Because of who i am , i always try and look for positives, i have tried really hard to find positives in him. I have used the excuse its a hard time to be LOTO but he is failing and he is failing badly. Occasionally I feel a bit sorry for him, because he has taken over a party riven by splits and rancour. The blame falls on the PLP who did everything they could to get rid of Corbyn rather than support him. They were more scared of a Labour victory under Corbyn than they were a Tory victory. The whole lot of them need clearing out because the party is dying, it breaks my heart to see it but I cant support Labour anymore, they just don't represent me.He’s fucking hopeless.

Labour was always reported in the media to be infiltrated from the left, but it wasn't, it was infiltrated by the metro liberals and brexit broke the Labour party far more than the EU issue ever broke the Tories.
You’ve called him Keith from day 1.
Only now, after he is getting pelters from all angles are you trying to be a bit more balanced.
the election is miles away, he will be stronger nearer time. Labour tried a true left wing socialist last election and it didn’t come close to knocking the Tories off their perch. Labour have to appeal to the middle ground to have any chance.
It’s not always the leader that people don’t have confidence in. It’s his surrounding MPs, it’s their local MPs, it could be that they do have faith in the Labour Party but are sick of the people who vote for them.He's appalling. As the country suffers with one of the worst governments in living memory, they are still ahead in polls as nobody has any confidence in this weak ineffectual man. He's a total disaster.

Didn't go the way he expected this post, despite the view from many here, the right and alt right presence on social media is vast and he was shot down straight away with a barrage of jimmy savile and rotherham comments.
As he has lost any good favour amongst the left and the centrists are mainy non political as long as they are doing alright, he has little support or people that stick up for him when attacked on platforms
His alienation of one wing of the party and fence sitting that caused apathy amonst many of the rest really has made him a nowhere man
The local elections should be a barometer.
Although they are separate from the GE they have been used in the past to show an unofficial referendum.
I have no faith that Starmer has done enough to make it look like a labour dominated election night.
When he gets battered and Boris grandstands on it Friday morning the usual suspects will be out defending him rather than baying for a party overthrow because he's a safe bet for the establishment.
