Eh this thread is showing some of the common misconceptions about JC- labour members don’t see him as the messiah, it’s just that a vocal vanguard (that’s simply more well organised than progress) defend him.

He’s still Leader because there’s no-one in the PLP who A.) wants to get rid of him B.) Can win 50% of the membership. There is no mechanism for the PLP to get rid of him: and there’s no way they’re going to win with whoever they’d send over the trenches

The Labour Party never gets rid of it’s leaders; and they generally like there leaders. It’s still remarkable that Smith was able to get 193K members (iirc there were that many members in Labour in the mid 00s) to vote for him in the 2016 election.
