...you may or may not be more or less intelligent than average EO....

These are the 18 Labour MPs who presumably lent their vote to Corbyn to get him nominated. It's based on them abstaining on the welfare bill which Corbyn opposed: Rushanara Ali MP for Bethnal Green and Bow Margaret Beckett MP for Derby South Ronnie Campbell MP for Blyth Valley Sarah Champion MP for Rotherham Jo Cox MP for Batley and Spen Neil Coyle MP for Bermondsey and Old Southwark Jon Cruddas MP for Dagenham Clive Efford MP for Eltham Frank Field MP for Birkenhead Rupa Huq MP for Ealing Central and Acton Huw Irranca-Davies MP for Ogmore Gordon Marsden MP for Blackpool South Chi Onwurah MP for Newcastle Upon Tyne Central Andrew Smith MP for Oxford East Gareth Thomas MP for Harrow West Emily Thornberry MP for Islington South and Finsbury Jon Trickett MP for Hemsworth Catherine West MP for Hornsey and Wood Green Beckett has already admitted being a moron. I hope she resigns her seat on principle that the people of Derby South should be represented by a non-moron. And some of the others too. 10 UKIP MPs by Easter next year! |

i know it's incredibly difficult to get rid of a labour leader and traditionally they're very reluctant do so but surely he has little chance of making it to 2020 even if he wins

how does it work if most of the MP's are against him but is popular with labor party members?

pawras. what happens is they wait until there is an excuse to "lose confidence" in him and then he is gone.
Since he is friends with terrorists and has allegedly failed to act on child abuse in his own constituency I think it wont be too long before a reason to challenge his leadership surfaces. They will of course wait a few months not to be too blatant about it. |

I know he can't run from this

Jeremy - finally a voice of reason.
|
|
By:
Pray god he gets through to 2020 unscathed so the people can render their verdict on just how reasonable his voice is. I'd venture he's a bit more sane than you and a little less sane than that fella who regaled us with tales of alien encounters.

But looking on the bright side. If he did manage to convince the electorate to vote him in he'll be about 90 halfway through so people won't know if it's the madness or alzheimers talking.
