But what about Corbyn eh? 21:53 - Dec 12 with 20285 views | Dubtractor | Remarkable that today (on here and elsewhere in the interwebz), given the omni shambles that is the conservative party, there a still lots of people who's best response seems to be more or less "but Corbyn?". A bit desperate isn't it? | |

But what about Corbyn eh? on 22:13 - Dec 12 by Gromheort | And lose it? That wouldn't be cunning. The Tories would be united; and the petty parties would steer Labour towards a 'people's vote' and the likes of Anna Soubry (which is ultimately their game). Labour needs to look at the bigger picture: how to eliminate this disgrace of a government and save the remaining public services, from child services to the NHS. |
The issue with a no confidence vote is that the DUP will back the Tories as they like the current status quo despite not getting what they want from Brexit, I would very much doubt that any of the Tories would vote against their own party as it would effectively be committing political suicide on their own careers | |

Diluting, not propping up. And of course Labour did ask us to do the same. | | | |

I would imagine a no confidence vote would only happen if Corbyn could be sure of the DUP's support. With Corbyn supporting Brexit and not having the opportunity to negotiate any other deal (the EU won't reopen negotiations just because it is with a different negotiator will they?), what would they gain from getting into bed with a different set of parties? | |

There is more chance of me banging Holly Willoughby than the DUP supporting Corbyn. | | | |

Corybyn show strength!?!? Haha you've made me spit my cereal on the floor. Him and Ed Milliband are an absolute gift. Dumb and dumber. If only Labour hadn't been such a mess and had allowed David Milliband to lead, we'd 100% be under a Labour government. David Milliband is a fantastic politician. [Post edited 13 Dec 2018 7:26]

Stella Creasy. In terms of affecting legislation she’s achieved more this year than Corbyn has in his entire parliamentary career. | |

But what about Corbyn eh? on 07:39 - Dec 13 with 2334 views | GlasgowBlue | Not really. If our Corbynista friends like herbiebore are going to crow about the margin of May’s victory in her confidence vote, it’s an entirely reasonable response to point out that the Jeziah actually lost his own confidence vote by 81%/19%. Even Labour people are pointing this out.

But what about Corbyn eh? on 22:03 - Dec 12 by footers | May's parting shot at the end of every PMQs now is to say a Labour government would bring economic catastrophe to this country. Unironically said by the party that brought about Brexit. Lol. |
Hardly the same. The Tories proposed a referendum which parliament approved. There was no guarantee or intention it would lead to a leave vote. If there was it wouldn’t have taken place. The Labour Party at the moment is nuts and will directs trash the economy through deliberate policies and choice. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

But what about Corbyn eh? on 23:02 - Dec 12 by Nthsuffolkblue | It is cyclical that the party of the right continues to cling to power while overseeing increasingly disastrous policies by hailing back to the disaster of Labour of the 70s etc. with the warning of how bad it would be. Eventually people decide they have had enough, there is some correction until the left goes too far and then the right is re-elected and the whole cycle repeats. |
We haven't had a left wing government in my lifetime. | |

Lol it is impossible to give evidence because it is a prediction. The. Spending that he has promised and his desire to be like Venezuela make it extremely likely though. The last Labour government were horrendous for the economy and Corbyn wants to spend far more. | |

You've lifted that straight from the Daily Fail. Oxford demands evidence to back up every claim others make that he doesn't like. I'm just asking the same standards of him, so I look forward to him providing some hard evidence instead of prattling on about Venezuela like a tit. | |

We've had years of irrational policy, reflecting neoliberalism and austerity. That has ensured a weak economy, characterised by extreme inequalities (across class and region) and too much focus on the financial sector. We can blame the Tories (i.e. Thatcher's failed monetarist experiment) and New Labour (who maintained Thatcherism and deepened the structural flaws). Corbyn's Labour is offering a solution. Constructed around sound economic policies adopted in social democracy, it is based on shifting emphasis from consumer-led to investment-led. | | | |

“Constructed around sound economic policies” That’s highly debatable and subjective, to state it as fact is totally wrong. Do you value other opinions or analysis? SB | |

So if we are looking for investment led, why does he want to put corporation tax up? Why is he against a deal being proposed with trade access? Now is not the time to be making things hard for businesses, only yesterday Rolls Royce announced that they are moving more parts of the business to Germany because of brexit concerns. We need to make Britain attractive for investment not making it anti-business | |
