Jeremy Corbyn won the Labour leadership

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great mandate for electoral suicide imo

Relative to the electorate as a whole, the overwhelming support of a relatively small number of commies does not a PM make

Great news!

Goodbye labour.

It's a shame because not having an opposition isn't very good. I prefer the Tories to labour in many way (mainly because they are actually competant and they have brought unemployment down to an all time low) but their illberalness on some issues annoys me.

I struggle to understand how Corbyn's supporters fail to comprehend that the more extreme Tory government under May, is a direct result of Corbyn's shambolic opposition.

Yeah, except wage growth in the UK has been comparable to Greece's.

That's what happens when you have a really high employment rate.

British Jewry hates him and we know how Jews like to manipulate Western Democracy with their vast amounts of wealth and other resources. How can anyone deny this? they've attacked him from day one. You only need to look at the prominent billionaires who backed people like Blair.

Puppet leaders, puppet government.

Especially when the employment rate rise is partially the result in the enormous growth of part time, zero hour and temp work.

Our unemployment rate is much lower than much of europe. My point is, a low unemployment rate is nothing to celebrate when wage growth is so abysmal.

The United Kingdom has one of the highest minimum wages in western Europe, so it isn't that abysmal. Although there might be a large number of people in low-paid work, at least they're not milking the state on benefits and at least they're contributing to the circulation of capital.

Also, Jeremy Corbyn did not win an increased share of the total vote. In 2015, Jeremy Corbyn won 59% of the popular vote, but that was after the first round of voting. If the voting process had been allowed to continue - and therefore had Yvette Cooper and Liz Kendall been out - he would have won much more than 61% of the total vote as he did do this time around.

Socialism has never worked. Never. It didn't work in Venezuela, Zimbabwe, France, Scandinavia, Cuba, the USSR, the PRC, North Korea, Vietnam or Brazil - and it won't work in Britain, either.

Neo-Nazis: because promoting multiculturalism and undermining Britain is fine, so long as you get to hate Jewish people

The Labour elections are like in North Korea and typicall for the far left totalitarian organisation. Well, their stupidity will cost them as long Corbyn is at the head of Labour the Torries will always win and UKIP might steal their former sympathisers.
