If this Corbyn clone were to win, is it safe to assume Labour may as well give-up any pretence that they've got any hope at all of winning the next GE?
This is a woman who said Corbyn's leadership was "10 out of 10", who said of Labour's absurd manifesto pledges “[I didn't] just agree with the policies, I’ve spent the last four years writing them”, and has already been caught out telling lies vis her growing-up watching her father worry about redundancy from Salford Docks - even though she was only 2 when the docks closed.

Yes, and they all wear camouflage jackets, berets, Doc Martins and shout "power to the people" while making a one fisted salute.
Thank heavens the Tories dont have a nasty bigoted rag that supports them too.

If you can face it, here's something from the Morning Star of yesterday;

I agree with this bit -
'Workers don’t trust parties that lie to them — which appeared to be all parliamentary-based parties as Labour moved increasingly into the Remain camp.'
The Tories 'borrowed' my vote for the first time ever in 2017 and Labour will have to radically change from being the Remainer Party of the Metropolitan Middle Class before I'll vote for them again.

There is one overwhelming issue that has prevented Labour from winning an election in recent times, and it shows no sign of changing any time soon -
They are disconnected from reality.
Jeremy Corbyn and friends are idealists, they work on theory and a desire for a 'return' to a socialist utopia that not only has never existed, hence the difficulty in returning to it, but cannot be created because the UK's, and the world's economies, are simply not formulated to run on their utterly impractical lines.
They honestly believed that you can re-nationalise entire swathes of UK companies, and offer 'free broadband' for a fixed out-of-the-air fee.
They also believed that Jeremy Corbyn, a lifelong career political agitator, could become a leader of a party, and represent an electable alternative.
Now that the electorate, who are not stupid, have roundly laughed at all this nonsense, Corbyn and acolytes sincerely believe that they are simply misunderstood, they have not made their case properly, and that if they carry on, the electorate will 'get it' next time.
Labour will continue its Islington talking shops where they gather to tell each other how Marxist they are, and how 'their day will come'.
Meanwhile, in the real world, hopefully Mr Johnson is savvy enough to understand that chance he has been given, and will act to back up the faith of the people in his vision and plans.
Labour will continue their run of completely un-electable leaders, by choosing a Corbynite, and they will not see power for the next thirty years at least.
