Ridiculous intervention. Burnham and Cooper must be well fucked off, it's only going to boost the JC vote.

If they were smarter you could almost imagine that they thought Corbyn would get gutted as leader so they're playing a long game, use their personal hatred from the public to get him in then guarantee a win for Chukka or Tristram next time as the Blairite saviour.

I had a conversation today with two long-term Labour supporters who want Corbyn but are going to vote for Kendall because they don't think Corbyn could win the next election (well, he won't if you don't let him win this one). They think the important thing is to get the Tories out; I can't see that as being significant if we just vote a load of differently-tagged Tories in.
At least this came up in the context of one them having spent the previous weekend with two other long-term Labour supporters who are adamantly pro-Corbyn.
I don't think Corbyn is the second coming or anything, but he seems like a chance to at least try to stop the swing further to the right. Renationalisation is never going to happen even if he were PM, but stopping further privatisation probably would. And I couldn't stomach voting for anyone who abstained from that vote on austerity like all the other contenders did.

So many particulars. So many questions.
I sort of get the impression yvette and used-motors thought they would be easily batting aside blairite lightweight Kendall before battling between each other. This spectre of the donkey jacket coming back to haunt seems to have caught them all on the back foot.

Blair's missive really is one of the most infuriating things I think I have ever read. Iraq, the open sale of honours, PFI, the treatment of David Kelly, the destruction of competent and honest government and all the rest summed up in the following words:

pedant fodder
Blair will be even more of a social outcast should Corbyn win.

We should try for a more youth media image nickname than this, in case people confuse him with the town of Corby.

more tea vicar?
that's a huge increase from last week.
Did the unions have lists of members wanting to be turned into supporters that they sent in as a bulk list in the last couple of days?
If there have really been about 180,000 new sign ups as supporters in the last few days, then corbyn's surely got this contest won as the new supporters were around 70% for corbyn, and he's been doing the bulk of the work getting new people to sign up.

Nice man though (ahem) J-Cor is, I dread to think how excitable and batshit-irrational large chunks of my Fb feed is going to remain for ages afterwards if he wins

On the BBC Papers Review, this was posited, that the Unions had " been sitting on a large number of affiliations' and just sent the info to the Corbyn campaign for them to canvass, could be rubbish

Just reading a bit of the BBC's candidate overview:
but hasn't actually done much to oppose them, such as voting against them or anything silly like that.

Surely someone's put Corbyn's face on that by now? I mean, stick him in a bath robe and they're practically indistinguishable anyway!
