God help us and i'm a Labour voter! The Tories will be in power for a generation which makes me despair for the sick,the disabled and the poorer in our society.
I think a lot of people have had enough of the choice between neo liberal Labour and neo liberal Labour though mate. What hope was there for us when the Plp couldn't even bring itself to vote against the welfare bill. I voted for Corbyn because I've had enough of Labour moving to the the right.
RacistRachel Reeves quits the front bench too
Abott supporting Corbyn though...dont like her, hope she doesn't get on the front bench
I do think it pretty disasterous for the party. He'll be ripped to shreds by the press + tories - he's never been on the front bench, shadow or anything. It will be a real test. I'm just not sure that the answer against the Tories is to go further left [except for scotland] but it won't attract the people who we need to attract to win an election. I fear that the party will end up just talking to itself and associated unions congratulating itself, whilst it's ignored by the rest of the country. Hope not tho.
Well labour lost the last two elections by being a centre right party so maybe its time something else is tried.
I'm looking forward to seeing Corbyn at the despatch box. His style in the election has been one of staying calm and not getting personal. We're used to seeing the PM and ol tearing strips off each other at the despatch box so it'll be interesting to see the new dynamic.
