Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

Labour needs to change course to avert 'electoral oblivion' says Chuka Umunna as members blame Corbyn for Copeland defeat

Feeling red-faced? The Labour rebels eating their words after benefiting from Jeremy Corbyn's popularity

He's chucked his career in the toilet

Could we look back through this thread and all posters who got it right get a special red rose next to their user name?

Time for Corbyn to sharpen some knives.

Is Owen Jones the most slippery cunt in the Guardian?

Pro Corbyn when he was riding high in the leadership context
Anti Corbyn when the polls showed him struggling (the media, which he is part of, mostly responsible for this)
Now pro Corbyn again after it's shown Corbyn is popular

I can't stand that slimy cunt

Oh god, I'm going to disagree with almost everyone on this thread. Probably better for me to sleep and eat before getting stuck in

Ah, shame. That would've been the icing on the cake

Well, he did better, much better than most people expected, a moral victory, but, he didn't actually win.
The bookies seem to think there will be another election soon, partly because of the lack of confidence in current set up and because of the hate over the DUP tie up. Corbyn could win in next year or so I reckon.

Like all good satire, close to the truth.

On Radio 4's noon bulletin today Chris Leslie was pontificating about Labour's terrible result - Corbyn "missed an open goal"

Jeremy Corbyn: We are not far off, are we - BBC News

It's good to know this git would not commit to serving in a Shadow Cabinet.

 

[frogwoman]

Yeah I got it wrong. I have big problems with a lot of Corbyn's views and wasn't going to vote originally. It's not socialism. It's not anything close to it but it had a number of policies that would benefit me and plus I did think it was important to demonstrate to the tories what people think of them.

It was John McTernan's comments that really got me. He's been a wanker for years towards Corbyn and left Labour and then came out all congratulatory for him as the results starting coming in. Combined with massaging his ego by his followers placing him on a higher pedestal than Rentoul and Hodges

Scum.

 

[mikey mikey]

Oh fkn hilarious Dear.

Hmm, maybe I spoke too soon. Carwyn Jones on BBC then, really struggling to praise Corbyn, despite the interviewer pushing him to do so.

Still, 6 months ago it might have been outright criticism instead of begrudging praise.

Welsh Labour weren't even trying to win places like Cardiff North, they were running an entirely defensive campaign. It was new members who won those consttuences. Carwyn should be on his knees grovelling to Corbyn and his supporters for what they achieved in Wales.

Read this and thought of this conversation. These people have the words I lacked the other day.

The Guardian’s sudden love for Corbyn is cynical self-interest – don’t fall for it | Sodium Haze | Read, Contribute, Comment, Organise





A very satisfying read

I note other blogs and opinions all too keen to forgive and forget. I particularly shudder at the notion The Guardian has somehow come back to the fold (whichever fold that might be).

The guardian will probably have moved onto Ruth Davidson for their next great liberal hope in a day or two.

 

[Pickman's model]

Hilarious. Do you have your own personal version of English?

Around 100 posts on this thread and you still can’t say anything about Jeremy Corbyn.

I like Urban75, but what a shame that one of its most vocal and prolific contributors is a complete wanker. (Which you confirmed by your comments on the London Bridge attack thread today).

You had your chance and you blew it with your monomaniac fixation on precisely what I meant by an unremarkable post about undemocratic changes of government. For weeks you've kept on at me, pricking, on some sort of perverse crusade. Tell you what, if I'm such a fucking wanker do both of us a favour and put me on ignore.

^That^? Do you know, I'd not be shocked. I was shocked when they decided to carry Dolezal in their arms.The Guardian has taught me to expect everything from it.

Can we change the thread title?

i quite like that it reflects the hubris of the commenteriat and indeed may in thinking sh'e finished off iron corb

 

[bimble]

Q: Are you in this for the long term?

Corbyn replies: Look at me. I’ve got youth on my side.


(says the guardian just now reporting on him being interviewed not sure where).

Was just about to post that - great line.

Leslie was a key player in the genesis and implementation of New Labour's welfare reform agenda.

Good riddance.

Good riddance.

or "the former Shadow Chancellor Chris Leslie" as the Guardian invariably describe him

This would be Chris Leslie who at the genesis of new Labour, say 1994, was a callow 22 year auld. Just when did he weasel his way into becoming a key player?
