Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle

Corbyn's certainly not stronger amongst those Labour needs to win over if they're to have any chance of power.

Then there are these:

Quote:
More than half of Labour's supporters who voted to leave the European Union would now back other parties at a general election, according to a new poll.

Just 48% of Labour voters at last year's election who support Brexit will continue to support the party, the YouGov poll for The Times found.

Nine per cent have switched to the Tories, 8% to Ukip, and a quarter are not yet sure what they will do.

... and just to add further scope for division in his own party:

Quote:
Jeremy Corbyn has vowed to give more say over policy-making to grass-roots Labour supporters to help build a "more equal and decent society".
The newly re-elected Labour leader said there was a desire to do things differently, promising "real-time" online debates about policy positions.
MPs critical of his leadership should now focus on "making the party and the movement stronger", he told the BBC.

I think Corbyn's been marginalised for so long that he's become used to it...
