Jeremy Corbyn is facing a full-blown Labour coup after a slew of shadow cabinet members quit saying he is not up to the job. A coordinated mutiny has been launched against the leader after he sacked shadow foreign secretary Hilary Benn in the early hours of this morning for plotting. Heidi Alexander quit the Shadow Cabinet within hours, saying Mr Corbyn lacked the 'capability' to lead the party. She was soon followed by equalities spokeswoman Gloria de Piero, Scottish secretary Ian Murray - Labour's only MP north of the border. Shadow education secretary Lucy Powell, shadow transport secretary Lilian Greenwood and shadow environment secretary Kerry McCarthy have also resigned. Angela Eagle, her sister Maria, Chris Bryant, and Jon Ashworth are expected to declare their departures later.

Hilary Benn laid into Jeremy Corbyn in an appearance on the BBC's Andrew Marr show this morning, insisting he was 'not a leader'. He also said he had shown 'little enthusiasm' during the EU campaign

 
Getting rid of the Blairites was always paramount to the massive grass-roots support for Corbyn's brand of party leadership. This clear-out is excellent news.

Here's another neoZionist bomb-head. Another bloody ' Friend of israel' Get rid of them;

Margaret Hodge, a pro-Israel Member of the UK Parliament launched a coup attempt against Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn on Friday.

Younger people (one of my daughters, for instance) are already joining the party to vote for Mr Corbyn, if necessary.

Snapshot: Jeremy Corbyn, who appeared with his shadow cabinet and other party officials on the campaign trail earlier this month (pictured), has now an an almost complete walk out of his shadow cabinet as 20 full members resigned, followed by at least another 18 more junior figures
 
my hope is that the same thing that happened to labor happens to democrats here with their working class members defecting to UKIP.

Getting the Blairite bomb-heads out of the Labour party has been the aim of the masses of grass-roots supporters from day one.

Yeah, she's the one who doesn't want Boris to be PM, Home Secretary, I believe as well. Boris was seen as the obvious candidate 60% by the bookies.
Would you also like me to tell you of Andrea Leadsom and Stephan Crabb. The bookies don't give much of a chance to Gove

Could be that we have a second woman PM before the US even has its first!! Andrea Leadsom is very clever and even has good teeth, which I know is terribly important to Merkins. Maybe you could tell Iolo and Moonbat that their man Corbyn is dead in the water!!
