Corbyn vs. The Labour Party - Labour Troubles

Guardian - Live: Reports the following in its 7.33post on Corbyn's meeting with his fellow Labour MPs, " ...there was no cheer as Corbyn entered the room or raucous applause when he stood up to speak - a reminder that his MPs are sullenly accepting his leadership.  The BBC’s Vicki Young says: “There’s no doubt that he had a pretty hard time in there. I don’t think it was particularly hostile or aggressive. Nevertheless, it clearly shows deep unease amongst many of the people in that room, most of whom do not support him and his vision.” "

Lets Get Real:

The Labour Party allowed this to happen, thus they have to accept the reaction from the people and the press, the New Labour Blair supporters did not have the guts to have one candidate and for that candidate to win, thus for the next two years the Corbyn machine will run the Party, of course next year we have the Scottish, Welsh and local council elections, if Corbyn fails there he can be got rid off, if the Labour supporters do not like it they can resign.  As a leader you need the Shadow Cabinet to defend you to the press, one can assume that will not happen now, the younger MPs will not want to place their careers on the future prospects of Corbyn, that is political reality.   Fun time if you watch politics, grim if your a Labour supporter. 

The Labour Party and the EU - Labour Troubles

Daily Mail: Reports " Corbyn told me he could back Britain LEAVING the EU, Chuka Umunna reveals as Labour faces split over referendum  "

Lets Get Real:

The New Labour wing of the Party must be in, what the hell happened mode, they could never support leaving the EU, it would be interesting if a majority of the Conservative Party voted to leave, with the support of Corbyn, while a majority of Labour MPs under the leadership of David Cameron voted to stay, its a fun old world.  So let Labour keep JC in till after the referendum. they can throw him out later.  It would be ironic if it was Labour that took us out of the EU with the support of mostly Conservatives!

The Left Wing Shadow Cabinet ? - Labour Troubles

BBC News: Reports " Jeremy Corbyn has unveiled what he called a "unifying" new shadow cabinet, naming his left-wing ally John McDonnell as shadow chancellor. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus " Red " Jeremy Corbyn has formed his Cabinet, it shows how out of touch Corbyn is, the real power is held by men, white and old on the whole, women have been given token jobs or jobs that mean they have to follow the Corbyn line, such as Defence.   It is clear that collective agreement on policy is out of the window, Corbyn's Deputy supports NATO and Trident, also the Unions have many workers who work in the defence field, so their reality might not be their PR view of the issue.  When the political arrows come, the leader should not expect anyone to place his or her career on the line to protect Corbyn, it can be argued that Corbyn is being is used a place holder in till David Miliband comes back or others raise to take his place.   The Conservatives should use the divisions in the Labour Party to move to the centre ground, make Labour a laughing stock, the election of JC has helped in this process, one really wonders does JC understand the slicing and dicing he is going to get from the press, he can not hide from the press, he will have to give interviews, one can see him in tough interviews not doing well, that will be fun to watch.
