The election of Jeremy Corbyn as leader of the Labour Party is a
catastrophe, a catastrophe for our political system and a catastrophe
for the country.

Labour has not just relinquished any prospect of being a party of
government. It has just relinquished any prospect of being a party of
opposition.

Despite all the hype surrounding this election, trade union
participation has collapsed. When the new trade union bill is passed a
similar collapse in the party's union funding, will follow. The last
private sector donors are already walking away. This leaves the Labour
a party without a credible prime minister, a credible cabinet, a
credible policy programme or a credible funding stream. In other words,
it has ceased to be a political party at all.

And that has implications for everyone. Those who confidently predicted
the 2015 election would herald the end of two party politics were right.
We have now entered the era of one party politics.

There is only one way an official opposition can put pressure on a
government. That is by making itself a potential government. And with
the election of Jeremy Corbyn Labour is no longer even capable of
fulfilling that basic political and constitutional obligation.

This the great irony of what Labour Party has just done.

You didn't write that pile of crap. Where did you copy it from? Look, you moron, this is a weather group so why did you post it here? You strike me as pathetic, selfish, cowardly and thick as pig****.

I think that degree of flattery somewhat understated but I will second
it anyway :-)
