After Labour's, so far, terrible night for teh local elections, John McDonnell has come out blaming the media for Corbyn's bad look with the public.
Again, I will point out just a few instances where Corbyn, McDonnell & co only have themselves to blame.
1. "Bombs and Bullets could unite Ireland" said John McDonnell himself, in reference to supporting the IRA, he also said that those who disagreed with Sinn Fein should have their knees blown off.
2. Corbyn called Hamas & Hezbollah (the homophobic, women hating terrorists) friends, and invited them to parliament for a chat, possibly over a cup of tea, who knows.
3. Corbyn also thought that it was a good idea to make a political statement by not singing the national anthem at an event commemorating the soldiers who died for our freedoms
4. Back to McDonnell again, when he thought it was a good idea to make a joke about the Tories partnering up to China, he decided to bring out "Mao's Little Red Book", Mao being the name who killed around 60 million people is no joking matter
5. Diane Abbott not knowing her figures when asked about how much it would cost for an extra 10,000 police officers on the street. If you haven't heard it yet, (which I doubt) you can so here
6. Jon Ashworth, Shadow Secretary of State of Health, was repeatedly asked (even shouted at) by Piers Morgan is Labour would use Nuclear weapons if we were fired at, eventually Jon managed to yes (by this point Piers had lost his voice)
7. Corbyn, despite calling himself a feminist, gave all of the so called "top 5 jobs" within the Shadow Cabinet team, to men.
8. His ability to deal with the obvious growing anti-Antisemitism within the Labour party is particularly painful to watch. First of putting Ken "Hitler obsessed" Livingstone on the NEC was not a good idea, then during the press release of the inquiry into anti-Antisemitism within Labour, a Labour politician was "outed" by a Momentum Corbynista, and was overheard telling Jeremy Corbyn he had done so.
The MP was Ruth Smeeth, she walked out of the room visibly upset, and according to witnesses was even reduced to tears, Corbyn did nothing.
9. Jeremy also, when the IRA's bombing was at its height, stood for a minutes silence for 8 dead IRA terrorists. (Man of peace?)
10. Think I'll end with a John McDonnell favourite, when he said if he could travel back in time he would assassinate Margaret Thatcher.... lovely
So there's just 10 reasons why Labour have no-one but themselves to blame for what is looking more and more like a disastrous Labour Party defeat in just over a months time.
