“2.7 million Labour voters saying they prefer Theresa May as Prime Minister over Jeremy Corbyn”?
When did this happen?
How did they get 2.7 million to respond, or was it a straw poll of 100 carefully chosen for the purpose?

BMG is notoriously crap at their job, they were paid to do this poll by the Evening Standard which is owned by Lebedev, that Corbyn hating Russian billionaire. The poll was of less than 1500 people and if you want to read the full results and believe a word anyway, sunk deep in the results is a statement that Corbyn has a clear 50 pt lead over Smith with those who are likely to vote Labour…yes folks the Tories hate him and that IS A GOOD SIGN

But then the General Public are not voting in our Leadership Election. Once JC is reelected with an even greater mandate and a new Shadow Cabinet formed then we can begin the recovery of our great Labour Party.

Tickles me a Poll says the public thinks, sadly the public unless members will not get a vote, and Smith is looking more and more like a copy cat . I doubt I will be voting for any of them at the next election but if I did it would not be the false Smith. Every day he comes out with something new, now he wants to back up ISIS as if they were the same as the IRA.

God for you Mr. Smith. However, myself and the people I know are supporting the democratically elected current Leader of the Labour Party with a huge majority which never happened before in any British Political Party almost about one year ago. How many people in the Labour Party, in the United Kingdom or the whole world would have expected a coupe against such Leader in such a.short interval of time? I really wonder

So the public think Smith (who I doubt many of them know anything about) would be a better PM but when asked how they would vote it makes little to no difference whether Smith or Corbyn is in charge. That kind of suggests that the problem isn’t Corbyn but the incredibly sad way that the Labour party has been conducting itself of late which is causing the problems in the polls.

I have read your blog for sometime, with respect, before, but I was mightily disappointed by the ‘Smith turn’.

This is another example of anti Corbyn bovine excrement, and a waste of time….

Byeeee
