Labour problems are not just about Corbyn.

When I see Labour MPs talking they almost all of low calibre and state opinions that defy reason.
Their stance on Brexit is frankly laughable.

Agree to an extent although I can't see anyone much on the Tory benches who is of particularly high calibre.

The Brexit stance is a big issue though. It is a difficult subject for many of them though. A large number of them are faced with communities and constituents who are overwhelmingly pro-EU. And they don't know how to deal with that.

The Tories seem to have it easier. Even the ones who represent overwhelmingly Remain constituencies don't seem to care. Like mine - Theresa Villiers - she was pro-Brexit from the off and even when her voters were massively pro-Remain, she just shrugged it off.

I still can not believe that those of the lefty persuasion still like Corbyn, I take it you are aware the man conversed with and supported the IRA ? a terrorist organisation that killed innocent British all over mainland UK.

But hey it's OK because he's got a beard.

FFS the bloke is weedy snidey little cnut who couldn't run a bath let alone a country.

Well their current strategy seems to be starting every response by saying that they respect the will of the people on Brexit and then going on to support every attempt to subvert it.
It's comical.

I do. A recent poll came out showing Labour leading among the under 50s but losing in the 50s-65s and losing heavily in the 65+s.

I reckon the cocktail of climate change's freezing winters, the Tories f***ing up social care and the old having to work in to their 70s will trim down the Tory-voting demographic and pave the way for Corbyn 2020

You are forgetting that despite Millenials saying they will vote, they are too lazy or immersed in online gaming, listening to s***e like Adele or engaged in activities such as 'daisy chaining', to vote.

Therefore, if your 'facts' are correct, which I doubt, then you can knock off 66% of the young vote for Labour purely because they are moaning, Millenial bellends.

The Tories are going to cruise home.

Was that the same poll that had the 20 somethings not voting for him, it's linked on one of the pages earlier on.

No don't think so. 18-24s favour Labour by 5 points.

Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.

Yeah but you gotta remember that by 2020, the average tory/ukip voter will be so old that they probably wont vote either. If you factor out the sizeable proportion of pensioners on luxury cruises, + the inevitable frosty summers we're overdue which will hinder zimmer frame mobility, + the 20% who statistically will forget that its polling day, or think theyre voting for Harold wilson again, or just think they are still living under king knut, and i think labour are on course for a landslide.

Corbyn "relaxed " about second Scottish referendum completely contrary to Dugdale.

Tonight Corbyn will lead a Momentum demonstration outside the Houses of Parliament to protest against what he issued a 3 line whip for.

You really could not make this up. The bloke is beyond parody

As per, no insight, just commenting on outward appearences.

Its so nice to be back on Hol and see nothing changes!

I'll bet the Union Official was frantically checking the GT forum every day I was away just in case I came back and said something contentious.... LOL

Time for another short break I feel, I have my fix for the time being.

Don't flatter yourself.
What did the momentum person say. What are your thoughts on it?

People tend to become more conservative as they age. If your assertion were true, Labour would always win.

MPs who have been trying to push Corbyn off a cliff for two years accuse him of driving them....off a cliff.

Now this is gobsmackingly hypocritical. Before he was elected the first time round, they said he will be useless.
When he was elected they rushed to every listening journalist to say he will be useless. They folded their arms behind him in parliament and said, see, he is useless. They briefed against him saying, useless.
They got Angela Eagle to challenge him, but she was useless, so macho little Owen Smith elbowed her out of the way but he was even more useless. So they said, OK, he won a new mandate but he is useless.
They fiddled with their phones and texted that he is useless. They ran to the media and said, we tried and tried even though they never tried, and they decided in spite of all their efforts that he is useless.
Do you know what I think, they are bloody useless...and treacherous...and the antithesis of socialism.
