Is it me, or does it feel like the Labour Leadership has been going on forever?
According to Labours website:
"The Labour Party National Executive Committee has agreed the timetable for the election of the Leader of the Labour Party. The election will conclude with a Leadership Conference on 24 September 2016"
Even with the negative media image that seems to follow Jeremy Corbyn, I personally think he's got it in the bag. The question is what will happen to the Labour Party if he does win? Will there be the much prophesied split or breakup of the party? Or will Labour finally sort themselves out and start acting like an opposition party, keeping the Government in check.
This ongoing public self destruction of the party could take decades to sort out, or will a new centre party arise from the ashes. Maybe it will absorb the Liberals and the Greens
Who knows, but just get on with it.
Regardless of your political persuasion, or if you think Cameron was right or wrong to resign, you can't argue the fact that the Tories were quick to sort themselves out, even it caused some high profile casualties.
Likewise a party in power that has no strong opposition, is worrying if we want to keep flying the flag of democracy, particularly when we are quick to criticise single party regimes in other countries.
Anyone got any thoughts? Are you uninterested and bored by the whole sorry saga, or do you think the Labour Party is about to be reborn and burst back into life?
