to ask if you would vote for Corbyn and what area of the country you are in?

[WillyW8nker]

Just curious as to whether Corbyn's re-election means his popularity is better than the polls suggest and also if there is a divide in the geographical location of his supporters.

So, would you vote for Corbyn if there was a GE tomorrow and what part of the country are you in?

Me: I would vote for him. I am in London.

"and couldn't organise the poverbial piss up in a brewery"

And yet managed to gain leadership of the Labour Party against very stiff opposition.

And being a constituency mp IS a proper job.

NW England and yes definitely

No I'm not voting Labour with JC as leader. Live in East Anglia.
Interesting to hear the views of people who've actually met him, he doesn't come across as either competent or pleasant.

Floating voter, have voted Labour, Conservative, Lib Dem and Green at different times depending on election, candidate, current events and political environment.
The thought of a Corbyn led government scares me as much as the thought of a Trump victory in US. God help us should either ever happen.

Oh forgot, Hampshire/Berkshire.

"It's called democracy"

With a press as partisan as ours that's meaningless.

Rupert Murdoch has more of a hand in shaping people's voting intentions than anything JC will say or do, and he doesn't even live here.

No chance. But I've never voted Labour in my life and can't see that I ever will. In SE Scotland, and Westminster politics seem a million miles away from what's happening here where the Scottishl Labour branch seem intent on eating themselves but from a slightly different menu.

I felt Corbyn a least seemed like a man of principle whereas Smith was more like a businessman stuck in middle management and desperate for promotion.

"Labour have lost my vote for the foreseeable future."

So you would prefer a very right wing Tory government to a country run by Labour under JC?

Ok. Just don't pretend to have any principles, and don't complain about the Tories destroying the NHS - you will have given them a mandate to do so .

mini very stiff opposition

Don't make me laugh!! No one had even heard of his opposition until he stood for leader. Anyone who opposed him or his views is shouted down by the red wedge rent a mob, bullied in their constituency, threatened with de-selection...

He cant stand women. he has no respect for them. he has shared platforms with some really unpleasant characters and groups.

being a constituency MP is not a proper job. it gives you no real life experiences. he knows as much about poverty as Theresa May does.

I judge people by their actions not their words. and I have seen his actions up close in the past and further away now and really, he hasn't changed.

you might see him as fresh and new and exciting and untainted but he is a professional politician.

I have absolutely no respect for the man and am shocked really that people cant see the Emperors new clothes scenario here.

"He cant stand women. he has no respect for them"

Evidence?

Just those people who consider themselves Labour voters but won't vote Corbyn ... do you feel better about a May government when the alternative is him? Or do you feel optimistic that the Lib Dems or the Greens will come back somehow?

Yes, Labour party member and would never vote Tory. Ever.

London

people can have principles that are different from yours mini. how very "JC" of you to think that the ONLY principles on the shelf are the ones that you agree with.

you should be voting for him, you seem to have so much in common.

Yes, Scotland

"being a constituency MP is not a proper job. it gives you no real life experiences. he knows as much about poverty as Theresa May does. "

If an MP runs regular surgeries dealing with the problems of their constituents then they are exposed to real life.

In any case - what counts as 'real life'? Someone who's worked in IT? A teacher in selective school? A surgeon? A farmer? A social worker? A marketing manager? Why are these 'real jobs' but being an MP isn't? What do you know about what MP's actually do day to day? And how do you know? Have you worked for one?

There's also, of course, no point having the figures all neat and tidy on the economy if the NHS is broken beyond repair. The Tories don't intend for everyone to be rich!

I cannot stand him.

I have always been Labour, whether I'd vote for him in a GE would depend on how the Lib Dems were looking at that moment in time.

No way.

Cornwall.

minifingerz attitudes like yours are one of the major reasons Corbyn is so unappealing.

the intolerance of other peoples views from corbyn supporters is frightening. debate/dissention is not tolerated.

No chance.
Surrey

Labour party member in the SE, in a blue seat that I cannot conceive will ever go red with JC at the helm.

I don't think I could not vote for my local Labour candidate (unless they were Simon Danczuk, my commiserations to those of you in Rochdale). On the other hand, although I don't think that the majority of Corbyn's policies would pass as even centre-left in most of Europe, I think he is incompetent, blinkered and not very bright.

I worked with him - that's my evidence first hand, close up, observing at meetings. I have already said this up thread.

I am not the only person saying this on this thread either.

Yes and I'm in Bristol

"how very "JC" of you to think that the ONLY principles on the shelf are the ones that you agree with"

If you claim to have principles which are left of centre and you deliberately vote in such a way as to assist a right wing Tory government to get in, then your professed left wing principles are not deeply held or meaningful.
