Part of the reason Labour died in Scotland was because they shared a stage with the Tories in the Scottish Referendum. Corbyn has learnt that lesson.
The trouble with a coup now is that it'll open the chasm between the left and the right in the Labour party and there is no-one who is able to unite both. So that'll fester on and on.
This is all moot though, given that the choice of candidates to replace Corbyn is about as inspiring as a weekend in Cleethorpes.
Sadiq Kahn campaigned with David Cameron. Blair campaigned with Major. Most people realised this was a bigger issue than their own usual political loyalties. And yet
"pro-EU lines in Corbyn speeches were cut, his diary was scheduled to avoid Labour In events and any attempts to work with Tony Blair, Peter Mandelson and Gordon Brown were overruled."

Hard-right Union leader on R5 just now saying "Jeremy always agreed with me over the EU, I think he should have stuck to his principles and campaigned for out" He went on to say Jeremy had the biggest mandate in Labour history and his leadership had been sabotaged by the media, which is cute but growing a bit tired.
This chump needs to go. Hilary Benn has just left, probably taking half the shadow cabinet with him. There'll be a vote of no confidence at a PLP meeting on Monday, I hope we get a strong new leader soon, this is urgent as there'll probably be a general election by the end of the year.
