A Plan To Win Elections

The anti-Corbyn Labour faction certainly has one, unlike Corbyn.
But it will likely deprive Labour’s Corbynsceptics of the myth that has now become mainstream: that Corbyn’s victory was the result of “other people”, that his opponents lost because of the Greens, etc. My guess, if the freeze date had been overturned, his opponents would have returned to that idea, no matter how big or how small the margin of victory. That might mean a change of approach for the Corbynsceptics after he wins. Currently ascendant is what one politician described as the "we have to call him a c**t every day until he f****s off" school of thought. Some are already planning for another challenge early in the New Year.
