Well that's a bit rude.

Why are these yellow Tories so filled with hate?

Could it be just like the Blue Tories they fear the power of organised workers?

As I've said before, despite voting Labour, I'm no Labourite or Social Democrat. That said It seems undeniable to me that Corbyn and Labour are denigrated mercilessly in the media in a way that simply doesn't happen to the Tories or the Lib Dems. The reasons are fairly obvious. What we see during election periods is that, suddenly forced to report somewhat impartially, Labour enjoys a significant boost in the polls.

PAM cant wait to share news that is bad for Labour, such as a poll showing them in third place. His fervour when such events occur seems quite unhealthy actually.
Ill bet you now PAM, Labour will come first or second in any election held this autumn, and will finish well ahead in seat numbers, than the illiberal dems

These polls are almost inevitably wrong and not worth the paper they are written on except to the people who commission them like Hedge Funds and their helpers in the media and politics.

Labour will put on 16 points in an election campaign which will be enough to secure a majority as the Brexit Party, SNP and Liebrals eat into the Tories share. Even if the Libs get 24% it won't translate into seats as its too evenly spread across the UK with exceptions in the SW of England and Orkney.

I love your confidence in the Labour Party. Somehow I don’t think that will come true. Only time will tell

Ideal situation would be a non aggression pact between lib Dems and labour to keep the Tories out, which has to be the absolute priority. The leave vote will rally and unify, the remain vote won't without some kind of deal. If the lib Dems get into the high teens whilst going up against Labour then the Tories get a majority.

It wont be up to him. The party will decide what position to take at the upcoming conference.

Who decides what motions get debated and voted on though...

Besides, the content of the manifesto is decided by The shadow front bench, PLP and unions at a Clause V meeting not conference.

Looking forward to the machinations from the LOTO's office, the neutral position is not tenable long term anyway.

They have no fear - they sense the weaknesses of the ‘main’ parties.
