We haven’t covered ourselves in glory

Jeremy Corbyn admits ‘we haven’t covered ourselves in glory’ after Your Party infighting chaos

Jeremy Corbyn has admitted “we haven’t covered ourselves in glory” after a string of embarrassing setbacks and weeks of bitter infighting at the top of Your Party.

Relaunching its paid-up membership service, the former Labour leader apologised for “the confusion in getting to this point” as he urged backers of the new left-wing outfit to “move on” and sign up as founding members ahead of its first conference in November.

It comes after Mr Corbyn last week said he was seeking legal advice after his party's co-leader, Zarah Sultana, sent an “unauthorised email” from Your Party’s account, inviting its supporters to become paid members, apparently without his backing.


There isn't much left to say about Jeremy Corbyn. Maybe his name should be Ed Corbyn as Ed seems to be a popular name for political clowns, but unfortunately it isn't. 

Corbyn doesn't seem to be the major political threat Labour has to face from the loony left though, Ed Starmer has that job well in hand.

Or maybe Ed Burnham will achieve his ambition, oust Starmer and become be the chap Corbyn has to battle with. 

So little to play for.
