No, the problem with the current Labour leadership and their policies is that the electorate does not want to be subject to a communist-lite regime. Simple as that, and they will vote conservative and liberal in their droves to prove it. Communist Lite regime?

Concerned ? You are having a laugh. As for being elected by a democratic majority - he was elected by extremists are who are in the grip of sheer delusion that the electorate will vote for their madcap policies.At the end of the day, Labour is never going to provide an effective opposition to the Conservatives with Jeremy Corbyn at the helm. No more from me about Corbyn ! Edited by Willo (20 Apr 2017 4.30pm) See this is my issue, if you are elected, lawfully, according to the legal and established process, that each of the previous leaders went through, and signed up to, then you are the democratically elected leader of the party - Even if I don't like it, or you, or the people who voted for you. The reality is, that's what happened, and ever since then the Parlimentary Labour Party has done everything it can to get a new leader, including having a vote of no confidence, which resulted in another successful, legal, democratically fair process that resulted in Corbyn being in charge. As for extremists, I think a lot of people have forgotten that Left Wing political extremism its hardly Baader Meinhof or the Angry Brigade.

For someone who keeps going on about people being labelled as racists and fascists, unfairly, you do seem to like to throw out the Communist card. Corbyn isn't even Militant Labour of old, let alone Communist (lite). In fact, the Labour party has a long history of throwing out Socialist Party and SWP members from the Labour party.

Churchill was not all good but at least he defended his country. Corbyn would have surrendered when Hitler invaded the Sudetenland. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (20 Apr 2017 5.28pm)

Corbyn probably spent too long trying to deal with the likes of Burnham and Johnson, when they clearly weren't ever going to accept the Labour party elected leader. Whilst I'm not a fan of Corbyn, I think he has been remarkably patient with the parliamentary labour party, and probably should have de-selected a large number of these MPs a long time ago.

Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (20 Apr 2017 5.28pm) I doubt it, there wasn't really a 'pacifist progressive left' back in those days. That required the horrors of WWII, and the rise of CND. He'd probably have been a Quaker.
