New PM soon?

BST, either McDonnell is being mendacious and not fessing up, or he's brazenly admitting he'll gut the party "if that's what it takes". Which is it?

Oy. People still aren't getting the reason so many people are digging their heels in over Corbyn. It's not about moving the Party to the left, or the right, or the centre, and it's not about purging the party of anything. It's not even about winning an election anymore, that time has long passed us by. It's about not pissing in the faces of a generation of young, previously disinterested folk who suddenly found they have a voice in Westminster.

I completely agree that Labour shouldn't be a protest party but that's what it's become. Not through the actions of Corbyn, but when you (not you personally, just to be clear) smear a group of over 500,000 people (plus all those who aren't members but are invested however tenuously in the Labour Party) as one or all of;

Thugs, racist, blind and/or stupid enough to be led on merry dances by the SWP, anti-semitic, homophobes, naive, or otherwise blind to the broad political game, what exactly do you expect these people to do? Particularly when several of these claims turn out to be lacking in credibility at the very least, and are most likely made up by Tessa Jowell (link here: http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/staggers/2016/07/homophobic-slurs-against-angela-eagle-wallasey-ive-only-experienced). Of course they're going to rally behind the one bloke who is standing his ground at a time when everyone else has either f**ked off or is hanging around to accuse them of being a bunch of brainwashed thugs and students.

Politics is about how you present yourself, I agree. Theresa May just staked a claim to many of Labour's centre-left lines. Labour look like a bunch of Kitsons telling people "no, this is what you REALLY want". I just don't see how anyone can look at this party, in which the only member not throwing smears around seems to be Corbyn and say that this is what they want to vote for, regardless of how not-socialist the leader is.

I can't help thinking we might have been better off with the real Teresa May;

I can't help but think of her, when the name is mentioned, she always put on a 'united front' in the sport, game as they come, and her age never changed, she will still be twenty odd years old in those papers!.
