And so it begins

He was pretty useless though. Just another suit.

[VHG]

>>> Just another suit.

Blair, Brown and Mandleson were also suits but they got Labour elected.

Corbyn will never get Labour elected, he will be like Foot and just be an embarrassment until they kick him out in a few years time.

Does not worry me as I am a Tory voter so it just makes Labour unelectable for the next few years.

Trouble is "socialism" is fine as a theory but it does not pay the wages it just bankrupts a country (as Labour have done each time they were in power).

[douglas9401]

My dear chap, if the country was bankrupt, where did all the cash come from to bale out the greedy, grasping, thieving, tax dodging talentless criminal friends of Dave and Gideon come from?

Quantatitive easing is NOT just printing money, it's a more reasoned, structured policy designed to.............................

All in this together my back bottom.

Tora: "Who should be the next new Labour leader? - I'm backing Chukka Ummuna.

Gromit: Your only picking Chukka, because he is the most useless.

Good riddance.

[DaisyNonna]

Always thought quantitative easing sounded like an enema

[Gromit]

Will all these pathetic Blairites now resign as MPs and stand as Independents in bye-Elections?


Not on your nelly.

[Peter Pedant]

They are politicians Bazza

I think we are lucky they havent leave their hands in the till as they left

I was on a coucil - elected actually and any appointee we had to put in a sunset clause allowing us the terminate - or else the appointees took it they were appointed for life ! it didnt matter than the elected councillors had a term

[jno]

Umunna quit because Corbyn wouldn't promise to support staying in the EU. So presumably you agree with Umunna, while calling him spineless?

[ludwig]

It isn't a u-turn. 'Mutual agreement' is politician speak for 'He's been sacked'.

[douglas9401]

Ironically Chuka Umunna translates from the language of his forefathers as 'don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out pal'.

[mikey4444]

"Friends say it is 'unlikely' he will stay but is refusing to resign from his job"

It seems that Mr Umunna is a little confused her, poor dear. Perhaps he should sit down and think about it a bit and then make his mind up.

He reminds me of the silly little girl that has a hissy fit because she wasn't invited to the birthday party that she didn't want to attend in the first place !

///Leading Blairites warned the party is now “fighting for its life” as eight shadow ministers resigned from Labour’s front bench within minutes of Mr Corbyn’s victory.///

[steg]

"But friends say he is not resigning and is waiting for the newly-installed leader to give him the boot."

"Friends admit it is 'unlikely' that he will remain on the frontbench because of Mr Corbyn's 'positions on a range of issues'.

But they added: 'As far as we are concerned he is in the shadow cabinet until he is sacked.'

It seems that So called" friends said" not Umunna nice reporting lol

//This guy has only done one U TURN //

This is his second to my knowledge. He said he intended standing for election in the leadership contest and changed his mind a few days later.

[Canary42]

To hold the action of one guy with no power over how the country is governed as justification for all the Government's U-turns shows just how desperate the Right are to deflect the spotlight from the multiple failings of their Party.

Good luck with that one.
