A new poll shows that Jeremy Corbyn is going nowhere

A new poll shows Jeremy Corbyn in a commanding position among members - if not his MPs. Something will have to give - but I don't think it will be Corbyn.

Returning to the United Kingdom yesterday, I made some soundings as to the state of the parties. “It’s dark as fuck,” was the verdict of one insider on Labour’s current predicament. “Things are going very well,” was another’s take. “Get back on your plane,” was the advice of one parliamentarian.

I then spent most of yesterday talking to Labour party members – and my impression, of a membership that is only growing more supportive of Jeremy Corbyn’s project, was confirmed by today’s Times/YouGov poll.
