CORBYN IS NOT TO BLAME

GRAHAM Jones has cited a perceived fall in Labour support since the general election as justification for the long-planned attempted hijacking of the Labour party by him and his so-called ‘Labour’ MP chums in Westminster.

He appears to consider this fall in support as concrete ‘proof’ that Jeremy Corbyn is personally responsible for this and uses this as an excuse to force the Labour leader out.

Mr Jones appears to have either failed to understand that mere association is by no means demonstration of cause and effect.

In the last year, there has been a fall in Labour votes in some areas. At least two other notable things have happened over that period:

1. Jeremy Corbyn became leader of the opposition.

2. Over the same period the majority of disgruntled so-called ‘Labour’ MPs, like Jones, have acted like spoilt children and [undermined] their elected leader at every opportunity.

They have throughout that time focused on what they think is good for their own political careers, rather than considering the interests of the British people, which is what they are paid to do.

Graham Jones is taking a big risk if he thinks that traditional Labour voters, the Labour party and the British electorate are incapable of seeing that the latter point is a far more plausible cause for the drop in support than his alternative irrational, deeply flawed argument.
