While Corbyn’s victory may have done little to change Labour’s fortunes in Scotland, even less would have changed had Labour elected one of the other three drones to the top. Time will tell how things’ll turn out.

Does n’t really matter what Cameron says. An EU exit would certainly trigger another referendum in the parliamentary session with or without the sanction of Cameron’s government and he knows it.

Labour has itself to blame for its current situation. Many of the MPs nominating him aren’t even his backers put him on the ballot when they didn’t have to. They responded to the loudmouths online, people who are akin to Owen Jones and Laurie Penny clones. I’m looking at the likes of Margaret Beckett for doing this to the party.

Labour screwed itself up in this leadership contest.

well that`s a different place to the gleeful celebrations all around the country Labour supporters were having to celebrate getting their party back.

Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Small wonder some cynics refer to this site as Right Foot Forward.
