Jeremy Corbyn Confirmed he will not stand again

[Kizzy]

Lol

the only people hoping that it would be approved are those who cannot wait to be outraged about it

so, so transparent

It looks pretty much approved to me... Unless there's another letter in yhe post unapproving him?

Don't for get the other 800+ and the rest of the alt right wing dross that will submit to his call to arms for the brand new Dawn that is the golden age of boris.

I don't see the problem with getting more people involved to examine the factors behind the historic loss, but unfortunately they won't reveal the main factors away from brexit in my opinion. Voters voting for remain parties numbered 52% of the vote, so there are some really complicated issues at play.

A few more than 20...

More than 5,000 supporters of a far-right extremist group have joined the Conservative party in recent weeks, attracted by what they describe as Boris Johnson’s negative attitude towards Islam.

About two-thirds of the 7,500 signed-up members of the openly anti-Islam Britain First have joined the Tories since the general election, the group says.

(Ashlea) 'Simon said Britain First members wanted to form a movement of far-right activists within the Conservative party that would back Johnson in the same way supporters of Momentum joined Labour to solidify Jeremy Corbyn’s grip on the party.

The mass defection of Britain First supporters confirms the backing of Johnson by far-right figures following his election triumph.

Tommy Robinson, the former leader of the English Defence League, recently told followers on the encrypted messaging service Telegram that he has become a paid-up member.'

That is what their spokesperson is saying that they align more closely with the current govt, enough for her to suggest that they and other far right groups feel comfortable joining as conservative members.

'Corbyn confirmed he will not stand again' :joker:
As if he would even be considered for standing again.
The man is an egomaniac who should have taken his skinny ass off to the backbenches when he failed catastrophically. Instead he is clinging on to the leadership for as long as he can with no apology or self awareness. Disgraceful.

[Oliver_W]

What's the hurry, Parliament isn't even sitting right now :shrug: he may as well keep the seat warm so members and possible competitors can have a semblance of a holiday.

He is clinging on until the last minute at the end of March. Other leaders who have lost so badly have resigned immediately. It's the dignified thing to do.

[Kizzy]

How can he stand down until a replacement has been elected, where would the logic be in quitting before that?

There is still important work to be done, opposition parties don't cease to function post election.

[bots]

in normal circumstances the deputy leader would take over but they don't have one anymore. Given the many disperate groups within labour I can see how it is a challenge to leave it to a consensus rabble to represent the opposition in parliament.

Whatever Jeremy does now will be ignored anyway as he is a dead man walking, a bit like May was even though she won the last election. Everyone knew her time was up and they therefore took no heed of her. Jeremy will be the same

[jet]

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/corbyn-boris-johnson-labour-new-year-message-general-election-a9265416.html

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.”




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

[Crimson Dynamo]

did anyone see his deluded end of year message today :laugh2:

"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.”
