You don't need to make patronising comments about feeling sorry for me cpw. I know full well Corbyn is not electable and as I have said is seen as Michael Foot MkII outside of his core support.cpwigan wrote:I feel sorry for you Dave. Corby is a patsy for McDonald and the rest of the London lunatics. He has no policies, he never did have and simply does what he is told by McDonald. Coryn never had any coherent ideas / policies and was siply a single issue politician repeatedly voting againsy Government policy be it Tory or Labour.
If Corbyn is serious form The Momentum Political Party and leave Labour to decent working class people who have no desire to see the Tory government kep in power by clueless Corbyn.
Here is a ? Do you think he can automatically stand or does he need the votes of MPs. By my reckoning, he requires their support!
I also know that the likes of Angela Eagle are equally unelectable. She voted for tuition fees and has abstained on votes such as IDS's workfare program for example along with quite a few other Tory inspired policies. That sort of Labour politician won't persuade those in the North to return to Labour or be seen as offering anything different to the Tories elsewhere.
As to your question I have no idea if he can stand or not. If he gets on the ballot paper he will probably win and so perhaps there will be another split in the Labour party like the SDP years ago.
