Jimmy, to learn something you have to accept that there is a gap in your knowledge...or that you have got something very fundamental, wrong.
So they are not going to learn because there is no acceptance that the problem exists in the Labour Party because it no longer represents the people it was formed to promote, protect and serve.

Jeremy Corbyn has said that the poor Labour performance was all down to Brexit(and yes, to a large degree it was a part of it) he does not accept that anything he said or did was to blame.
The fact that after the referendum, ALL parties promised that this would be delivered....but there were MP's(in all parties) who thought that we poor uneducated bunch did not know what the consequences of our vote would be.
They thought (arrogantly) that they knew better than those they are supposed to serve.
There lies the problem.
Our own MP was scathing about us being given the opportunity to decide the direction the country should pursue...he disagreed and did much to thwart the process....he did nothing much for the borough anyway.
If he wrote his achievements on the back of a stamp, he would still have room for the works of Shakespeare....so we are well rid of him....and he won't starve...he could always go back to ppie crimping.
