Political parties have often been board church of people first past the post makes this marriage even more necessary.  Talk of the centre ground part, this in part comes from the current voting system.  Recently been talk about the divide within Labour party but this ignores reality always been board church.   All sides within the party must work together if wants power does mean compromising.  Mistakes have been made criticism along with ideas and support is required from every side. Briefing against your own leader does not help your cause only increases the length of time out of power.  Cold war against Corbyn is unlikely to solve Labours woes instead supporting him and understanding what happened is required.  Various wings of the party have failed to learn from history repeating same mistakes.

Willing to admit Corbyn so far has failed on various fronts.  Government has been given loads of space when should be sweating due to moving the goal posts.  What has happened instead is moving towards populist policy instead of dispelling some myths.  Both sides of the party have made this mistake and failed to take hold of the message or even communicated correctly. Speculation with reports of fighting is not helpful fails to learn from the past.

End of the day all Labour members/supporters and voters want Labour government.

Wanted a leader who is media message is perfect, can talk to people, gives us an alternate.   Best we have is Corbyn who media management has been lacklustre with unhappy parliamentary Labour party who is unwilling to move on from the past.  Hardcore Corbyn supporters also unwilling to move on from the past.  Corbyn would not have won within winning the so called centre ground which speaks volumes of the disconnect.  Labour party right now feels more like student politics even the grown up parliamentary Labour party is looking more like student union.

Party needs to tell some cold hard truths and attack myths along with paint an alternate vision. Tories have built up big collection of myths which are easy to attack and vision does not match reality.  You know that Apprenticeship levy was abolished by Mrs. Thatcher and going to cost business millions of pounds a year extra tax.  Police spending has been cut by 2.4% but nobody noticed that…

If the parliamentary Labour party wants to win over Corbyn supporters should start doing his job for him.  Corbyn could not win within taking the centre group of the Labour party and setting his own narrative keeping on message.  Attacking Corbyn only makes the task of removing him much harder and getting back into power.  Doing a better job taking his message, painting your own narrative is how you win.   Political spin is required and media control.  Hints that some within the opposition understand the above point and want to win over the rebel membership.

Some view me as hardcore leftie not even close 🙂
