Yo.

Today I am hear there will be a coup in the Labour Party led by the Blairites. These Blairites want Jeremy Corbyn to step down as leader of the Labour Party because he actually holds the Labour Party's values dear and they want the Labour Party to become like the Tories in order to be more electable.

Your thoughts.

I probably don't agree with Corbyn on much, but I can at least respect that he is more in line with what the Labour party is supposed to stand for. The old left-wing, working class parties seem to largely have abandoned their original voting base, and these voters have instead turned to UKIP, Front Nationale, etc. to find common ground

Front Nationale is french.

Front Nationale is french.

Yes, I'm just saying the trend is the same across the West: People are starting to realize they've been sold out by the political elite, and now comes the reaction

I was looking for this post. It seems that the French Socialist Party is returning to socialism, with the election of Democratic Socialist Benoit Hamon as its nominee for the election. This, I suppose, is why the establishment have rushed in with the Centrist Liberal candidate Emmanuel Macron. Hopefully, Corbyn and Hamon can win back voters who have turned to UKIP and FN.
