        Without constant undermining from people like you we could have had a majority. Don't assume yr constituents agree with you on leadership

        At some point PLP is going to have to stop putting fingers in ears & whistling, hoping Corbyn & left Labour go away. He's been vindicated.

        ...together might. I actually think Jess and Jez working together would be a massive vote winner in the future. I believe in both of them.

        It's thanks to your voters backing Corbyn that you've still got a job love. Do you speak to all your constituents that way? #shameful

        Absolutely disgraceful behaviour. Reminds me so much of some teenager girls I come across in schools. Attention seeking and rude plain rude.

        You are absolutely free to disagree - I was wrong, I thanked people for responses. We all make mistakes. You don't have to be so rude.
