Four Month Shadow Cabinet Reshuffle

[simmo]

The Trident renewal debate will be fascinating

Read a brief little snippet in one of the papers a couple of weeks ago concerning this, which if it wasn't her majesty's official opposition you would have to laugh at, concerning Trident and it's renewal.

The British Labour parties official position is that they are for it
The British Labour parities leader (Jeremy Corbyn) is against it
The Scottish Labour parties official position is that they are against it
The Scottish Labour leader (Kezia Dugdale) is for it

What a rabble!

i foresee a less than united front on Europe too. its assumed there's a single party view, when historically they are divided on the issue. i cant see Corbyn campaigning for a stay in option alongside Cameron, he'll try to stay neutral at most, a possibility of quietly supporting for out.

Turning on their own. Sad to see.

The former chairman of the Labour parliamentary party Lord Watts described Jeremy Corbyn's shadow cabinet reshuffle as "disastrous".

"I would like to say to my own party leadership that last week, I think, was a disastrous week for us. When we should have been concentrating, and holding the Government to account for the floods and for this Bill, we involved ourselves in an unnecessary reshuffle and we lost two of our best communicators, Michael Dugher and Kevan Jones.

"My advice to my own party leadership is that they should take less notice of the London-centric hard left political class who sit around in their £1 million mansions eating their croissants at breakfast and seeking to lay the foundations for a socialist revolution.

"It is not the job of the parliamentary Labour party to sit around developing ultra-left wing policies which make them feel good. It's their job, and their responsibility, to come forward with policies which will help us to win the next general election. For those who don't want to take on that task can I suggest they join a society in which they can enjoy sitting around having a philosophical debate about the meaning of socialism."

Not sure £1million gets you a mansion in London these days, wouldn't even get you one here either
