These (predictable) results just state the bleedin' obvious, which is: Corbyn is a busted flush and The Labour Party are now as abysmal as the Tory party.
The warning signs were clear to see at the last General election, where despite having one of the most callous and uncaring Tory governments ever AND one of the most shambolic Tory election campaigns ever AND one of the most inept Tory leaders ever (May), Labour still LOST, whereas in reality they should've walked it. Like any half-decent Labour Party would've have. Yet (and here's the funniest part) the morning after that election Corbyn and his eejits (not to mention some of their far left supporters) portrayed that loss it as some kind of victory! Lol. It was like they were at the start of some sort of golden road to Damascus, a yellow brick road to a fantastic, utopian socialist future. "We've only just begun!" seemed to be emboldened, rallying cry. "This is just the beginning! We're on our way now! Here we come!"
Only there was one problem. It was wrong. And delusional too. The fact is they lost an election that by any criteria the Labour Party should have won easily (and, puh-lease, no excuses either about it was the fault of the scummy right wing press etc etc. That's an excuse that doesn't hold water whatsoever and is sooo last Century to boot). No, if the election of 2017 was indeed a 'victory' for Corbyn's Labour Party, then it was a pyrrhic victory, about as useful as a chocolate teapot in the midday sun.
Because, to me, since then, just the Conservative Party (who proudly and unapologetically show their ruthlessness and lack of compassion like a badge of honour) the Labour Party too has collapsed further in on itself; they are distrusted by many sections of society; outside the London Westminster and metropolitan elite they're regarded as just as bad and hypocritical and substandard as the cretinous Tories. And just like their true-blue counterparts, they are becoming an increasingly unpalatable and vicious political party too ie. witness the vile racism that's now being expounded in certain sections of the party (and elements of their far left supporters too) AND the total lack-lustre action in dealing with it (and only dealing with it now because they've been forced too ie. they've been sussed out). That, in itself, is a total disgrace and anathema to what Labour values should be all about. And taken together these elements add to a Labour Party being hoisted by it's own and ever-damaging petard. These stale and non-results are now partly proof of that; think about it.... mid term, Tories on their knees, in complete disarray - Labour should've have WALKED all over them. Made massive inroads, onwards and forwards. Knocked May and her cronies out the ball park. But instead we have a final, sad summation of the current politcal state of affairs in England 2018:: the Labour Party is now as hopeless as the Tory Party. A choice between Dumb and Dumber. Which, of course, is no choice at all.
