About time, he normally looks like he's been dragged through a hedge backwards :)

Why does it matter what anyone looks like ?

Although not a fan of him that much at least he does not have that smarmy look which many career politicians have nowadays...

Well you wouldn't expect someone who acts like some sort of corduroy clad 1970's student union throwback to be smarmy would you... ;)

Anyway someone's clearly very nervous at Labour HQ since it appears they need a list 'grading' their own MP's according to their supposed 'loyalty' to their glorious leader. McCarthy did something similar I believe... :D

Quote:

A list categorising some Labour MPs as hostile to their leader – purportedly drawn up by a senior aide to Jeremy Corbyn – has been leaked.

The Times newspaper says the document was drawn up by Mr Corbyn’s political secretary Katy Clark.

Among those considered “hostile” are Mayor of London candidate Sadiq Khan, former interim shadow chancellor Chris Leslie, John Woodcock, Ian Austin, Michael Dugher, Tristram Hunt and Yvette Cooper.

Not only is Chuka Umunna apparently 'hostile' to Corbyn but he's not 'politically black' to add to his shortcomings...

Quote:

Labour was hit by a race row today as an activist in the Momentum group, which backs Jeremy Corbyn, was accused of branding party MP Chuka Umunna as not “politically black”.

The highly charged words came in a speech by academic Marlene Ellis, a member of Mr Umunna’s local party.

They were taken by some as a direct assault on the leading moderate MP, who was listed as “hostile” to his party’s leader Mr Corbyn in a leaked loyalty list.

And 60 per cent are dissatisfied with chancellor George Osborne after his calamity of a budget.

I'll wager the figure would be a great deal higher if we'd just had one delivered by Corbyn's chief clown McDonnell.

Heh heh...
Quote:

According to an analysis conducted by Rob Ford, professor of political science at the University of Manchester, Mr Corbyn has better ratings than Gordon Brown and Michael Foot six months into their leaderships.

He is however far behind Tony Blair, John Smith, Neil Kinnock, and slightly behind Ed Miliband.

Unlikely to happen as there will probably be a new Labour leader before 2020.

Quite possibly, but as Labour are now ahead in the polls, Jezza ain't doing that bad.

Well the last two weeks has been utterly disastrous for them as we all know.

Probably more to do with the Tories being increasingly hock deep in their own homemade quagmire.
