  • I think we can all agree that Corbin having actual principles is the problem (repeated referenced by Winifred as a critical reason why he is dooming the Labour Party) and that therefore someone with no principles should be located immediately and put in charge- I believe that Cameron is free?

    All labour MPs are principled people. I did not say principles were the problem. But politics is about compromise, and the hard left are incapable of this. And compromise does not make you a tory, this slur is getting really tired.

    Yes, we do have a large middle England, right wing contingent. We need to win some of their votes. Can we turn them all into socialists? No. Can we bring them towards the centre in their thinking by showing we understand their concerns? Possibly.

  • What is the point of compromising your principles to get into power? You've become your enemy to defeat them, and have therefore won nothing.

    If only labour could hate immigrants and the poor a bit more they'd be great for this country. Oh, wait..
