Her PM highlights so far: "Brexit is Brexit", "have our cake & eat it", "red, white & blue Brexit" and according to The Sun "God will guide my Brexit decisions". |

Corbyn just looked and sounded incoherent and about as un-statesmanlike as you could get. |

Corbyn looked like right p***k there. Are you sure Shami isn't the actual leader? She seems to have risen rapidly through the ranks of a party she just joined less than a year ago.

Corbyn looked lost, ineffectual, uncomfortable and too mild-mannered.
It says much when he, as a leader, has to be supported and guided by Shami C and Emily T. I almost expected him to look to one side and say "Seamus, this isn't working". ![]() Quote:

I cringed. I really really like Jeremy, he to me is a decent bloke, in the totally wrong job, he is just not up to hard core politics, he looked absolutely out his depth. Someone, anyone, please make him watch himself on this video, the camera never lies, and get him to step down, before the MSM make toast of him.

May was elected just like all the other Conservative M.P.s including Margaret Thatcher and like Thatcher she was chosen as leader of the Conservatives. The leader of the party in power is the Prime Minister.

Not always. Churchill was not party leader when he became PM in 1940

Still at least he had shameless Chakrabarti whispering legal advice in his ear - who knows how nasty it could have become if she wasn't there to tell him to allow them to speak?
A momentum cavalry charge perhaps? |

And this episodes demonstrates very clearly why the totally incompetent Theresa May and her rotten party are getting off scot-free. Corbyn is a rubbish leader of the opposition. Certainly not worth 130k per year of our taxpayers money.

Shami Countess Sharabbati, Abbott, Thornberry (Lady Nugee) and Corbyn, the gang of four London-centric representatives of the working man.

To be fair it looks exactly like the Conservative, Liberal Democrats and UKIP were the ones who voted Corbyn, in as the best leader for Labour and and not the Labour Party.

It doesn't seem that long ago that Labour were being slaughtered in the right wing press for defeating Cameron's motion to bomb Syria
They then got slaughtered for only half-heartedly supporting Cameron's motion to bomb Syria the second time he brought it forward (whatever happened to that 'we must bomb Syria' thing that Cameron kept banging on about ?) Now they're getting slaughtered for not opposing the bombing of Syria strange old world....... |

He embarrassed himself rather then Corbyn IMO.
I thought Corbyn's response was the best and most dignified one possible, considering he had no time to prepare and had to think instantly on his feet. |

But Tatchell's message on the bombing in Syria was clear on his placards and Corbyn just mumbled and prevaricated and could not bring himself to condemn the Russians.
Corbyn just looked and sounded incoherent and about as un-statesmanlike as you could get. Also at the end of the clip he is shown speaking clearly and confidently. |

To be fair, as they were all standing with their backs to him he couldn't see what was written on the placards.
Also at the end of the clip he is shown speaking clearly and confidently. And he must have seen the placards when they walked in and surrounded him. |

When you're protesting Jeremy Corbyn for not being radical enough on foreign policy then you know that you're on the fringes of UK politics.
Seriously, how do these people think that anything will change if they put all their energies into attacking their biggest supporter. The Commons and the Labour party outside its Corbynite front bench are keen on action - starting with aid airdrops . But the reality is that the RAF alone lacks the ability to operate in a Russian, or even Syrian, SAM engagement zone - and Obama isn't willing to act, even with the means. |

Now they're getting slaughtered for not opposing the bombing of Syria strange old world....... the 2013 option was Obama's plan to force the Syrian government to negotiate, and to remove its chemical warfare capability. The vote to join coalition air operations, was to attack ISIS. There's zero equivalence between allied aircraft - dropping precision guided, small yield .low collateral damage, munitions on terrorist targets ,and the Russian and Syrian airforces and armies chucking unguided barrel bombs, chemical bombs and 3000lb bombs out of aircraft and helicopters over whole city areas. And the sort of heavy, nguided rockets being fired in barrages at towns in Syria were removed from western armed forces a decade ago because their effects were indiscriminate and likely to be illegal.. |

Corbyn is being opposed for being a serial Russian stooge, and doing nothing to critiicise Syrian and Russian warcrimes.

If Cameron had actually ever intended to mount a serious bombing campaign in Syria as opposed to just going through all those Parliamentary charades just to generate anti Labour headlines in the press, it would have been British bombs raining down on Aleppo That's where ISIS and the other Jihadists were........ You can't bomb a densely populated city like Aleppo without killing people |
