"To those resigning from the shadow cabinet: good riddance. You've now made it clear that you had no intention of building a fairer country." -George Monbiot on Twitter (which I don't understand)

Well said, George - though I know you can be a bit of a nutter at times :-) - these people have severely diminished themselves and are clearly hoping for an early coup that will bring them hurriedly back to the table. Well I hope their careers are over. If ever a party needed the massive kick up the arse that's happened today, it's Labour. If the likes of Ummuna, Cooper, Reeves, Hunt, Miliband et al. start to come on Question Time or write columns in the papers briefing against Jeremy, they will do the party ten times more harm than Jeremy's election will ever do. They need to have a massive humility check and realise that they are all two-time losers. I believe this country wants to see an honest form of politics at long last, and it's my bet that, if Jeremy can hold the line on that front, it won't matter whether he's left, right, up or down. The people of this country will respond positively whatever. I confidently predict that the Tory spinners will be working overtime in the next few days and that Cameron is quaking in his bloody boots. A humble, straightforward honest broker versus a pompous, overblown, overgrown Eton boy - what's the betting!
