vikingTON Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Quote Fewer than one in five (17%) say that they are satisfied with the way Jeremy Corbyn is doing his job as Leader of the Opposition (down from 27% in December), which is the lowest recorded for a Labour leader since Michael Foot, who dropped to 13% in August 1982. Even among Labour party supporters, under half (44%) say they are satisfied with Mr Corbyn, while 46% say they are dissatisfied, meaning that his net-satisfaction among party supporters dips into negative figures (-2) for the first time since the 2017 General Election campaign. Oh and bear in mind this was before Labour faced a secession of MPs and then flip-flopped on Derek Hatton getting back into the party this week alone. But still, the Mumbleclown got a good reception at Glastonbury that one time so I guess that's the election in the bag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 They got 40% vote share in the last election. I think they will do better next time. Your position makes no sense. The Labour Party is the only vehicle for progressive change in the UK. To succeed in making a fairer society the right wing corporate MPs have to be moved out. This is a necessary process. They have left because they know the party has moved away from them and they will sink to obscurity soon enough because there is no public support for their politics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I wouldn’t want Galloway defending me; even if every word he says is true it’s tainted by who he is. It’s like Tony Blair devaluing a second Brexit referendum my supporting it.This.A complete charlatan of a man (that could be applied to Galloway or Blair). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Which was caused by the Tories, Corbyn has also never hidden the fact that he was anti Europe irrespective of whether you agree with him or not. It was a known known and he always said he would honour the result of the referendum. There is 100% irrefutable evidence that Labour party membership and indeed support has absolutely soared under Corbyn.Corbyn has shown absolutely no leadership on Brexit - duplicitous during the campaign and a fence-sitter afterwards.He could have still honoured the result by pushing a Soft Brexit alternative that a majority of MPs (and the electorate) could have supported. Instead we have had this ludicrous calling for a General Election - he may well get his wish and regret it when Labour get humiliated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s wanting a customs union and close ties to the single market. Is that not soft enough for you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corbyn's letter to May, Tusk's reaction to the Labour proposal and his meeting with Barnier are all miles off their radar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
