Maybe as the most recent deputy leader, Tom Watson should have been installed as the interim.

Angry former Labour ministers have poured ridicule on Jeremy Corbyn’s new year message, after the defeated leader claimed to be “the resistance to Boris Johnson”.

The bizarre address – in which Mr Corbyn also vowed to “be on the frontline, both in parliament and on the streets” – appears to have backfired spectacularly following his general election wipeout.

One former party adviser said of the observation that it had been “quite the year” for Labour: “White Star Line: 1912 was ‘quite a year’ for Titanic.”


That was the only oblique reference Mr Corbyn made to the election disaster, failing to mention it directly even as he told the nation: “We’re up for the fight.”

Instead, he said: “We have built a movement. We are the resistance to Boris Johnson. We will be campaigning every day. We will be on the frontline, both in parliament and on the streets.


“And, make no mistake, our movement is very strong. We are half a million people and growing. We are in every region and nation of our country.”

Kindly grandad is showing his true megalomaniac colours. He is pathetically desparate to stay relevant.

did anyone see his deluded end of year message today

"JEREMY CORBYN is facing ridicule over his New Year message in which he describes 2019
as “quite a year” but makes no mention of Labour’s disastrous election campaign, his
delayed quitting or the antisemitism that has poisoned the party on his watch.

The outgoing leader, who led Labour to its worst performance at the polls since 1934,
took a defiant stance as he insisted the party was “the resistance” against Boris Johnson
and would be “on the front line” and “on the streets” opposing the Government. His
extraordinary message also failed to mention the dozens of loyal Labour MPs who lost
their seats in the party’s Midlands and northern strongholds where voters felt
alienated by Mr Corbyn’s dithering on Brexit and roundly rejected the long list
of promises in his left-wing manifesto.

One former Labour MP branded Mr Corbyn “deluded” and accused him of failing
to understand the damage caused under his “dreadful” leadership.


Harrow West MP Gareth Thomas tweeted: “After a dismal decade for Labour - four
election defeats ending with our lowest number of MPs since 1935, here’s hoping the
next decade sees no more wild, multi-billion pound ‘fully costed’ manifestos, an end to
antisemitism and a Leader who thinks winning is better than opposition.”


And Caroline Flint, who also lost her seat at the election, said: “But why no mention of
the General Election Jeremy?JC: ‘What General Election?’ That’s one way to do a review!”


Former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith said: “Labour have withdrawn into a virtual
chatroom. This leadership election now is in danger of becoming an exercise in virtue
signalling to the hard-left.”

What's he like eh..how much power does he need and how much would he smarm or slime his snidey self to get it..

And the stick may got for clinging on...it almost makes 2019 worthwhile

[“the resistance to Boris Johnson”.]


That's the whole Corbyn story a Resistance party

And he should understand the Ex Labour Leave voters

Brexit matters.

Thinks he's still in the 80s like citizen smith, only no ****ers listening this time now it's him..

[Oliver_W]

bless him. Let him do his little resistance thing and shuffle around the streets, while the Tories get on with governing and Labour gets on with (actual) oppositioning.

No chance of the tories virtue signalling .. they dont understand the concept of virtue.

His weird pouty mouth really creeps me out tbh.

[bitontheslide]

That Corbyn message doesn't give me the impression that he is standing down at all. I wonder if his cronies are applying pressure to keep him in power .... it's how it looks to me

I can't imagine he'd be allowed. Can't the PLP force his hand? The Labour party needs to move on.

She needs to be a bit more refined and dignified before taking a leadership position. Sargon's comments were vile, but not soil-yourself-in-the-Commons vile. Being a woman in the public eye draws enough online trolling and "abuse" as it is, and she's just a backbencher, so she ain't seen nuttin yet!

[Kizzy]

What a surprise. ..

[arista]

Also Lisa Nandy MP
is saying she will stand.
At least she spoke of Brexit
on BBC1 Am today.

How she has the cheek to call herself a Labour MP I don't know... To me she's in the same school as Leeds West MP Rachel Reeves (my MP) for me the most central of centrists, a slight breeze and they would be across the floor.
Not vocal enough in the election either, really disappointed in her.

She has low numbers of early support.
Lisa Nandy MP wants to end the infighting
within the Labour Party.

Surely it's down to Labour party members?
