Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

Even if it's allowed the no confidence motion doesn't actually mean anything. There would be no necessity for Corbyn to stand down, although he would look pretty daft not doing.
 
If it does go to a leadership election, do they still need 35 MPs to nominate those standing? If so, would Corbyn manage that?

That they're even thinking about going through all this again shows the utter contempt these MPs have for their membership. (Guess that's nothing new but you'd think that given the massive kicking they've just had this would be the last thing they'd be thinking of. Still, career and Blairite nonsense trumps the party/membership every time I guess.)

That's the big debate, or one of them, even the MP's dont seem to be sure. tbh, even if he does need 35, he should get them, the likes of Burnham who is clever enough to know this wont do anyone any favours. Although, of course, if it was the will of the members, Andy would also be prepared to take up the mantle...

There is some danger to Corbyn, I've spoken with various people who voted for him but are pissed off with the way he led during the campaign. They could be talked around, but it is quite possible that that is simply because they'd had enough of discussing depressing politics by then and just wanted to drink.
 
I voted for Corbyn. I don't think he has covered himself in glory over the past few months and was virtually absent on the eu debate. This has possibly cost a lot of remain votes. His time is up. He should go. Give the party time to elect a leader and sort themselves out before the next election.
Like the Lexit argument, Corbyn's case was drowned out by the sound of Tories and Kippers screaming at each other. The media focussed almost exclusively on that and little else.

But who do you propose should be party leader? Chucky? Reeves? The Major? Stephen Doughty?

Gisela Gschaider Stuart?

Corbyn's case was quite blatantly "meh". He should either have not taken a position, or been more strongly for in or out.

Maybe should have said this is a vote on which wing of the tory party you wish to lead us up to the next general election, nasty and dim or nastier and dimmer

Nonetheless, he was still drowned out by screaming right-wing prima donnas. Furthermore, the media were already gearing up for the inevitable 'blame Corbyn' line during the campaign. These cunts move in slow motion and they telegraph their every move.
 
Mildly entertaining, the Graun's making a big deal about a "heckler" shouting at Corbyn today.

Jeremy Corbyn tells Pride heckler 'I did all I could' to campaign against Brexit

That would be Labour right activist and Kendall-supporter Tom Mauchline, who wrote this hilarious analysis of why she'd lost back in August. What is it with Blairites shouting at people these days?

A Kendall supporter is he? Haha that's fucking priceless! Yeah because that's what people want in the Labour party. These pricks need to realise they've had their time. If he gets ousted by them then surely the Labour party are about as useful as the lib dems.
 
again the snap election worry. Who are the 50 Labour MPs that would want a snap election?
they'd be happy if it helped get rid of Corbyn. Another election imminently will be necessary, they could even come back with the good old 'this is more important than party politics' nonsense

I meant General Election. Needs 100 opposition MPs on board to call I think 50 SNP MP's would say bring it on.


It is more important than party politics which is why I'd be weary of turkeys voting for Xmas so they can be replaced by potentially out of their depth UKIPers
 
Corbyn has to go. Labour are unelectable with him at the helm. I don't doubt his principles, but his leadership is weak and crumbling. Rapidly losing support and confidence of his MPs. Slow off the mark for remain, he could barely hide his real opinion for wanting to be out of the EU. Lost many voters to ukip and brexit in recent times in traditional labour heartlands. Time's up, jezza. No idea who an ideal replacement could be, but as mentioned earlier , if labour can't capitalise from an increasingly fractured Tory , then they're fucked for a long while.

How do you think ex-Labour voters and Leave supporters will be persuaded to vote Labour again? Who can offer this platform?
