    If people vote Tory because of the lies in Murdoch etc media when they can see as plain as day what the bstds are doing with the NHS,public services ,workers rights etc etc then we deserve everything we get.

    It was hardly surprising that Corbyn got back in, if Owen Smith was the best his opponents could come up with. Every time I saw him I thought Martin O'Neill, which isn't very flattering. I couldn't take the bloke seriously.

    you vote liberal democrat. I know, laugh - like the press do - there's a reason for that. they're actually petrified they'll have to deal with a government with morals.

    they knew it would damage them going into coalition with the scumbags but it had to be done. country not party, and all that.

    they foolishly believed that the tories would back the AV vote - hopefully lesson learned.

    the student fees debacle aside, they were a fine counter and indeed veto to the amoral policies of camerham and his cronies.

    Big gap in the centre - I was worried this referred to centre of our mid field
    Panic over

    As for politics- the centre will be dominated by the Conservatives
    That's what this leadership battle as been all about

    They only went into coalition with the Tories because Ed Balls told them to **** off.

    I thought it was about an injury to scowen or hourihane. Thank god it was only about the comedy party that will never get close to giving our country away again and promoting a scrounging claim culture. Come on scowen and hourihane.

    Aye sell all your principles just for a small dose of what they thought was power. Outthought by Cameron on Pr. Liars to a man. I'd rather vote Tory than lying professional politicians like the Libs.

    I genuinely can't remember the last time I bet on anything, let alone something as unpredictable as politics. Or BFC.

    I doubt those odds would have been any different had Owen Smith won today. As I've often said on here I don't think Labour can win the next election anyway because of what has happened in Scotland. The numbers don't add up. IMHO there needs to be a progressive left alliance to achieve what we both want.

    You Torys are scared to fcuck of Corbyn, Hoss and cart, scared if he gets in power he'll do away with the bedroom tax, stop the privatisation of the NHS, nationalise the railways, bring back the Post Office into our ownership, tax the rich and bring these tax avoiding companys to book, and most of all let the working class have it's say, I could go on but I'll not
    And there's one guy on here who say's the centre ground will be dominated by the Conservatives you just could not make it up May, Boris the Baffoon and the other detestable rabble that sit in the house of commons shouting heeeer heeeer are that far right there half way up Donald Trumps back eye.
