Jeremy Corbyn - Continuing Saga of the Labour Party Leader

Well let's hope so, else we risk a national disaster.

So many resigning is a bad sign.

That is worrying.....who will take their places.

I expect to see some cross the floor to Dave.

Maybe not CMD but Liberals is a possibility. I can't wait to see where the Tom and Jerry show will be heading.

I think we should have expected a Shadow Cabinet re-shuffle, so are these people resigning before they are pushed? Or is it a protest vote?

Since the result is so recent theses resignations sound a lot more like petulance than principle.

From the campaign, which largely remained positive from his team, I would hope to see Corbyn take a moderate line and inclusive approach to policy formation. In fact he will have to, to keep the party together. He has been portrayed as a raving Communist by the media, but if he puts forward well thought out centre left policies he might surprise everyone.

Certainly the previous attempts to label the labour party as a 'left of centre' party was, IMO, nothing more than a cynical branding exercise - they were nothing of the sort.

If he does manage that policy balancing act well, he could be a serious problem for the Tories at the next election...

However, he could also make a complete Horlicks of it..... Over to you JC.

Well this day was well worth £3.

Another bonus is it will show those who are too young to have been around just why the Conservatives were in power for 18 years in the 80s and 90s.

That is the risk here - some of the 'Tories' who voted for Corbyn as a joke might rue the day.
