As said, his two responses in the Commons have been tonedeaf; totally misread the mood.

Corbyn will have to watch his back.

Corbyn will have to watch his back.

That would be his default position anyway. What he says has greater credibility than gung ho deflection from a desperate PM putting millions of kids intomfood poverty.

Who would believe anyone would use a situation to portray Corbyn as the fault for all ills?

..and cone the next election this issue will count for 0% of anyone's attention in how they choose to vote.

That poll was with the over 55s in the 18 to 35 year olds Corbyn was at 51% not that it matters anyway as its a nonsense poll

A lot of Labour "centrist" MPs are lobbyists for Russian billionaires. They are utter scum taking the coin of gangsters.

TBH, I think I'd rather see the next election chances punted if it meant the left of the LP, which is now in control, conducted a thoroughgoing purge of the parliamentary party with mass expulsions and the cleansing of Labour from the Blairite interlopers. A defiant left wing Labour Party that places massive ideological pressure on the representatives of vampire capitalism is a far more attractive proposition to me than a Corbyn-led Labour Government that's still trying to placate the neo-liberals in its own ranks.

In short: bring it on.

Wow. Purge folk in your party who dont agree with you? Life is a minestrone mate. And coming from one who, correctly, railed against GOT ever becoming an echo chamber, I find that a strange sea change.

All those like Hilary Benn, Cooper et al who voted for the WMD lies, have their daggers out at the ready and will use this in an attempt to cause trouble for Corbyn, and hope this will lead to him being ousted as the Labour leader. Equally, Corbyn has to watch his back as Tony Benn had to in the 1980s, still a mystery how he caught guillain-barre syndrome.

To have a greater chance of winning the next election, Corbyn will be forced to take on those that want to split the Labour party. This Russian thing is small beer compared to Angela's window.

The Tories and the anti Corbyn brigade will play this for all they are worth. But it will generally fall on deaf ears as austerity is the major issue facing people. As well as the 1 million sanctions against disabled people by the DWP. Russian money will still be accepted into the City and the British Virgin Islands. BP will still trade and invest in Russian state owned companies and the UK will still accept Russian liquid gas.

Which one?

The one who allows assault rifles to be sold.

Latest poll before Sunday's election gives Putin almost 70% of the vote.

Vladimir's on course for a historic victory.

No one dare vote against him or they'll go missing, his two biggest opposers for rule in Russia, one was shot dead outside the Kremlin and the other he banged up.

And vice versa.

Tis the game. As ever, the small, floating voter marginals will decide a GE result. "Radicals" on either spectrum wont.

But anyrate, this nerve agent stuff. Reckon they tested it on the England team. Seemed to work.

Spot the difference.
