A record number of times. During the Labour governments he voted against the whip 428 times. Kind of makes it hard to keep discipline as leader when you have that kind of reputation.

Well done to ChangeUK..The Lib Dems and Blairites for trashing a Unity Govt to keep a Socialist out.

You think Covid is bad on the Economy wait for No deal Brexit..

Bleak decade coming up folks.

Yeah if only Corbyn had attacked the government when it was most vulnerable, when, for instance, the Cambridge Analytica scandal was breaking, things might have been different. But you know - 'buses'.

You are shouting at the people who had the balls to stand up and say Brexit is a very stupid idea, and one that was brought in through questionable actions and outlandish claims. Corbyn was bad news all the way through this. Divisive in his own party, and divisive on the doorstep. Never put the right pressure on the government at the right time and always backing that government when it really mattered.

You'll complain about the media coverage he got, with some reason, but the way that Corbyn dealt with that was to wallow in the 'poor me' aspects rather than try to change the narrative. That kind of thing appeals to the people who want a cause, a martyr to follow, and that brought a lot of people into the Labour party, but it did not bring over the wider population. If he had really, truly, stuck to calling out the government over issues with real meat on them then eventually the media, or at least some of it, would have picked those themes up and run with them. But no...

You also haven't responded to my comments on the Government of National Unity (A Gnu - a compromise between a horse and an antelope). That was a non starter again because of Corbyn. Because it would have depended on MP's who quit labour because of Corbyn. He was incapable of stepping back, at least for a short period, to let someone take leadership who those MP's could have trusted. As ever it is their fault for not buying into the Corbyn cult, just as it is our fault for not voting for him at the last election. Saintly JC is never at fault himself.

We have had a succession of terrible Conservative governments, each one worse than the last. One of the reasons they have got away with so much is purely because they have not had an effective opposition. Even when the opposition landed some solid blows, like over Grenfell, it was down to the likes of Lammy and Cooper, very talented people pushed to the back benches, not Corbyn.

Corbyn is not the main reason we are where we are right now, but he surely has played his part in this farce.

Corbyn defeated the Govt more than any Labour Leader in history...Look at the data...

Please feel free to research before you post guys.

41 times which is only surpassed by Thatcher 76-79..

Post is for lost in wales not you Navy.....Lost is generally more informed.
