Maybe that's the way out of this mess. General election contest where candidates declare their remain/leave intentions, and if a remain candidate wins they can refrain from triggering article 50 because obviously people wouldn't have voted for them in the election if they wanted to leave.

peanut- posted:Why is there this conviction that the Labour members still support Corbyn? Outside of the confines of this thread my impression is that most of the people who voted for him have given up hope of him suddenly becoming competent and realised what a massive mistake it was. Every labour member I know supports him and wants the PLP to fall in line or quit.

stephenfry posted:what the gently caress does anyone vaguely left have to be disillusioned by when it comes to Corbyn? I agree with the sentiment, since he could've gotten much more done with his MPs backing, but here's a guy tweeting a list of things Corbyn's done as leader.

domhal posted:If the vote of no confidence doesn't really do anything, what ability does the PLP have to trigger a Labor leadership election? Well, they can certainly get 50 MPs to nominate an alternative leader. The trouble is that Corbyn will defeat them in the membership vote.

tekz posted:If Corbyn sticks around despite the no confidence, he's clearly uninterested in the will of the people he claims to represent. The vote doesn't represent the "will of the people". It represents some leftover Blairites who lost the leadership election and can't let that go. Edit: poo poo, you're a homophobe and a troll. Guess you got me. Good job.

Deptfordx posted:I acknowledge all that. I just don't see how day to day, someone can actually lead the party in the House, if 80% of them have no faith in him and just want him gone. You get to the next general election (it could be closer than you think), deselect the Blairites, and the membership elect some democratic socialists instead.

ThomasPaine posted:Most importantly though, I'll take a weakened but socialist Labour over a powerful centre-right Labour any day. There is zero point in them getting into government if they're a hollow shell aping Tory policy but putting on a sad face while they do it. This. I'll definitely leave the party if the coup succeeds.

Can you backstab someone you worked with for so long so brazenly and still get voted in as leader of the tory party? I would've thought it would kill your popularity, but I've never really understood tories. Perhaps Murdoch ordered the assassination to clear the way for May.

Vitamin P posted:Just because it's becoming a bit tedious, we aren't terribly attached to Corbyn, it's not a dear leader thing, it's a left wing policies being allowed in the left wing party thing. If Abbott or McDonnell were replacing him that would be grand. The personal attacks against him won't land at all. I don't think so, actually. It would prove that the utterly despicable behaviour we've seen from the PLP is effective and should be rewarded. It isn't, and it shouldn't be. Edit: I agree with the rest of the quoted statement wholeheartedly.

Ewan posted:I honestly don't know. Leadership of the labour party seems to be a poison chalice at the moment. While I say Corbyn is not cut out to be leader, that is not purely a criticism of him. Leadership has two parts - the leader and the led. I expect the vast majority of other potentials are also not cut out for it. But, some of the natural (and necessary) traits of a good political leader, such as charisma and charm, are specifically missing from Corbyn's toolset. Any left-wing leader would get the same treatment Corbyn would. They're not against him, they're against the idea of the Labour party being left-wing.

I'd say it's less that democracy is a problem and more that rich people own all the media and use it to spread racist propaganda leading to poor people voting against their own best interests. So it's more that money is inherently anti-democratic. One man one vote, but I get a giant megaphone that reaches millions of people and you get to cup your hands and shout.
