The trouble with all these "new parties" they have no grassroots just lots of money. This not being the US you cant win elections on money alone. They will end up getting a disproportional amount of press coverage if they did ever become a thing though.
LeftyBritPol - Goodbye BNP Edition
Well iirc, the SDP had few members. However, if they were to team-up with the lib dems, they would have capital and at-least some labourpower. Regardless, it will probs help Corbyn rather than stop his "ebul leftism".
On another note, new Scottish poll is b prosming, Labour up to 12 seats north of the border. Our boi Leonard is doing good work.
this guy looks so pathetic they might as well add "pretty please" on that sign
i-i-is he gunna do it lads?

NABZOL WILL WIN
Don't take demo-selfies, let yourself be photographed. Also tbh I would recommend to anons that you go to demos: if they are big enough they tend to be pretty fucking fun.
He's unstoppable as long as the tories don't implode and cause a GE before Brexit concludes and the coming crash happens because otherwise the fallout will be immediately blamed by the porky media as being loony leftie corby's fault. As long as the tory backbenches don't revolt and collapse the current government too soon the situation will be so awful with no one but the tories (and probably brexit) to blame allowing Labour to come in and pick up the pieces as the saviours of Britain in a time of crisis and hopefully nationalise everything in sight.
Tories won't implode now, they will keep things going until brexit occurs: it is the kind of irony that the recent events has made them think they are more secure. The locals will be telling, but yeah they will stay until 2019 at the earliest.
Now what to do once brexit day comes? well IMO Labour should do two things based on conditions. If the tories are about to collapse for other reasons (maybe Mogg makes a powerplay, something else perhaps) then Labour should push for an election. If not then Corbyn should resign and call a leadership election, not because he has done anything wrong & needs to go, but because he has done everything right and that he has needed to. He is getting old, and his intention was never to be PM: but to reform the party into a mass movement. With the new party democracy rules coming into play and a rising ideological movement of the redleft is secure now. If he retires in grace, he will be the greatest opposition leader this country has ever had, and some sexy young'un can take power and win 400 seats. Either way, Corbyn, if the May elections go well, has basically completed his mission. And as long as McDonnell remains shadow chancellor, there will be no revisionism in Marxism-Bennism JCT.
NO
user, introduction in a basic form of socialism in these isles will take at-least 7-12 years, you expect Corbyn, a man who is 69, can last another decade in power? Ofc not. I love Corbyn, he is a lad, but he cannot be leader forever. If there is an election before 2020, he should lead the party into it. If not there should be a managed and secure transition so the movement remains strong, and he can get some rest.
He's not done until the Blairites are gone.
