Anti-Corbyn coup fails - so far!

All he would have been shown or allowed into were, as was the norm then and is still the norm today in China, N Korea and other countries, what showed the utopia that was Soviet controlled communist rule, not the truth.   By the way, it's Stasi, not Stazi.    LL

Oops, I was getting my police states muddled up!

Militant Tendency chief set to rejoin Corbyn's Labour: Party could be plunged into more chaos if organisation is readmitted 30 years after it was kicked out

Are the Corbynistas trying to pretend Militant Tendency isn't hard Left? Utter madness - Mrs May must be ROFL-ing.

Hasn't it dawned on Jezza that for every new fanatic that joins his Labour party, ten voters swear they will never, ever vote for these madmen?

http://news.sky.com/story/labour-wins-court-appeal-over-leadership-vote-10533363

Labour's ruling body has won its bid to overturn a court decision allowing new party members to vote in the leadership election.

The Court of Appeal has allowed the attempt by party officials to reinstate a block imposed by the National Executive Committee (NEC) on tens of thousands of recruits getting the vote.

The NEC decided that full members would not be able to vote if they had not had at least six months' continuous membership up to 12 July.

Announcing the decision, Lord Justice Beatson, sitting with Lady Justice Macur and Lord Justice Sales, said: "On the correct interpretation of the party rules, the National Executive Committee has the power to set the criteria for members to be eligible to vote in the leadership election in the way that it did."

More follows...

Nope, I don't know what this means for Jezza.....

http://order-order.com/2016/08/12/labour-wins-appeal-to-block-new-corbynista-voters/

The Court of Appeal has ruled in favour of Labour and agreed that 130,000 new supporters who registered since January should not be allowed to vote in the Labour leadership contest. Will the Corbynistas appeal?

UPDATE: The five Corbynista complainants say they want to appeal to the Supreme Court but permission is refused.

Jeremy Corbyn's delusion that he can beat the Tories is tragic, but it's all Labour has right now
12 August 2016

Jeremy Corbyn is fed up of the awkward facts used against him by critics, so he has come up with some of his own. His leadership campaign has launched a new website - Corbynfacts.com - in order to try and scotch popular criticism levied at him like that he didn't do much during the EU referendum campaign, or that he doesn't care about tackling sexism in the party.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/08/12/jeremy-corbyns-delusion-that-he-can-beat-the-tories-is-tragic-bu/

He certainly doesn't care much about anti-semitism, LL - it's gone well beyond not liking Netenyahu's policies.

Oh, look...

Jewish Labour donor compares Jeremy Corbyn’s inner circle to Nazi stormtroopers
14 August 2016 • 12:22pm

A Jewish Labour donor has compared Jeremy Corbyn’s inner circle to Nazi stormtroopers as the party’s infighting escalated once again over the weekend.

Michael Foster, who has given hundreds of thousands of pound to the party, refered to the Labour leader’s aides as Sturmabteilung, the full name for Adolf Hitler’s SA.

'Labour has become a Moonie-like sect': Former MP criticises Corbyn and accuses members of not caring whether the party wins election

Labour has become a 'Moonie-like sect' under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn and some of its members don't care if they win the election, according to a former MP.

Dave Watts, a former union official, launched an attack on his party and focused on Mr Corbyn, left-wing groups and Momentum - an organisation which supports the current leader.

Embattled Jeremy Corbyn to drum up support at Coventry rally

The Coventry Socialist Party has called for a “huge show of support” for Mr Corbyn at the event.
A message on the Coventry Socialist Party website said: “The immediate task is to mobilise for Jeremy Corbyn’s re-election, but also to organise to ensure that this time his victory is consolidated by remaking Labour as a party that is genuinely working class and socialist, that really can be the voice of the 99 per cent.

I think that should read " remaking Labour as a party that is genuinely working class and socialist, that really can be the voice of the 9.9 per cent."

Corbyn nationalising the railways will strike terror into the heart of anyone over 40.

Yes. I suspect those keen on renationalising the railways have been watching too many clips of the Flying Scotsmen, and all those BBC documentaries about the rural lines that have been revived by amateurs and are now running shiny steam trains.
