David Milliband was far more electable.
But the bigger tragedy was that Khan or somebody put Corbyn forward for a leader only out of pity.

Big difference, in my book anyway.

Yes but this time she will only enter it
with the right number of votes,
its not hard to work out.................................

They can count out MP Mark Francois
who stated even with a Shotgun in his mouth
he will not vote for her Treaty Deal.

Every single Party in Parliament has voted 3 times against this agreement.
All of them,even the vast bulk of the now Independent MPs too.
Even still with 25 of Conservative MPs on board as well.

Nothing to do with Corbyn or Labour only.

Labour opportunism to inflict a defeat on the government, no matter what the issue.

Don't forget, St Jeremy came in to the House of Commons first in 1983 when the manifesto pledge was for Labour was to take us out of Europe. Now in 2019 St Jeremy has marshalled his Praetorian Guard to ensure Labour votes for the UK to Leave with No Deal in a Hard Brexit

A No Deal Hard Brexit is what is due to happen on 12 April and we will all enter the new golden age of prosperity, just like that nice man Farage and Boris have promised

Ł350m a week for the NHS

We could only dream of clumsy fecker Ed Milliband now.
If only we’d known the state Labour would be in now i’d vote for Ed in a heartbeat.

He could’nt even eat some pig without getting abuse for it but Cameron could literally abuse one and all was forgiven.

Cameron was / is a coward, plain and simple

When John Major was plagued by the right wing, he stood up to them and even challenged them to run against him as part leader. Only John Redwood took up this opportunity and was soundly beaten by John Major

In the Maastrict Treaty ratification, to get it through John Major went nuclear and triggered a confidence vote along side it to force them into line.

John Major is so much maligned, but he was a better and nicer man than the last two conservative leaders. John even attacked the Cameron government in 2013/4 for elitism.

Dave on the other hand put the referendum pledge in the 2015 manifesto as a sop to the right wing, instead of standing up to them. When the folly of that decision came to fruition on 23 June 2016, instead of staying around to clean up his mess and manage the morass he had wrought on the country, he ran off leaving May to pick up the pieces.

What a coward !!!

John Major was a hero...

Agree, Sticks. Major was a very decent PM and is a guy of principles.He is unfairly underrated.

Speaking on Sky News, shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry said under a Labour government it was "likely" that the UK would leave the European Union.

likely is not the same as will
