Well at least he's not surrounded by people who do stuff like berating 'privilege' and the public school system whilst availing themselves of it when it suits eh?...

A new row has broken out in the Labour Party over a list of MPs accused of "abuse" towards Jeremy Corbyn and his allies.
Two MPs have made formal complaints after they were named on the list, which was compiled by Mr Corbyn's team and sent to the Press Association.
One of the MPs to complain said this amounted to "harassment and bullying".
Deputy leader Tom Watson, who also featured on the list, said he had received an apology.

Whatever happened to Corbyn's new politics then? Nastiness within and nastiness without...

These people live outside of normal society, I wouldn't treat this as anything other than expected. People on the fringes of politics know their best chance of overturning the current order is to take advantage of events like 2008.

We know bitter dinosaurs like McDonnell have always had a penchant for the nasty but we have an advantage now when compared to the 1970's and 80's when people like him were rife but their actions not so readily available to scrutiny. Now, thanks to the internet, the nastiness which embodies these people is available for all to see in perpetuity. Make no mistake, some rent-a-mob lefties, perpetual wasters and Marxist thugs quite like a bit of nastiness (hang the bankers, murder Thatcher, burn buildings, deface memorials etc. etc.) and will vote for it but thankfully they're in a small minority and what the likes of McDonnell, Livingstone and their ilk just cannot help doing is regularly providing us with graphic examples of their true feelings. The evidence is then available for the world to see and judge them upon yet they still can't reign it in... :nutter:

If it weren't Corbyn, it'd beggar belief that someone like McDonnell could be appointed chief tea boy, let alone Chancellor and that, everyone, is the proof of just how low Labour has sunk.

They haven't been judged yet. Wait until the election.

Thankfully they're being scrutinised and judged every day. Sentencing comes at the next election, if the nastiness, infighting and paucity of policy doesn't see the end of them first.

As good as it is to see the nasty underbelly of labour exposed and for some of it's more idiotic members to also be exposed the fact is this is massively damaging to our democracy and eventually the people of the UK. We all know the next election is going to be a slaughter of labour if things continue as they are, the lib dems are as usual awol bemoaning the brexit vote so the next election has only one real party for the majority the conservatives.

Whilst i like what Theresa May says it's actions that are needed and the majority they are likely to have after the next election will be huge and no matter how good the party huge majority's are not a good thing. Corbyn will ride labour to it's total destruction as this "humble" politician has an ego the size of most skyscrapers not a good thing for the UK at all.

I agree. Sadly, Corbyn clearly values the limelight more than he despairs at what's happening to his party under his leadership. Unless something quite incredible happens, I predict the next election will be carnage for Labour, Corbyn will be seen for the abject failure he is and if they have any sense at all his party will either get rid of him or (more likely) a new party will be formed and Corbyn sidelines with the rest of his Marxist loony chums.

Clothslines of the lectern is as good a way to resolve a leadership contest as any

Question Time last night was excruciating for those, like me, following this whole affair with a combination of morbid curiosity and horror.

Well it makes a change to see some acrimony amongst senior Labour figures...

Quote:

Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell and Tony Blair's former communications chief Alastair Campbell clashed over Labour's direction in a lively exchange on BBC Question Time.
Mr McDonnell told him: "You're the person, above all else, who actually created a political environment where no-one believed a word a politician said."
