Jeremy Corbyn-Leadership quality?

Just listened to Richard Burgon on 5 live with his spiel to be deputy Labour leader. And he seems to blame their election loss on the nasty newspapers and a little bit of Brexit. Nothing to do with their policies or Corbyn. Think if he gets elected along side his favoured leader Rebecca Long Bailey we'll be in for another decade of Tory government. God help us.
 
Bad news for those posters desperate to ignore any failings of the Tory party as a Labour shadow minister once got her sums wrong https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-51607512

Could be remembered for this..........
Ms Abbott, MP for Hackney North and Stoke Newington, said she would be returning to the backbenchers "where there's an awful lot to do".

Ms Abbott was the first black female to be elected to Parliament in 1987.

She made history in October 2019 by becoming the first black MP at the dispatch box at Prime Minister's Questions, in place of Mr Corbyn.


However the dib, dibbers of this world would rather concentrate on her numbers gaff.

Yes, sadly they reflect the sad state of Britain lead by a cowardly, lying Tory-toad with his errored numbers on buses & new hospitals built. :mad::mad:

I see Diane abacus has stepped down from the shadow cabinet. One step forward for the Labour Party. She said “ she will fight to prevent the Labour Party going to the right” two steps back for the Labour Party. She also says she will be supporting RLB. Who some say is a female JC. Another step backwards. Seems nowt changes.

You seem to be getting your dibs confused with dybs and dibbers with dobs, never mind its silly but fades into insignificance compared to Ms Abacus and her gaffs.
How many of Abbott's Policemen does it take to screw in a light bulb? Answer: As many as you like at £50 a year.

The last time the party moved to the right they mucked over folks pension pots... Think we should remain mindful of that...

And the last mid-century move to the right by a cowardly egotistical nutter, caused a fair bit of trouble as well.... reason to be even more mindful ??

That's relative. A move to the right could still see them left of centre. There's plenty of room between where they are now and where the Tories are. Shouldn't be too difficult to find ground that satisfies the majority of the party and attracts many of the voters they lost plus the floaters.

One thing's for sure, they have to move away from their current position.

when you say satisfy the party who do you mean? because the labour party memembers unanimously voted for a more socialst left wing direction and i imagine still would.

For them to win the keys to number 10. ?

Hence why I unfortunately think they have gone three steps backwards. Diane Abbott counting ?

for me - Long Bailey and Burgeon would be a gruesome twosome.

Wondering whether Labour activists and members outside Scotland realise that they have to win 30+ seats in Scotland if they are going to have any chance of winning a Westminster GE. I have a fair bit of time for what Ian Murray and what he says and suspect that there a plenty Scots voters who might think the same...but will English Labour realise they might well need Murray as Dep Leader to have a chance of making any impact in Scotland. All very well waiting for the SNP to implode - but it will take one heck of an implosion and rejection by the Scots electorate for Labour to get 30+ seats. At the moment there is possibly more chance of the Tories getting that number...
 
wasn't it you complaing about the more middle ground Tory light policies of TB and new labour dipping your pension?
I suppose another Iraq War would be good for recruitment and then they can cause another bank crash, plus change the laws on freeing terrorists early and repeat all the other things they are still blamed for.

Oh it was, but they both dibbed into my pension. Does it have to be a left wing Labour that will sort it out. That aside pension is one circumstance. When voting, I had a choice between what’s best to get my pension sorted or the future of this country under comrade Corbyn. Corbyn and my pension lost. I put the future of you first Patrick ?
