Jeremy Corbyn

You don't need to be radical though. Just point out their lies and economic illiteracy.
 
"He has got no control over his party but he doesn't seem to care. It is only a matter of time before there's a resignation, it's inevitable"

A shadow minister

Hardly out of control really and hardly surprising that those who resigned when he took charge voted against him. Kendall is proving herself to be quite vindictive and bitter, isn't she?

That said, who has 100% control of their party anyway? Pretty sure Cameron doesn't and not every Tory votes for everything they try and pass.

Cameron's problems with his own backbenchers will start when the Country votes to remain in the EU in the upcoming referendum.
 
A shadow minister is someone who is in his shadow cabinet. Someone who resigned when he took charge would be a former shadow minister.
 
The article name drops a bunch of formers - who are essentially nothing now.

Let us assume the story is not fabricated, my second paragraph comes into play. It's obvious one of the four who were on leave are the culprit (does a no show save face over abstaining?) But all the same, they are entitles to their own opinion. Doesn't mean the world is ending.
 
Jeremy Corbyn is to become the vice-president of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. Yet the Labour Party voted to support renewing the Trident nuclear weapons system at their annual conference.
 
Should he abandon his stance on nuclear weapons? He has been a member of CND since the 60's.

I'm glad he is sticking to his principles rather than changing them to fit with others.

If the time comes when he is left with the decision to hit the red button it won't really matter to us if he hits it or not as we are moments away from being radio active dust.
 
No I don't think he should abandon his stance, but he is the leader of a party that supports trident. He cannot have it both ways.
 
He can. He can let his MP's have their opinion and he can have his. As the leader if the biggest of big decisions needs making he will use his opinion on Nuclear weapons to decide what to do. His MP'S can then bitch about it from their bunker or from beyond the grave. As he used Trident as a main point of his campaign, it would suggest the majority of its members agree with him.
 
Apart from him refusing to blow the world up, the Labour conference endorsed the continued support of trident. So if Mr Corbyn was prime minister I presume he would have to accept the conference decision. Yet at the same time he is Vice President of the CND. There does seem a slight conflict there.
 
He can agree but he ain't ever gonna use it. So if he became PM nothing would change really. We will have nuclear weapons that won't be used.

It has to be the way forward that the leadership listens to and is accountable to its membership.
 
I'm sure I read that 75% of Labour's PPCs supported CND.
 
My understanding is that he's a vice chair of cnd, which is quite an active role, whereas the new role is more of a ceremonial role, with less actual activity.

So he's presumably doing less with cnd so he can concentrate more on leading the Labour Party? Seems sensible to me tbh.
 
im sure that will shake the Chinese to their very core and make them change their ways. What a guy!
 
We might not be able to change their behaviour, true. But why should we be complicit in it?

During the labour leadership campaign Mr Corbyn said that if elected he would apologise for the Iraq war, and there was no need to wait for the Chilcott report. He now appears to have changed his mind.
