  • Are there any 'traditional Labour core' up-through-a-Union potential nominees from the PLP?

    This is what I'm wondering. I think Corbyn appeals to those who want to help the working classes and imbalances in wealth, but many of the working class themselves don't support him at all. Whether it's due to media bias, defence policy, immigration policy or him just appearing a bit 'weak' I don't know, but I can't convince myself that he's ever going to appeal to them.
    I really, really, really want him to appeal to them though.

  • Continuous ridicule from the media,
    and,
    the impossibility of boiling down, 'the 40 year Trickledown experiment has failed',
    and, 'Tory Austerity is not necessary' into a a pithy, (if ultimately demonstrably false), soundbite like 'Take Back Control'.

    What I don't understand is why Labour are so against uniting around one leader to demonstrate a united front and delivering a simple message.

    Tory Cuts have cause slower growth. This is why your life is shit.

    Torys = Cuts

    When you voted out you were promised £350m week extra public spending. Will the Conservatives do that?

    Tory = Cuts

    Schools failing?

    Tory = Cuts

    You, the people are the future. We will invest in you. The Torys won't.

    Tory = Cuts

    Potholes in your street?

    Tory = Cuts

    For the first* time in my life I'm considering voting Labour. I took a look at the previous voting in my area and can't see how they could win generally, but at the moment they seem to be loosing an upcoming election that should be theirs for the taking. Why?

    *excluding Khan as 2nd choice for Mayor.
