Is there any way to get back to a normal membership fee and a one member, one vote system? Not to remove Mr Corbyn, as I would find that to be cheating, but it's likely he'll be leaving in 2020 if not before.

Can I suggest that we all completely ignore Solomon1. As that's the only way this thread will function.

He would appear to be either a Momentum activist intent on getting threads removed or an idiot intent on getting threads removed. You decide.

I think that Mr Corbyns latest idea will be his downfall when he relies on his here today gone tomorrow clicktivists instead of people who knock on doors, deliver leaflets, stuff envelopes and call voters. They are very noisy but they do not actually DO anything that requires an effort and elections are only won by people who DO things to get elected. Corbyn: Digital campaigning will take Labour back to power

 

I save this 2010 article for these discussions. Clicktivism is ruining leftist activism

Seconded. Perhaps then we could have a sensible discussion.

 

Maybe after election defeat in 2020 they'll realise that continuing the vote system that lead to said defeat is unwise. I guess it depends whose interest it would be in.

I've never understood why affiliated unions have voting rights at all, let alone equal rights with full members.
