Over throw JC or breakaway and form a new party got that you stupid farts, if you fail to act on these two choices I suggest you shut your moaning cake holes and shove it where the sun does not shine.

Labour MPs to get free vote on Syria. I doubt he had much choice because the alternative was to be overrun with resignations from members of his own shadow cabinet as well as MP's.

Mr Corbyn's spokesman said the shadow cabinet had "accepted his recommendation" of a free vote.

Is that as much as they could muster in the 'face saving' department?

Quote:

BBC chief political correspondent Vicki Young said Mr Corbyn wanted Labour to oppose air strikes, but was forced to back down by his shadow cabinet.
The leader was given a "thorough kicking" in the meeting, she was told.

Much closer to the truth I suspect.

He's got to learn that he can't have it all his way, he may have the 'the membership voted me in' line that he can use but he can't work a shadow cabinet with no-one in it. :dead:

I'm still waiting on what the Corbyn Labour Party policies are and wondering how long it will be before the party membership grow tired of him.

It's pretty rare for the Big Yin to be wrong.

So, we're 48 hours from war, although the SNP will vote against, so we'll see how many Labour members go with the Tory vote. It'll be a close run thing but I think we'll be seeing Tornados over Aleppo before the week is out.

Plus ca change, and all that.
