Genuinely not being intentionally patronising but I don't believe you actually want a 'labour' government, that would be elected on its policies not on personalities, and the threat of a grid lid collector with an offensive beard.
By 'knowing' he would 'fail', and he could not 'beat May', displays either disdain or naive disinterest because 'he' is not the labour party, but some on the right of the party acquiesced to that scenario, and 'he' did not take on May, he took on Murdoch, the Barclays, Branson and all the faceless, chinless wondless who 'whisper in dark corridors and determine your future for you'.
Milliband got it. But the labour right couldn't throw anti semitism at him now could they? But they threw 'Marxist' at him, and his dad.
The only one who got an easy ride, and guess what? He's the godfather to one of Murdoch's kids.
There is more responsibility on the labour quisling right than thete is on the 'radical far left' of housewives, people who work but still get benefits, the sick not allowed PIP, the disabled forced to 'work', and everybody else that doesn't get a mention by Tom Watson or Luciana Berger et al.
Conscience eh? Mine's crystal.

We want the same things but I think a different game has to be played to get them. The poverty in this wealthy country is beyond a disgrace, on that I think we can agree.

Looking forward to the Tories' anti-muslim inquiry 'soon'.

Some former low level employees of the Labour Party claim there is an anti-Semitism problem in the party. Cue major outrage by national newspapers for months on end and a Panorama investigation.

The former chair of the Tory party and a Baroness, no less, say that party is riddled with Islamophobia. Not a peep.

The Labour Party binning the left wing to one side. That just sounds a bit messed up to me. If they want a centrist party wouldn't the Lib Dems make more sense?

It is as stupid as the left side trying to bin any centrist MPs/supporters. The only way the Tories will be kicked out is if petty views are parked to one side and the focus is put purely into winning the battle out there. Both sets of voters need to be appeased or it will be 5 more years of opposition.

Or just have a civil war and like the early years of Corbyn were dogged with bad press regarding in-fighting, this variant will suffer the same fate. The press won't need a second invitation to ram home that Labour aren't fit for government.

Heads need banging together mate. How can we fight the Tories when we fight each other with so much anger? No one in the party should be feeling triumphant or vindicated. We've just lost our 4th election in a row.
