He's done fine in every electoral test set so far. "Unelectable" is the refuge of people who don't have an actual reason he can't be PM.

I want him to stay on a bit longer too, but also want him to resign if there is solid evidence that his grassroots support isn't translated into actual mainstream votes.

Also if anyone is worried that 10% is not much, don't forget this is only Members. Affiliated Union Supporters and Registered Supporters are not included and last time they turned out far high majorities of the vote for Corbyn. Last time Registered Supporters was around 80% Corbyn and the Unions 60%. So he's looking pretty good right now.

This is still funny every time. I don't know why because it's just so quirky. This is a man currently running for Prime Minister, world. (at least until it all changes again tomorrow.)

It's not worth anything, but despite being a regular Yougov user, who they will know is a Labour member, they didn't ask me about the Labour leadership. Instead the last survey I got was about internet browsers. God it was so dull. I loving loathe those brand surveys they do.

In other news, the Home Affairs Select Committee have finally published their report of the Prostitution inquiry, with the general result being "basically just the same", although they do recommend reform of solicitation and brothel-keeping laws.

It's a complete half-arsing of the issue. The report is a good start, though, by proposing the decriminalisation of soliciting and brothel-keeping – two major legislative asks of sex worker rights advocates.

The problem is parliamentary politics. The Lib Dems and Labour left are pro-decriminalisation, the Labour right are pro-Nordic model, and the Tories are all over the place based on what faction they're in. Labour will almost certainly try to amend it in the Lords to include the Nordic model, especially as they've never really liked Corbyn anyway.
