Blairite entryism: Labour cllrs have been pleading with other parties to join Labour to vote Smith

From last night. @jonnie It's a parody account. Though they are claiming those tweets are from the likes of Blair, McTernan, etc. Apologies. No need. It wasn't until after you mentioned them that they had fessed up. Note to self: Do not post links last thing at night while you have one eye on the O...

Apologies.

Very Blairite sounding sound bites. Perhaps someone should point out that by 'amending your principles' before implementing them, then you are not actually implementing them. Unless what they are arguing for is lying to the electorate to gain power just so you can implement your original principles...

ohsocynical

Principles are nothing without power? What a sad, soulless thing to believe. Words fail me.

Is it Blunkett, that's involved with the above. A registered company or something?

At the close of the CLP Nominations, we would like to thank all of the 285 CLPs who nominated Jeremy Corbyn.

So that's the nominations completed then....

ohsocynical

The PLP needs to come more into line with the unions and membership, it really is as simple as that. If that is a claim about what ought to happen, fair enough. It won't as long as JC is leader. The idea that there will be *more* unity than in the months after the last victory is wholly implausible...

ohsocynical

I think you mean 'should not'. In fact things will now be considerably worse than in the months after JC's last election. Now all the goodwill in the PLP is gone and it will be open warfare. "Moderates/Evil Blairites" in marginals will split, unless Smith is sufficiently close to indicate...

So nobody joined "because of Blair" during Labour's previous membership surge? And why is it only people like me on social media who ask questions like this, not our brilliantly objective and insightful BBC journalists?? Corbyn has taken unprecedented action by not standing down upon rece...
