Today an article suggested that Starmer will refuse to allow corbyn to return unless he provides a full apology and until that happens he remains on a rolling 3 month suspension.
And if that also fails: is he going to try waterboarding?

JC will be back in before Xmas. There are no grounds to exclude him and a legal challenge will establish this.

When the Court enforces readmission Keech can then report back to Hodge et al that there's nothing he can do but let Jez back in.

The media and those organising the witch hunt of the Left in Labour will attempt to ramp things up again but it will fizzle out from lack of fuel.

How much more pathetic can Starmer's 'Labour get in their desperation to cover up the fact that the Hodge faction's smear of anti semitism to get rid of Corbyn (several previous strategies such as the chicken coup of 2016 having failed) is now backfiring on them? They only wanted to blow down the door, yet they have now bigly tarnished Labour and blown down the house.

Hope that Corbyn gets good legal advice and tells them to "face the consequences of your actions".

Sad that when the Tories are destroying the country, the PLP under Starmer has nothing constructive and inspiring to offer.

They’re not worried about beating the tories. They just want to beat the left. They’ve shown that for the past 5 years, and they’re carrying on with it now.

Keir's 41 point lead

Just shows how damaged the Labour brand is that this isn't being reflected in the polls to a similar extent.

I sincerely hope enough time has passed by the next election that people don't opt against Labour based on the damage done in the last leadership.

Time to get the popcorn out. Corbyn filed legal papers last night against the party.

Hackney south and shoreditch have also voted no confidence in the wet lettuce saying now is the time for proper socialist policies and to take on the Torres in a united way.

Oo er misses this is gonna be fun.

Is Jezza to make a comeback as leader? Stranger things have happened at sea.

Perhaps people were answering ‘Well......’ rather than ‘Well’.

Do they not have to get rid of the mad lefties in order to be able to beat the Tories though?

No. If they had supported the mad lefties in 2017, we would have a Labour government right now.

In actual fact, many CLPs up and down the country have voted no confidence in Starmer, probably over 100 at this time.
now Corbyn has instructed a legal team, Starmer will have to back down, because in law, Corbyn's done nowt wrong, & if it goes to court, it will be mighty embarrassing for him.
What a liability Starmer is...I'm so glad i left Labour as soon as he was elected.

The only thing the damages Labour is that anti semite and his unelectable rabble being anywhere near main stream politics again.

Maybe radical centralism will make a comeback - that’s where the votes are. Labour need to grab that ground fast.

I'm not a Labour Party member nor am I appeasing anti-Semitism.

Whatever else Corbyn is, he's not an anti-semite. Whereas you are a liar and your lies detract from the serious issue of fighting Anti-Semitism and do Jewish people no favours at all.

A hell of a lot of people, regardless of their politics now conclude he is.

He had a chance to set the record straight and show some acknowledgment of the Equality Commissions report - he did the opposite!

No he didn't. He accepted its findings in full and agrees they should be implemented.

His beef is that the anti-semitism issue was overstated for political reasons by his opponets inside and outside the Labour Party.

Your lies don't make him an anti-semite.
