Just for the record, not 'my comment'.
I linked to 'a comment' on the Guardian, as it has the best, so far, explanation for the PLP's actions. I'm all ears for the 'official line'.

It's a laughable, sourceless, splurge of paranoia. Ed Miliband has just explained the position quite eloquently on World at One. The longer Corbyn stays the more likely the party will split leaving the country without an opposition. The sooner the party gets behind a new leader the more likely we are to be able to form a government. I am worried that many will sabotage this out of spite, regardless of how their actions may affect election prospects. The problem is people who's fringe ideologies make protest a more attractive prospect for them than action.

I'm going to vote for Eagle. I though she was really impressive in PMQs, she's managed to serve under Corbyn without having her loyalty questioned or being but on a blacklist (other than by that clown in your grauniad comment) and importantly for me she's a northern, working class woman, the opposite of Milliband. Also has experience in government, which I count as a plus, rather than as proof that she is a bloodthirsty warmongering fascist establishment lizard or whatever.
