There's a little more to being a Shadow Minister than simply serving Corbyn.

Not true... Owen Smith was brought back after standing against Corbyn for the leadership a year ago!

Talent is not a requirement for those who want to serve Corbyn. He demands unquestioning loyalty and adoration from his followers, I mean shadow cabinet. Nothing less will do.

Being booted out of the Shadow Cabinet is just the start of it. Deselection will be next as he exerts his grip over what used to be the Labour Party. The moderates haven't realised yet that trying to crawl back into his affections won't work. They are toast. His tyranny within the Labour Party is only just starting.

You seem to know more about Corbyn and his intentions than people close to him. Obsessed a bit aren't you:rotfl:

It seems if given a fair chance Corbyn can reach people. The haters will always be haters though. Usually they are middle aged white men whose days of controlling the social and political agenda to protect their traditional inbuilt privileges is decreasing. Smearing him as a Stalinist dictator isn't working so well now either.......basically because its the haters lie and more and more people are seeing through it:-

Lol, a Guardian article where McDonnel "hints" at something.

McDonnel & Corbyn's weasel words are meaningless. They are pushing through their agenda as fast as they possibly can. The moderates are too pathetic to even put up a fight.

Going to be an awful lot of traditional Labour voters up for grabs in years to come.

Westminster voting intention:
LAB: 43% (-)
CON: 40% (-1)
LDEM: 6% (+1)
via @OpiniumResearch, 15 – 18 Aug;)

Not bad for a party the haters on here were predicting the demise of a couple of months ago.

Parties in power in the UK:

Tories 95%
DUP 5%
Labour 0%

Not very good for a party who's deluded leader claimed he won the election :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Long may it continue.

It means the Tories won't be even remotely tempted to go for a GE and will stay for the full five years.....

Corbyn would be a complete disaster for Britain and I still think he will never win a GE, whatever you think.....and no matter what the polls say (they are completely useless anyhows)...

System

A lot depends how and when May receives her hatchet in the back. Obviously there's no need for a GE but if it's chaotic rather than a coronation it will be more difficult to avoid calls for a GE.

I don't want Corbyn as PM but I hope for Rees-Mogg as Tory leader just so the true blue have to watch the exit poll through the gaps between their fingers.

What a sorded existence Corbyn & his followers lead. He & they continually claim he'll be PM shortly. Be definition the only way that can happen is if something fairly calamitous overtakes the country & leads to a GE. Therefore they spend their miserable lives hoping for some disaster or other so he can have another attempt at getting his grubby hands on power. Must be a vile way to live, spending each day hoping for some atrocity or disaster you might be able to exploit.

Let's face it, the tories ran an AWFUL campaign. The worst in memory.

And labour were never really questioned on their economic policy as in 'where's the money Jeremy' - it never really happened.

Yet still labour lost...

I think you mean sordid'?

I wonder what's sadder......an idealist who is loved and hated in equal measure but who is nevertheless putting himself out there trying to change things.
