Good of Corbyn to mention Ed Miliband. Andy Burnham looks like he's about to cry.

Well, it's nothing if not decisive.

People have long been complaining about slimey careerists who say whatever they think they need to to succeed. It will be fascinating to see how the public at large responds to a leader who is categorically not that.

Well, with a victory this insanesly decisive, we know it's a totally legitimate victory and not down to Tories for Corbyn or any such nonsense.

Lets see what happens!

Although I do thank Tories for Corbyn for all the money they gave to the Labour Party, I suppose.

As someone pointed out over at /r/worldnews, Labour is now led by Tom and Jerry. What a gift to the tabloids.

That victory was a bigger landslide than expected! Say what you like about Corbyn's policies, he's a fantastic speaker.

Not sure what to make of Corbyn. While I agree with him on many issues there is a lot that concerns me. Refusing to condemn the IRA, negotiating with Argentina over the Falklands, and some of his economic polices are the biggest problems Corbyn has for me.

As a Lib-Dem, I wonder if MP defections are coming our way?. Tim is known to be on the left of our party, and we are now wringing our hands with glee at the thought of gaining MP's from Labour.

Uniting the party is now Corbyn's first and only priority.

Good. Won't vote for him, but appreciate the fact that the left is now led by somebody with conviction.

God so much pessimism in this thread. For the first time in years we have a leader that stands behind his principles and isn't just spouting the same old PR bullshit. He might be divisive but at least he'll try and bring back real Labour values.

Going to be interesting to see Corbyn vs Boris in the next election, two massive personalities.

Imagine wanting the ability to opt out of funding the armed forces, yet being forced to fund mining unions - even though you want green energy. The poor old man must be confused.

2020 Predictions (plz disagree like crazy, but don't downvote, they're all opinions):

Greens and TUSC face severe electoral damage (though they're not exactly healthy anyway)
A few labour MP defections to tories, maybe one to lib dems, a few go independent, lots of rogues. Don't think this "coup" will materialise though.
A mild drawback from the UKIP ex-labour voters, IF Corbyn plays his cards right
A medium drawback from the SNP ex-labour voters
Some Labour voter defections to the Lib Dems
Nothing to do with this, but I think win or lose the referendum UKIP will suffer a voter loss, either it loses it's primary purpose or it fails it's primary purpose. UKIP ain't a one-trick pony persay, but I think we can all agree a significant proportion of it's votes come from the issue it's named after...
Bounceback of Libdems to a certain degree

Overall I think who wins 2020 will actually be decided by the Chinese crisis right now, if the economy tanks and world recession hits again the Tories will face major setbacks (even though it's not their fault, troubles of the time are oft blamed on the ruling government), if we go into another serious recession I struggle to see the tories winning a majority.

If I had to place a bet I'd go for a coalition next government, Probably Tory/libdem, secondly Labour/SNP, possibly Tory/UKIP, Tory/DUP or Labour/Libdem.

Wildcards: War with ISIS, Terrorism, Syrian Civil War, The Irish Situation, Cameron's renegotiation with the EU.

Islamism and Immigration.

That'll be what does him in.

I love how he shouts, and he's already attacking the media too.

Edit: Oh god, everything I wished for, he's already taking a hard stance on the refugees.

Edit 2: And he's making his offerings to the unions. BAKERS UNION REPRESENT!

Edit 3: Media bad, yuth good. Fucking hell this is magic.

Edit 4: First resignation from the front bench. https://twitter.com/jreedmp/status/642649854624309248

ONWARDS COMRADES.

The only problem I have with this result is the potential for Corbyn to take votes away from the SNP. It's a great result for real Labour voters.

naraic42 · 3時間前

I personally am conflicted. On the one hand, this means five more years of Tory rule at the next election. On the other, the butthurt from some corners when Corbyn decisively loses will be immeasurably entertaining.

Of course, if Corbyn actually wins I might have to move country. I've no desire to live in a recreation of 1922 Germany.
