I suppose I’m visualising a scenario where Labour wants to govern and needs Corbyns party to make the numbers. Labour would be forced to negotiate and couldn’t just ignore them as if they were in the party.
Isn’t a lot of the urban labour vote Pro Corbyn? Could they suffucient numbers?
No doubt the numbers have been run. My strong impression was that if he started a new party that there would be enough core support (Momentum, the new membership of 600000 which is pro corbyn, the unions, students, urbanites, reboot the hype of the election before last) to get enough seats to become an entity that Labour would have to take notice of.
Suppose I never took into account the risk of a conservative party landslide. Not like a starmer labour landslide is going to have different policies tho.
