The evidence
that Angela Eagle’s (as yet still unannounced) leadership bid was planned
in advance tells us more than we want to know about the flinching and
sneering ones who are trying to bring Jeremy Corbyn down.
Because
these career politicians (for whom their own position within Blair’s Labour
Party in 2003 was more important than the unjustified butchery of hundreds of
thousands of Iraqis) cannot conceive that anyone would be motivated by other
than self-interest, it never occurred to them that Corbyn could sustain the
sort of pressure which would have destroyed any of them many times over.
But he has.
And he will.
The
Parliamentarians never accepted the election of a socialist leader backed by
the rank and file of the Party and the trade unions, and they have been looking
for an opportunity to bring Corbyn down since his first day in office.
Corbyn still
has support from trade
unions and Party members – and if and when one of the anti-Corbyn MPs can
find the self-confidence to put themselves forward as a candidate we will have
an election.
To support
Jeremy Corbyn, join the Labour Party.
