Brits love an underdog, it's been spun exactly how they want it, my concern is if you think that's a good thing or not? :hehe:

I've not yet been back a strawberry season (Twitter can still not believe their luck) and you're concerned already? Was it something that I said?
Okay to be serious for a bit, yes I do. Snakes shed their skins, moths turn into butterflies and all political parties reach a point where they need to re-invent themselves. As an experiment Blairism was an unmitigated disaster, that hi-jacked a complete party, repackaged it, threw away its core values and principles, tossed the Palestinian cause for self-determination into the trash cart and embraced full-blown corporate Zionism. People were sick of seeing MP candidates selected from an approved list, mentored to, and then parachuted, like Stephen Kinnock was, into seats that could be won by a corpse with a red rosette on. They're fed up with not being able to interview and select candidates that are policy and principle driven, as opposed to using their constituency as a convenient stop-off point on the way to a gravy train job after politics has been disposed of. What we're seeing (in my humble opinion) is a realignment of the whole Labour party, with 172 old guard Blairites, some more than others, all joining in to sabotage Jeremy Corbyn's journey against the wishes of hundreds of thousands who have recently joined Labour precisely for what he represents. Nothing succeeds like success, so the old adage goes and when you have momentum it is easier to keep invigorating attracting and energizing people to something that they have some faith in.
"trust in the mainstream media’s (MSM) ability to report fairly on Corbyn is at an all-time low and his supporters were voicing their disdain about this. In doing so, they were expressing that, somehow, control of the narrative needs to be taken back."

At least Owen Smith cannot be accused of being an original thinker, unlike Jeremy Corbyn.

Oh, if that leader is as inept (and I'm just commenting on his general performance in the job so far and not saying anything about his politics there) as Corbyn has been so far, I would have thought Murdoch would be delighted to see him win another leadership election.
Corbyn's consistent and well used to looking after himself.

3 steps ahead, I like your thinking. :-)
You can keep trying but you wont change my view of him, if you agree with that statement from Henry Makow I'm not sure why you would want to support him tbh, are you going to be getting one of these t-shirts and shouting 'Viva La Revolution' next? I will have to put you on ignore if you do :hehe:

I said that I've read Henry and have known about him for years. That doesn't mean that I agree with everything he comes out with, in the same way as you and I don't agree with everything. I have not read any specific statement from him on Corbyn, I wouldn't have thought it was his thing, but who knows.
I make certain allowances with women and try to be slightly more subtle with them. For example, had you read between the lines of Yep! I agree, you would have realised that I was employing it in much the same as Mrs Brown employs the use of 'that's nice' when she's dealing with someone who she can't be arsed to explain things to. :hehe::hehe::hehe:
Here's a video of thousands of people turning out to tell Jeremy that he's completely un-electable and to go home...
