Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

Things get worse for Labour in Scotland

Labour slip backwards in Scotland as SNP set to regain seats lost in 2017 vote

 

[Rosemary Jest]

It was Andrew Griffiths, MP for Burton on Trent. The coward did it crouched down behind the bench so the deputy speaker could not see him. I commented on his Facebook page and got banned within minutes but he is taking a kicking on Twitter.

This fucker has just resigned after being caught sending filthy texts to a couple of his constituents.

He boasted about making someone dress as a pig and then having sex with them.

Sounds like a Cameronite to me...

Ah, the small business Member.

John McDonnell unveils major revival plan for local communities under Labour government ahead of Hastings visit
After years of austerity the Shadow Chancellor says he and Corbyn will return power to the local communities and "left-behind" towns who have suffered most

John McDonnell unveils plan to revive local communities under Labour government

Good stuff, i hope John goes for leader if JC packs it in

 

[treelover]

Mr McDonnell said: “When Labour goes into government, everyone goes into government.

He really knows how to get a message across.

 

[Poi E]

It's bullshit. Nothing tangible about enhancing the powers of the Welsh or Scottish government and nothing to devolve powers to English regions.

 

[Whagwan]

So it turns out the staffers at Labour HQ were targetting the leadership teams facebook ads directly at Corbyn and team whilst running their own personal campaign independently:

Corbyn supporters attack Labour moderates for 'using targeted Facebook ads to trick him during general election'

that prick woodcock has resigned to become an independant.

Woodcock says he is resigning primarily because Corbyn has not appointed an independent investigator to rule on his disciplinary case and because he thinks the process has been manipulated against him for factional purposes (ie, because he is a Corbyn critic.)

whats his disciplinary case about? - oh yeah - just checked the link - pervy text messages to former aide.

According to the link in your post it's sexual harassment

 

[DotCommunist]

sexual harrasment

hodges apparently called c-byn a racist anti semite to his face as well

 

[redsquirrel]

What are the chances that he's got the guts so take the Hundreds and stand as an independent? 0.001%

a "fucking racist and anti-semite"

 

[DotCommunist]

If I have this right its because labour won't take up wholesale that particular wording on anti semitism that manages to define criticism of the state of israel as anti-semitism.

 

[teqniq]

I like this explanation more

 

[not-bono-ever]

I don’t think mr woodcock understands what hard left actually means

Me neither, good riddance anyway!

 

[Smokeandsteam]

What does it mean? In practice?

 

[Mr Moose]

If I have this right its because labour won't take up wholesale that particular wording on anti semitism that manages to define criticism of the state of israel as anti-semitism.

The definition is apparently used by a fair few public organisations. Is there evidence that it is actually used to shut down criticism?

On the one hand I wonder why on Earth Labour are risking this once again rising to the surface and why they don’t simply adopt the IHRA definition, but it does seem that everyone who wants it to adopt it reacts by calling anyone in Labour who disagrees antisemetic.

what polls are these ?
The same one who said he would win last time, Brexit would not happen ?
Or the ones who said Clinton would walk it
Amazed how so many people take any notice of these so called polls

 

[redsquirrel]

Between Jan 2017 and the election a single (published) UK opinion poll gave Labour a higher share vote than the Tories. I know it's difficult for you but try to be such an ignorant berk.

There's definitely people jumping on it with an agenda, but it's also a response to an NEC ruling from yesterday, and there's many people involved who are genuinely bothered.

like theresa may did in 2017 when the polls were predicting a much increased tory majority?

wasn't that billbond's point?

(that said, for all the talk of inaccurate polls, they're still on average as accurate as they've ever been, which is fairly accurate)

 

[Kaka Tim]

also - it does not matter if the polls are "accurate" - they have a political effect - a run of bad polls for the tories will put the shits up them - they certainly wont ignore them cos "polls are bollocks" especially as they pay for some of them.

Given the Civil War on Europe, a dead PM walking, mass Ministerial resignations, the sell out of leave voters, crime, cuts, austerity etc I'd imagine the Tories are delighted to be 7 points behind and will expect to be level pegging ir even ahead once they do May in.

I read the 'he' in this as referring to Corbyn.

The same one who said he would win last time

Maybe something got lost in translation

Like, for example an lot of Jewish people. Labour doesn’t seem to be able to narrow this increasing divide.
