Jeremy Corbyn: Master of the 'high five'.

[Gandalf]

Lyle, from what I can gather, you are distracting from the original intent of the thread. Will you please stop it!

, see you do that so nicely that I feel obliged to do so



So what's the big takeaway from the election? May made a horrible mistake in calling for a vote and Corbyn outperformed his expectations and therefore Labour gained seats but not enough to make Corbyn the Prime Minister? That the long and short of it?

Pretty much, mate. Think there might have to be another election in 18 months. Think Labour will finish the job now the message is out. The fear has failed. Corbyn will probably be at Glastonbury this year, he is that cool.

Since May has done so poorly does this open the door for anyone else to take a shot at Corbyn?

No, they did it for 2 years, 2 attempted coups, and a vote of no confidence. They have failed and he is more popular than ever.

May could try to find someone else to tango, but it would be useless. People know he is legit and any further election will eradicate the Tories.

I have heard it suggested that Boris Johnson go in against him. I say let the Tories completely implode. They haven't a single policy, principle, nothing.

Next election = Corbyn as Prime Minister.

And what would that bring? What would we come to expect from England with Corbyn as PM? A better economy? Brexit? Being allied now with the Palestinians, Venezuelan and Cuban Socialists/Communists, and former IRA members?


What about other parties, is any other party close on the heels of either the Tories or Labour?
