The Dastardly Duo

Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana so useless they've already made pig's ear of new venture

I see politics' two biggest nitwits, Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana, have decided to form their own party after alienating almost all of their former Labour colleagues. And how typical of this dastardly duo - they've already managed to make a pig's ear of it. Left-wing zealot Sultana, who was suspended by Labour last summer for voting against the Government in an opposition attempt to lift the two-child benefit cap, announced her intention to co-lead a new national party with Corbyn on Thursday.

But - and this is a biggie - she appears to have forgotten to tell the ex-Labour leader - leaving him utterly blindsided. No wonder he was said to be "furious and bewildered". When he finally took to X, formerly Twitter, 24 hours later to acknowledge Sultana's statement, he had little to say aside from noting her "principled decision" to leave Labour (utter tosh) and her ability to "help us build a real alternative" (what does this even mean?)

Anyone with a sense of fun must hope this is true and she really did forget to tell him. 

Maybe we'll soon discover the name of the new party, although presumably Zarah would have to tell Jeremy before she announces it.
