I don't understand why it isn't clear to everyone that Corbyn needs to go.
Yes he is popular with the party membership and I understand why - he's a man of principle, actually left wing, a conviction politician, not a personality. That's all great, but he is clearly not a born leader, is not delivering an effective opposition by any objective measure and because of his principles is unelectable to the majority of the electorate.
Britain is not a left wing country - if this wasn't clear before it has become patently clear in recent years. The Labour party is not a political plaything for the left wing middle classes and young people. It's not a campaigning or protest organisation. It's primary purpose is to return the Labour party to government so it can make the country a better place. Corbyn is not going to do that and allowing him to remain in place so the Tories can destroy the country for even longer is inexcusable.
The other very good reason he should go is there is some real talent in the Labour party among younger politicians. I'm fed up with ex-Blairites, ex-Brownites and Labour politicians (like Corbyn) who've been around since the ark. The younger talent needs to be given a chance to rise to the top and they should move out of the way to allow this to happen.

I thought it had a promising title but actually don't think it has much of worth to say. I'm kind of looking for something to convince me that Corbyn Must Go but haven't found anything persuasive yet. So many people think it, I still haven't 'got it'...
