretary of the name and address of the member so withdrawing.

So, email the Gen Secy and await reply.

Except the ballot papers for the election that he'll win.

Then fill this in:

172 to 40. If this was Ancient Rome MPs would struggle to find a place on his back to jam their knives in.

It would have been carved up weeks ago

 

[killer b]

Hopefully we'll see some CLPs moving motions of no confidence in their MPs in the next few days. Has anyone identified the 40 yet?

Sarah Champion gone, bit of a shame.

She says she's still there for victims of abuse. WHAT ABOUT THIS ABUSE OF JEREMY AND THE MANDATE HE HAS FROM THE MEMBERS? Fuck's sake.

Does anyone know how this deselection of MPs works in practice, someone nominates at their local constituency and everyone votes or what?

Or tonight - EX ClP meetings. Or did nothing happen to get into the jobs post election?

There was an attempted coup here a few weeks ago, but I believe it was foiled by timeservers. I'd imagine there's a mixed picture elsewhere, but there'll be some.

When was this study commissioned, by whom, who was asked, and when did it get published? sounds very suspect to me....
