Labour Party Crisis: Corbyn Fires Hilary Benn & LOADS of the Shadow Cabinet Resign

Jeremy Corbyn has sacked Hilary Benn over leadership coup.


http://news.sky.com/story/1717625/co...eadership-coup

---------- Post added at 01:25 ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 ----------

Just saying........

Corbyn is in favour of Leave, and has ruled out a 2nd referendum. Maybe 17 million people could reconsider where their next vote goes? An no I never once thought in a million years I would vote Corbyn. But then I never thought I would be told I'm a racist uneducated porper either lol.

I've never been an activist but I think I might quite like disrupting the establishment, an out of 17 million I bet I'm not the only one thinking the way I am.

Re: Corbyn has sacked Hilary benn

So nice to see Corbyn really capitalising on Tory disunity.

He's a great leader though...

Re: Corbyn has sacked Hilary Benn

If this is true, then Corbyn is most likely going:

Corbyn office 'sabotaged' EU Remain campaign - sources

Quote:
And documents passed to the BBC suggest Jeremy Corbyn's office sought to delay and water down the Labour Remain campaign. Sources suggest that they are evidence of "deliberate sabotage".

One email from the leader's office suggests that Mr Corbyn's director of strategy and communications, Seumas Milne, was behind Mr Corbyn's reluctance to take a prominent role in Labour's campaign to keep the UK in the EU. One email, discussing one of the leader's speeches, said it was because of the "hand of Seumas. If he can't kill it, he will water it down so much to hope nobody notices it".

Re: Labour Party Crisis - Corbyn Fires Hilary Benn and 7 members of Shadow Cabinet Re

I have updated thread title.

The Labour party is in Crisis, with all these departures from the Shadow Cabinet, I cannot see Jeremy lasting much longer. I don't like Labour after their 13 years in power and how they left country and various other issues. But Jeremy Corbyn makes me hate the Labour Party even more. My parents who were very strong Labour supporters, cannot stand the man, they think he is an 'arrogant pig'.

I agree mostly with what his own Labour MPs are saying about him, that he lacks leadership, he is a good campaigner (except where it is being said, he ran a lack-luster EU campaign for the Remain side), but that is as far as his qualities lie.

Just what we need. Not. Our leaders running around like headless chickens when we really need for them to pull together and keep us from getting into any mire..

Both parties are in meltdown and this is not good for this country given what has happened in these past few days is it?.

Re: Labour Party Crisis - Corbyn Fires Hilary Benn and 7 members of Shadow Cabinet Re

It'll do this country good to have this big shake up these last couple of days.

otherwise corruption and greed would just carry on. Dave would just carry on. and the island would just sink.

now we have to do some proper work for a change. it will do us all the world of good.
