Trot On, Or Trot Off

I respect Tom Watson is so very many ways.

But, even allowing for the fact that the Labour Party is more left-wing in many non-Labour areas than it is in many of the heartlands, it is quite beyond ridiculous to suggest that this country's significant centres of Trotskyist activity include Rochester and Strood, Poole, Horsham, Lincoln, East Worthing and Shoreham, Argyll and Bute, Bury St Edmunds, Canterbury, and Thurrock.

All of those Constituency Labour Parties have made supporting nominations of Jeremy Corbyn.

The average age of people joining the Labour Party is 51. They are in places such as these. Yet still the hysteria persists, and indeed grows.
