Hilary Benn Sacked From The Shadow Cabinet - wider political debate

No the rules will seek a legal challenge if any mp goes into a lead ship battle they are as clear as mud badly written up!
Corbyn has not got the PLP support!

It seems like Eagles, and her gang, are petrified of having the membership vote in a ballot with Corbyn's name on it. It seems like they are not very confident in their own convictions to discuss their views with the members of the Labour party. If they can't convince Labour party members, to vote for her, what chance does she have on convincing the wider public to elect her if she became leader. And given that she went AWOL, when the Chilcot report was released, it suggests that she is not up to it when the flack flies, like why she voted for the Iraq war on a lie, during an election campaign.

Forget her I am not supporting her just the antics of the Corbynism-
the rules are not clear yet the person who drew them up says The leader Corbyn does need 51 of the PLP on the leadership ballot paper it's a nightmare Corbyn has been forced to leave the room he is a pacifist bully!

Why don't you like Eagles, what is wrong with her? What are the 'antics of Corbynism'? What a dummy the person is who didn't make the rules clear, but is now claiming they are clear. What a buffoon. I will do a job - write the rules -, but wont really do it - make them unclear - but when it suits me I will clearly claim they are this or that. I suppose he left the rules unclear because he wanted to, and no one asked him why. I wouldn't take the word of a person that doesn't know what they are doing, deliberate or otherwise.

During an NEC meeting that votes on leadership issues, when the vote is taken the leader of the party has to leave the room. They are clearly in the rules.
 
Someone put a brick through the window of her constituency office....That serious a crime, that the plod commissioner came over to personally inspect the damage...

'Kinell, you'd think it was kristallnacht ; the way she carried on on the radio.

Yes but some argue that all MPs need 51 support others says the incumbent acting leader need not bother clear as mud but if a leader cannot get 51 votes IMO he should go!

Plus a few hudred others so why single her out?
 
We do not know as yet what the NEC has determined. If JC is on the ballot paper then he will no doubt be elected but still not have the support of the PLP - so no change.

The crisis looks set to continue, where this will end is anybody's guess.

In quieter times that would be the case Joey66, a 'leader' who can't scrape up 50 nominations from his own party is a contradiction in terms. He'd resign out of embarrassment. It's not quiet times, though - JC and his momentum parasites have colonised the labour party and are dug in like tapeworms.

The treatment for this is not to try and out-manoeuvre them with some weak, biscuit-ersed rules-is-rules argument, but that is what appears to be happening.

The key word is challenge. If he goes it isn't a challenge it is de facto a 'coup', which flies completely against the principle of democracy that is the entire bedrock of the labour movement.
Who do the PLP represent when standing for election as a prospective parliamentary candidate?
This is the behaviour of people who know they have been found out and are trying to protect their cushy incomes and westminster lifestyles. Perhaps they'd have been better served by going on strike and forming a picket line at parliament. At leadt that way they would show some credentials...

Party? He has the overwhelming support of the party. The PLP have split themselves off knowing it will split the party completely. Self indulgence at its highest form.
