    Corb Blimey!

    Cameron was pretty untainted by 2001 and 2005.

      That seems a bit of a subjective judgement. Cameron was head of policy for Howard's election canpaign. An equivalent would be Lucy Powell becoming Labour leader. Closely associated with previous failures?

        John Rentoul of the Independent has had to apologise for a tweet last night in which he wrote that Corbyn would probably suggest France brought the terrorist attacks on itself.

          She is popular, particularly with people who have never had to work with her.
          Mee-oww!

            And this is how the Sun referred to Corbyn after the drone strike on Mohammed Emwazi:

              That Stella Creasy story looked completely crazy, like it had been made up by someone whose knowledge of Left Wing politics was entirely based on Dave Spart

                It has to be bollocks. Nancy Taafe trying to oust Stella is the kind of battle soft lefties like me would dream of having.

                  Nancy Taafe's not a party member anyway

                    The Standard story has some substance: namely that there might be a contested democratic election for some internal CLP posts; and that some lefties have had some meetings. I'm sure we can all agree that such developments are to be condemned unreservedly as an anti-democratic outrage

                      So, you admit to plotting, eh.

                        I hope none of the people you block-vote in will be closely associated with previous election failures of the TUSC, E10.

                        To be honest, given Labour's performance in Walthamstow this year it is clearly TIME FOR A CHANGE.

                          I don't know Nancy Taaffe. She can't be as bad a Creasy though.

                            TUSC aren't involved in the Labour party, Lucy. I don't know what you're talking about. Neither, it seems, do you.

                                  What I was saying in my ignorant and light hearted way was that I hoped none of the people you're voting in are former TUSC people. I can take it from your tetchy reply that they aren't.

                                  Good.

                                        Anyway, this is the story: there is likely to be a contested election for a senior CLP post. The only way this ball-achingly mundane fact can be spun into something that in any way might interest anyone not in the room at the time, is if it can be painted as related to a far-left plot, which it is not. The challenger in question is run of the mill centre-left, they just don't happen to be the incumbent. On whose behalf someone has been squealing to the papers

                                          So there is an elected post, and someone who isn't the incumbent - and is a bit lefty - is standing for election?

                                          DISGRACEFUL!

                                              Well, it keeps a roof over my head. Cheer up, guv. Your guy's leader. What were you like when Labour were a viable electoral force?

                                                My guess is that he's a bit narked that you and your ilk are working for a Tory victory, I suppose.

                                                  At the risk of sounding childish, I'm not, he is.

                                                  I reckon the electorate are going to judge Corbyn on Corbyn rather than what someone like the ridiculous Simon Danczuk says about him.
