    He has alot of people who love him on here. He was in the remain campaign but failed to reach the people in places like barnsley Rotherham ect (labour strongholds) who voted leave in numbers. Could corbyn have done more for the remain cause?

    Corbyn had no affect on my vote. I didn't listen to a word he had to say.

    Reason being he was a devoted eurosceptic. For years and years.

    Suddenly he isn't.

    You can't trust anything on this debate that he may have said.

    That from a general supporter of labour.....

    You mean they didn't listen to their own Labour MP, who could not convince them, oh dear perhaps the local MPs should resign as well :)

    Thanks a honest answer all I wanted I just thought he should have been reaching out to the working class with his view from early.

    It's not his responsibility to 'Shepard in the Labour vote'. This vote went beyond simple party politics. The pathetic opportunistic calls for his head from certain Labour politicians is the kind of ridiculous political opportunism that would make even Boris Johnson blush.

    No. There's a saying "you can't educate pork" and now whilst I feel that's not quite the case here there were many voters who had set there minds early and were not for changing.

    the younger generation must feel let down today.

    JC believes that the only way to protect basic rights was to stay in the EU and caring for people was more important than socialist dogma. I agree. Is not about hypocrisy it's about the better of two evils.

    He said himself he was 7/10.

    Big decision to be relatively in favour of.

    He did well to stay out of vitriolic rhetoric to be honest.

    The younger generation didn't vote by all accounts. The # referendum mustn't have got much coverage on Xbox

    How can we rid ourselves of this egotistical bar steward? His values over rule the greater good of the country and he is incapable of uniting the party, but still he persists. He should resign and refuse to stand again.
