Renton 17628 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Alistair Campbell has been expelled from the party for voting Liberal Democrats. What a petty cunt Corbyn is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob032 38 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Only open and outward support for another party would result in expulsion. I'm assuming this was an anonymous poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 13983 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 It's still a bit weird like. Are there exemptions for justified tactical voting? I'm sure there've been open "Labour voting Lib Dem to keep the Tories out" positions in by-elections before, say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify, nobody actually knows how people vote. Corbyn himself could have voted Tory for all we know. The offence is publicly supporting another party - which includes telling everyone you voted for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he did that reluctantly after being asked directly, after the election votes were known. I guess he should have just lied, like a normal politician then?

ewerk 26189 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 There was an interesting article earlier calling for a law that says there must be a GE within three months of a change in PM. Hard to argue with that idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
