Arsenal till I die Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 It's gonna be torture, working on Saturday. Hopefully I'll be on the 10:48-11:10 break, or I'll be sent somewhere where I can choose my break. One thing's for sure - if the rigging stops Jeremy from winning the Union is over. Imagine if Scotland realises that Labour will never change even if the majority of members want it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't support further devolution and says that the Barnett Formula needs reduced. He'll further destabilise the labour party as a whole - although he may win some of the no voters who went for the SNP this time round. I think labour need to push for devo-max to really survive. I think it's the only thing that can preserve the union long term too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Sorta hope someone other than Corbyn wins so we can watch them try and justify their position as a leader that had to rig the election to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fotbawmad Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Is there anyway he can lose? Unless there is voter or electoral fraud, then you can safely bet your life on Corbyn winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todders Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 This is Labour we're talking about here. Of course there will be fraud involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 The results are quite clearly going to be popcorn stuff. If Corbyn wins, we can safely expect tantrums from c***s like Blair, Brown and Kendall. It shall be glorious. However, there's been a fair bit of talk about Corbyn being ousted pretty quickly, should he win. Realistically, what are the options here? Would they have the bollocks to de-select him?

capybara Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 If he does not win on the 1st ballot could the 2nd prefence votes not do for him ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 If he does not win on the 1st ballot could the 2nd prefence votes not do for him ? I doubt he's going to get many votes after the first preference. Bookies are offering odds at his share percentage of the first preferences about or below 56.5%. I suspect it wont get passed the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if it's Cooper or Burnham who get's knocked out in the final run off. Suspicions are that Burnham is a 'bad bank' - i.e. a lot of his votes have Corbyn as a second preference, so if he goes out, all those flood to Corbyn, which is not an issue if Cooper get's punted. It's a cute electoral blackmail: Thinking of voting Cooper? Don't because you only make it more likely that Corbyn will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the best bit will be (before election) "Corbyn eats babies"(corbyn wins) "He is the man for us" going to gies a job in your shadow cabinet types Jmo will proclaim he is the bestest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
