Previously when I mentioned the polls people said YEAH BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW MANNNN CORBYN MIGHT BE AMAZING.
This isn't really the same point anyway - this one shows Labour behind even in London, which is truly disastrous and much worse than previous polls I'm afraid.
Smith's not my man, at least not yet, I know little about him. I don't think the fact people hadn't heard of him till recently is necessarily a problem though. I know that Corbyn definitely isn't.
Hold on, let me take a look at the list of candidates.
Ah. Er...
That's the problem though isn't it? Why are only two people standing? Why it it a binary choice? Why the lack of any other decent candidates?
Fox-

Because to have any hope of removing Corbyn there has to be only one candidate, otherwise the vote will be split.

Pretty much where I stand now.
I've gone from pro-Corbyn to anti, just by watching him grow more petty. The mass deselection warning seals it for me. My local MP is actually wonderful, the best this area has had in living memory, the threat to deselect means I'll vote against Corbyn now.

Agreed. @Fox you've made your point about the polls again and again. Time to start coming up with some positive options / alternatives. If Smith's your man, sell him to us.
