I thought she had moved into No 11, as it was deemed the flat above No 10 was too small. The shame of it all

Hearing a debate on the radio and the Tories are on course for a massive landslide victory at the next general election. Labour and the liberals will be wiped out, only the SNP will be left intact making them the main opposition to the Tories.

If this comes true we could see the downfall of Labour and Liberals as they pass into the history books. So will 2020 see the rise of UKIP and the Green Party?

So it seems currently Labour is taking Labour to the Court of Appeal to stop Labour letting Labour members vote in Labour's Leadership contest ?

Nicola Sturgeon has welcome a proposal which could allow Scotland to retain its membership of the EU as England and Wales withdraw

First of all when Greenland withdrew it was the EEC back then, what we have now is the EU so do the same rules stand. And how is Scotland going to pay its weekly contribution to the EU? I just get this feeling wee bam Sturgeon may not be in possession of all the facts.

I would say she has a fair point. Old JC seems to strut around like some sort of film star which makes him look silly.

When he first became leader I was thinking he would make a moderate good interim leader while Labour got it's house in order and limited the damage loosing the 2020 general election. Some time after 2020 once Labour was up and running again old JC would step aside for some one who is more PM material for the 2025 general election.

But now clearly its all gone to pot in Labour and I just can not see them ever coming back into power for another 15 to 20 years.

Don't know about the 15-20 years interval but for the immediate future, with Brexit and all, maybe it is the prudent thing to do ...

Jeremy Corbyn has won the backing of 85% of Labour's grassroots supporters, cementing his position as favourite to win the leadership contest.

The day dream continual's to ignore the hard cold fact that Labour will not win in 2020.

She started it all by being one of those who nominated him in the first place.
