Yes. I don’t think he’ll step down. He likes being in opposition and in a state of permanent campaigning. The NEC are rock solid and will be even if they lose again, which I think they will.
Professor Sir John Curtice told The Political Party podcast that there is a 66% chance of a Tozza majority with the most likely outcome a 70-80 majority.
Will be a shock to everyone if a Government has a majority meaning it takes stuff to Parliament that actually fooking passes no matter what the oppo thinks
He will definitely refuse to step down. The party membership is in the hands of the Left, and their strategy is to maintain control of the party until Tory failure delivers the country to the party.
Even if Corbyn steps down his successor will be someone from the same wing.
He will step down in my view but will be replaced by a younger, probably female version of him. His successor will be a Long Bailey, Pidcock or someone like that from the same Momentum wing of the hard left project.
Why should he? This modern trend of resigning when you lose an election, but staying on (or bouncing back) when you commit some sort of malfeasance, is all the wrong way round.
"He will definitely refuse to step down. The party membership is in the hands of the Left, and their strategy is to maintain control of the party until Tory failure delivers the country to the party."
Sounds like the Communist strategy in Jan 1933 when the Nazi's took power. They will wait for failure. Turned out well for them. Needed the Red Army and a World War to put them power in half of Germany in the end.
No although that’s a loophole that will probably be closed. If you’re still bringing in big dollar a law firm will always negotiate, anyway. At my yankshop I worked with a mega senior guy who was 70.

Politicians should be made to retire at 65 like everyone else and that would solve the problem

The struggle continues comrades, regardless of any so called ‘election result’.

Queenie, not only is everyone forced to retire at 65 it is actually illegal to make them do so.

The best way to get rid of Corbyn is to vote Lib Dem.
Get enough Lib Dem MPs and their price for a coalition - along with a Brexit referendum - will be someone else (Starmer, Cooper, Benn etc) is PM.
