    Oh yeah. It's all fault of those Labour MPs re-elected with increased majorities. Would have been much better for us to lose. Goodbyehttps://twitter.com/arainmunda/status/873139840585539586 …

        Can tell he didn't go out on the doorsteps. If he had, he would know there were thousands of non Corbynites battling alongside others to win

        There might have been Corbynites and non Corbynites fighting to win seats, but unity from the beginning is a big deal to many. (1/2)

        He was the nodding dog, the nice, friendly and polite man who listens intently and then does whatever John McDonnell tells him

        And this is the kind of conversation I'd hope @MikeGapes would have with a constituent who voted for him. Instead he blocked me. #classy

        I'm sorry but that kind of behaviour a day after a great result for Labour and Ilford South is the sort of thing @realDonaldTrump would do.

        To earn respect, not to demand unquestioning loyalty.

        I tweeted Mike, asking whether now Labour have done well whether he would back Corbyn - He didn't really back him before.

        Did Corbyn or McDonnell back Blair when he won in 1997?.

        Your increased majority is down to the popularity of the party, under Corbyn, not your own personal popularity. Think on that.

      Your overly dramatic response is the very opposite of the point raised, Mike.
