Quote:
Jeremy Corbyn’s frontbenchers are planning to hide in their constituencies and leave the left-winger to fight the election alone.

Nearly all shadow cabinet ministers have safe Labour seats so would normally spare time to help with the party’s national campaign.

But sources close to top shadow ministers say they are reluctant to campaign for their unpopular leader.

They are resigned to being hammered on polling day and want to avoid the humiliation of campaigning for the hard-left leader.

A leading Shadow Cabinet source told The Sun: “We plan to hide in our constituencies and leave Jeremy alone with the national campaign.”

So they've hung Jezzer out to dry then.

You can have your own beliefs and also choose not to impose them on others. Sort of the point of being a liberal no?

Of course, but he has now pronounced publicly in contradiction of his faith.

homophobia now to top it off antisemitism



EXCLUSIVE: Lib Dems forced to suspend election candidate who compared Israeli prime minister to HITLER on Facebook and claimed Tory and Labour run by 'Zionist paymasters'

Ashuk Ahmed, 51 – who was given an award at the House of Lords for 'inspirational role models for British Muslims' – will no longer contest the seat, a Liberal Democrat spokesman confirmed.
Mr Ahmed posted a series of posts comparing Jews to Nazis, suggesting that Zionists controlled 'half the world' and claiming that Labour and the Conservatives were controlled by 'Zionist paymasters

there's a bad smell coming from this party

Oh dear.

I can't undertand why Farron didn't just state the Christian teaching and add that all men/women are gifted with free will. It would have covered his belief but left choices open to others (whose votes he seems so keen to attract).

He didn't want the question to open up I think. Now he's going to get it all: abortion, creationism, role of women etc. Naive of him to think this wouldn't be an issue when he took the leadership.

For sure. But we all know you get what's thrown at you; he should have too. I think a Clegg-style "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry" must be in the offing.
