He'll be 72 in 2022. If he was still leader and Labour was voted in he'd be the oldest first-term prime minister in history. I don't see him becoming PM, tbh.

It looks more likely by the day.

Scotland will be the key, returning to Labour and booting out the SNP.

That and a few marginals gained in England will do it.

At the 2017 election, Labour won 30 seats
To form a government they will need to win an additional 63 seats

Brexit is still 1 year away
The next election is still 4 years away

With Labour languishing in the polls under Corbyn, and his constant dithering on key issues,
I can't see Labour sticking with him for much longer.

But, as they say, "a week is a long time in politics" (Harold Wilson)

You must be so indoctrinated that your sense left you years ago. If the Labour party put up a turd, you would be shouting it would be elected PM. Oh shit, I forgot they do have a turd as Leader. And a load of excreta following him. You're a very sad person Canny with a C ending in a T. Corbyn will never be elected PM the country as a whole will not trust him. Local elections are a different matter the labour councillors may get a few extra in councils but that will be the end of it. Until the next elections then they will be kicked out as councillors when it is discovered they are the worst lot to have in power. Have a nice day.

I can't wait to see your face after the next election.

Those childish ad-homs will dry up then, that's for sure.

The SNP would need to collapse.

Or agree to coalition.

63 seats is far from impossible. And they only need to take 28 off the Tories (possibly with LibDem help) to be the largest party.

Here's the targets.

Please come and wipe the coffee off my keyboard, Stooo.

And we don't like your lot much since you decided to get bummed by Shameron and Osboat.

However, take a few seats off Treeza and all may just be forgiven.

I have friends in the SNP - we have been trying to boost the Cumbrian version but unlike Kernow (or whatever the Cornish thing is called now) life is too good here for people to really give a fuck.
