Jeremy Corbyn

Bit irrelevant but no different than Major and Currie or Cameron and miss piggy😁

There are some significant differences between the three scenarios. Cameron sticking it to the pig (allegedly?) happened when he was at uni and before he got into politics, Corbyn and Abbott had a relationship before they became MPs (think that's correct but not 100% sure) and Major and Currie were both MPs when their affair took place. But do any of these stories actually matter?

I'm sure many or all of us did things during our student days that we aren't proud of even if that doesn't include sexual relations with a pigs head. Don't see any problem with Corbyn and Abbott having a previous relationship - unless of course that means that Corbyn is favouring Abbott now because of it. Is the Major/Currie affair actually such a big deal? Both of them were in government positions at the time but if it didn't affect their performance in their job does it actually matter? I'm sure that there are people on this forum that have had affairs or relationships with people that they/we work with but as long as it hasn't affected our work is it a problem? Obviously it's different from a personal/family side of things but if we look at purely work based reasons is it a problem?

Hopefully you can appreciate that I was trying not to respond in a manner that was politically motivated (anti-Labour) as I was trying to treat all of them equally and judged them on what they had actually done and when they had done it regardless of what party they represent.
 
...has a Leader of the Oppostion, responding to a massive defeat by their opposite number, ever looked less impressive or statesman-like ?

It looks like Diane Abbott has been doing the Labour party maths again. Corbyn saying that the government lost the vote by the "biggest possible margin". No they didn't Jeremy. They lost by 230 votes which is big but not the "biggest possible". If one more person had voted against then they would have lost by 232 votes which would be a bigger margin.
