AIBU in thinking JC should resign?

[QuiteLikely5]

He's made a mockery of the Labour Party and won votes by creating a manifesto that the country could not afford to deliver!!!

Resign JC !!!

Nope Theresa should resign

Yabu. That man did good!

How has he made a mockery? He got a higher percentage of the votes than Blair did in the 2005 landslide.

He's not resigning, he's only just getting started, there's plenty more to see yet

Did you wake up in an alternate universe QuiteLikely? Away back tae bed love!

No, of course he shouldn't resign.

Yes, the overspending on this manifesto programme was rather worrying, but next time round there is an opportunity to narrow or even eliminate that, but with the same thrust of priorities. And there is no reason whatsoever to think that would be a liability.

I strongly prefer parties with principles, because I can respect them even when I don't agree with them.

If by some horror that prehistoric nightmare did get power, it would be interesting to look back at these threads in a few years' time when the economy is utterly knackered and the country has no investment or high earners left to fleece and see if people still think he was a great idea. People have short memories.

He only got those votes due to his undeliverable manifesto!

He fooled all of his supporters - he knew he would never win hence creating an absurd manifesto just to win seats

YABU. I like him. All my family hate him because of his "past".

Resign? The man's played an absolute blinder.

Erm, why? Labour gained more seats and a larger percentage of the vote than they did in the last two elections.

Are you on glue?

Err...are you serious, OP??

JC has the rough principles and has done a lot to get the youth up and out voting

I'drather a leader who can't quote achieve all his positive goals than a leader who has negative goals!

Of course not - he has taken 29 seats and has achieved an overall swing towards Labour - all this in the face of a hostile press.
A few weeks ago we were talking about Labour losing 70 seats.
I think with some hard work and a revised media strategy Labour could win the next Election.

How has he made a mockery of the Labour Party? Their vote share is better than it was when Blair had his second landslide? He now has the backing of the party and has clearly motivated the electorate - obviously there hasn't been a clear winner but it's fairly obvious which party ran a better campaign, time will tell whether the manifesto is unacheivable (if they can form a government) but what's clear is people don't have faith in the current government or what they claim to be able to deliver!

He is unassailable now and will retire when he's ready.

What if there is another general election soon, he might actually win.

Yes he has got the youth voting by saying he was going to abolish tuition fees!

He's unstable and not a leader

I wasn't keen and I didn't think people would actually vite for him. I was clearly way off. I'd prefer Corbyn over May any day so yabu.

His manifesto was fully costed. If he should resign so should Theresa May who has massively fucked up and put us in a weaker position for brexit negoatations. Stupid woman.

good one, OP

He's unstable and not a leader

Are you watching the same election as the rest of us?

God know. He's likely to be the next PM.

HTH.

Yes it comes back to the campaign but that's just a campaign TM has brought a good level of national stability to this country unlike him with his radical policy ideas

Yabu

Is this a joke?

Yabu

Is this a joke?

'Not a leader', said about the leader of the Labour party...
