I like a lot of Corbyn’s ideas but he can’t lead his party and the country don’t want him.

We need organisational competence to go with ideas. JC has shown he’s not up to leading.

Corbyn clearly understands the issues and struggles faced by the poor, the struggling and the disadvantaged, who with support from the PLP, instead of constant undermining would lead Labour to victory.
Smith is a careerist politician who doesn’t recognise that most Labour support is turned off of politics when there is no clear definition between the two many parties – it is not more centrist policy needed but radical reform and Smith is not radical, he is untrustworthy with a dubious background , constantly spouting sound bites similar to the empty words uttered by Theresa May outside number 10 – no substance and no understanding of why our support has dwindled by millions

There never was a recovery in the real world, and there is not one now. People conned into self-employment without work, on ZHC without hours, and sanctioned off benefits do not a recovery make.
May’s reluctance to press the Article 50 button, and platitudes towards the plebs, butter no parsnips.

I am a labour member, really wanted to register to vote, but unfortunately being on minimum wage as a window fitter, i couldn’t afford it . Corbyn for leader.
