Supposedly Labour is going to lose a lot of councillor seats. They had a row/dispute about anti-Semitic undertones among some party members that Corbyn never dealt with effectively.
Yeah, I know. And frankly some of them have some of it coming.
That's what I was concerned about, so good.
And on top of that, Labour's structural problems are so dire that the Tories will pretty much occupy 10 Downing for the foreseeable future unless all of the following things happen:
1. Labour somehow gains traction and topples some of the Scottish nationalists. Labour's path to a majority is virtually impossible without Scotland unless there is some incredible crisis that the Tories are blamed for.
2. Labour stops losing voters to UKIP and gains them back. Some blue collar workers are flocking to Farage in the UK over anti-immigrant feelings just like they are flocking to Trump in the States.
3. Labour finds a leader who is between Corbyn (too far left for the UK) and Blair (too moderate). They swung from one extreme to the other and have a leader who is as unpopular and lowly regarded as Tony Benn in the 80s. Maybe Khan, who looks like he will win the London election, is that guy.
4. Labour gets the anti-Semites out of their party. The Tories will pretty much beat them like a drum over this.
5. Labour and the Lib-Dems come closer together than they have been in some time to develop a coalition if the votes are there for Labour to potentially form a minority government. There is serious bad blood between Lab and Lib over Clegg selling out to Cameron
