Before you brand me a leftie which I'm not.

Doesn't it seem everything is going wrong for him. Everyone trying to overthrow him now they are taking his constituent. I feel sorry for him. I'd rather he win or lose fair and square.

Jeremy Corbyn's parliamentary seat 'could be abolished' - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-37342828

Cannock

Just saw it on the news, Jeremy Corbyn, Diane Abbott and Emily Thornberry's seats could all be merged into one constituency. Wonder which two of those 3 will be put out to grass?

I am sure he must feel as you say but in fairness it is an exercise by the Electoral Commission to balance Constituencies and reduce the number of MPs from 655 to 600. The idea is to make each vote count the same and reduce the costs of Parliament.

The democratic issue has been that historically Labour needed fewer votes to get more MPs. This change will balance that unfairness. But already Labour are labelling it a stitch up.

All they need to do after that is get rid of about 400 Lords and Ladies....

I don't doubt the reason. It's a bit fishy or it's plain old bad luck.

It is just part of population movement,my constituency will be merged,at present it is a marginal seat which means my vote counts.

If it goes ahead we will become a labour seat however I vote,it is swings and roundabouts.

There will be plenty of safe lefty seats for Corbyn to fight unfortunately,many in the North West.I wish they would abolish Corbyn but it wont happen

This has been going on for years!! It was talked about in the 2010 elections. A year ago nobody outside the looney left had even heard of Corbyn and the decision would have been planned well back then. Still, it couldn't have happened to a better person.

Has anyone else heard of him? Except me. I knew of him 30 years ago.
