For this oik at least, who has supported Corbyn from day one, I'm not exactly impressed by the Party moving from support of an 'orderly' Brexit, to a position where the Party appears opposed to Brexit, despite its 2017 manifesto commitment to honouring the 2016 vote, but ensuring some Brexit Deal was in place - and the biggest villain here appears to be McDonnell in my mind.
Still, facts are facts, a majority of the PLP oppose Brexit 100% regardless of how their Constituents voted and they appear to hold sway over JC, who, could have avoided this by telling the Israeli Lobby within the Party to bugger off, removing the Whip from the most hostile of the Labour PLP Centrists and backing Open Selection last September, instead of the Fix we now have.
It ain't over yet, but Johnson and the ERG have played a blinder, its no Coup though and the accusations of a Coup are crass - as a reminder, I was in Bangkok for Thailand's last Coup and it was not something to make light of - of course Centrists are making light of reality and deserve a good thrashing, Corbyn just needs to wake and stop doing the bidding of the Remainiacs, who, as all Polling indicates, have lost us a fair bit of support in less than 2 months.
