The bottom line is the membership was swelled by Zionists and anarchists who see Corbyn as one of them in addition to gullible dim witted young people who see this Stalinist thug as some kind of Wolfie Smith character.
The irony of course is the same dim witted youths are those who sneered at Brexit. They are so stupid and lazy they cannot be bothered to see that Corbyn is anti eu. People talk about Corbyn and his vision so what is that vision?
Nationalised industries
Huge hikes in personal tax for achievers
Huge hikes in corporate tax
Removal of all forms of military deterrent
Immediate withdrawal from EU
Total control of the Bank ofEngland and it's interest rates and monetary policy
If people thought this currency level was a collapse wait for this brave new world.
Not even considering the rise in violence and intimidation that has occurred to all dissenters. His known association with terrorists makes him a security threat.
The party has been invaded by the toxic anarchists in exactly the same way it did in the 1980's when the party descended into complete chaos. The established party MP's have a duty to the country to remove him or sideline him.
Anyone who considers him a viable alternative for government is frankly as deranged as he is.

The thing is though polls show there being 1% difference between the two parties at the moment. If the PLP united behind the leadership then they could do some serious damage at a general election. The public has lost its appetite for austerity and has no desire for a May & Hammond premiership.
All this talk of unelectable is invalid until you see results of an election, '83 is always given as an example but that election was won on the back of the Falklands. I was a £3 voter for Corbyn and when he won election I became a fully signed up member and play an active part in my constituency, this goes for many others I know. To suggest £3 supporters of other parties swung the vote for JC is disingenuous and comes from hostile media briefings by MPs opposed to his leadership. Hopefully, after this leadership election, this can be put to bed.
After this leadership battle is over (and I do believe Corbyn will win) all those rebel MPs are going to have to come back to their members and try to repair a fractured relationship. There are many people proposing deselections and, while I do think this could happen in a couple of cases, in the main bridges will need to be built. The way this will happen is members are going to demand their representatives stick behind the leader until after the next general election or face votes of no confidence, which they will then loose. MPs are not stupid people, they have to be incredibly intelligent to get to where they are and they know that it is in the best interest for their career to unite. Talks of the party splitting are nonsense to my mind, they know this will render both sides useless and hand perpetual power to the right.

We'll see. I think the rift is too great to heal, there will be more ruptions.
I don't think Labour have a cat in hells chance no matter who their leader is, I certainly wouldn't vote for them.

Always voted Labour since my first election in '83. Was in the SWP in the 80s too. Didn't like Blair and Iraw, etc but we did do some great things in Government. Voted for Corbyn last year but regret that now. People like McDonnell, Milne, McCluskey and Momentum are dragging us down. If Corbyn gets back in, then after 33 years I'm out. He's unelectable.

that still doesn't prove they're tories though does it? Maybe they're just people who want the labour party or politics in general to go a different way. This vote is very similar to the EU leave vote people are disillusioned and kicking out at the establishment.

Personally I can not see Corbyn leading the country I think he would be a disaster. He doesn't come across to me as a someone strong enough. He is single minded yes but leadership is more than that. Cant help but think of him more as a kindly old grandad who you go to for advice. Yes I know he has achieved, yes I know he has principles that are populist in certain groups, but I just don't see him standing up for the security of our nation. Yes he appeals to some of the unions and workers but he is going to have to appeal to the employers, the risk takers and middle England too - I just do not see it
I would think when Corbyn wins re election that the 80% of MP's (who are the ones that really have to work with him) who voted no confidence in him will retire to the back benches to see the parliament out. Him winning, being told to get behind him doesnt restore respect or confidence in him. Which is in itself a disaster for democracy but robs the labour party of talent on the front benches. Those MP's will no doubt be de selected in a good number of seats come the next election. I would guess that any that step out of line will be bullied by certain activists so further degrading the democratic process. I know the party selects the MP, but the Labour electorate are not all members and an MP represents first an foremost the constituency trying to apply the Labour values to solve its problems for all its constituents, most constituents are not Labour voters
I saw the interview on channel 4 news last night, and irrespective of whether she was milking it giving many interviews, the woman was clearly scared to exercise her own free thought and democratic rights. What has our country come to even to see that let alone excuse it. I have heard that Corbyn has reportedly condemned it surely as leader he should make sure he is interviewed on it, denounce it and then follow through on any one taking part - it should be highly visible. Blaming the lack of visibility on lack of media coverage in the internet age is not acceptable
Whilst this is going on the Labour Party leaves open the middle ground, something it looks like May has already seized upon. That positions Labour further to the left, the 400k members may well be pleased about that move left. Corbyn is to the left of the party but to maintain support he must keep moving in that direction which is fine in opposition but not so easily should they get to power. However the vast majority of the electorate are middle ground should they exercise their vote, radical change scares them. With the electoral set up, the growth of SNP in Scotland (a former Labour stronghold) I just do not see how the Labour can get to power.
This is not just the fault of 80% of labour MP's as activists would have you believe it is the result of many deep divisions and power struggles, Such a revolt is almost unheard of. The Labour Party is moving back to the 70's - sorry but the World has forward. The use of this group Momentum seems in part at least to be deplorable - negates any good positive work it might do
What a mess, at a time where we need a strong opposition we have something that many find ridiculous.
Corbyn not for me thank you

" The Labour Party is moving back to the 70's -"
I think that's nonsense to be honest. But with a media which brands any slightly to the left of hitler a communist it's not surprising people get that impression.
Even if labour elect someone more supposedly centre left, e.g eagles or burnham, they'll get exactly the same treatment.

Yep, pretty much my thoughts. I think he is that rarest of things; an honest politician but that will never be enough. Unelectable and now very much in the way. By the way, I'm not convinced he will win the election, the experiment is over.

The 1 point lead is when the polls are adjusted to reflect the low voter turn out in recent elections. When you put the turnout back up interestingly the Labour lead is 5 points.
The key for Corbyn will be to mobilise those who weren't voting. He, or whoever is leading Labour at the time, doesn't necessarily have to get people who voted Conservative, UKIP or Green last time to move their vote to Labour.

MP murdered in the street and political activity carries on as usual. Few tweets to Eagle and all member political activity is banned.

None, as I've said before. But equally I don't think Eagle or Smith would. Don't think May will either.
The interesting thing would be, as Sturgeon has intimated she is open to, Labour and the SNP worked together.
