    Or you could look at it another way Gerry. We are not talking about a business, but a political party which was formed to represent ordinary people. I would argue that rather than leaving a sinking ship, Corbyn along with others fought to bring Labour back to its roots and its founding principles, which are more relevant now than ever. Since he was elected as leader 14,500 new people have signed up to the party and it now enjoys its biggest membership since Blair's most popular days in 1999. I would suggest that this shows that my view that Labour left its core members many years ago and sold its soul for gold is shared by many on the left. Let's be honest, if he was Mandela and his deputy was Gandhi and they both sang the national anthem with straight ties, the right would attack Labour and I wouldn't expect anything else. Whatever, very interesting times ahead.

    PS if the old Blairites feel like fish out of water they do have the option of joining the Tory party. Lol
