UPDATE: Since I wrote this the Tories have a 4 point lead over Labour... after these few disastrous months, the Tories are somehow still seen more of a trustworthy party than Corbyn's Labour
I don't watch PMQs anymore. Why? Well Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn are hardly worth the watch.
However, during yesterday's PMQs, I do read tweets about it afterwards, apparently Corbyn "demanded" something from the Prime Minister.
Now normally if an opposition leader "demands" something from their counter part, it's in the news, perhaps even makes headlines.
However, the only paper to announce that Corbyn was "demanding" anything from the PM was Corbyn friendly newspaper The Guardian, no-one else, even other Corbyn supporting papers like the Independent, even mentioned this.
The Prime Minister has a lot of trouble, she's just survived a vote of confidence from her MPs, unlike Corbyn who lost his.
As well as troubles because of her ill drawn deal with the EU.
Yet despite Mrs May's troubles, having an efficient opposition leader is not one of them. You would reckon that Labour, or at least Mr Corbyn would jump at the opportunity to take her down once and for all.
Instead, he's doing the odd bit of "demanding" that no-one is paying attention to, and he himself can't get a stance on Brexit.
Ed Mililband wasn't exactly a fantastic leader, but at least we know where he stands on Brexit, and what stance he and the Labour Party would have taken by now.
Unlike Corbyn, who seems incapable of making a stance.
Corbyn might as well not be there in Westminster, because his presence means nothing, his demands mean nothing, and he has absolutely nothing to say.
