Tory preparations for the coming vote have been ruthless. Jeremy Corbyn must keep pace – by backing referendum-with-remain, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

A general election is coming, and Boris Johnson’s ruthlessness in preparing for it has provoked private pangs of jealous admiration among prominent leftwingers. There’s no messing around here: opponents and critics have been purged and an unapologetic hard-right, ultra-Brexit administration has been formed. Where Jeremy Corbyn would be denounced for Stalinist authoritarianism, Johnson is applauded for strong decisive leadership.

OwenJones84 General election ASAP is the answer to all questions and hopefully people will b choosing the right person and an honest man after all that times JC!! 🌹🙏

I remember Owen saying absolutely no chance of No Deal happening around the new year, I believed him. Not to mention his meltdown against jeremycorbyn before 2017 election. None of us can predict the future of politics, not even OwenJones84.

Sorry Jones, but if if Boris doesn't finish Labour, then Farage will!!!

OwenJones84 No hubris in Labour? Labour’s full of hubris. Labour needs introspection & an end to their denial & smug self-righteousness before they can confront Boris Johnson who is a loathsome human being.

OwenJones84 At this stage and in these circumstances, I think it hardly matters who's leading the labour party. If labour are indeed to campaign on a remain ticket then it's a straight shootout. Leave without a deal and live with the consequence, or stay as we are. Owt else can wait.

OwenJones84 As soon as labour ditch Corbyn they might have a small chance. At the moment they have no chance.

How many people turned up to Corbyn’s rally outside Parliament? Face it man, you’ve backed the wrong horse, which casts serious doubt on your political judgement as a commentator.

The crybaby's dummy has popped out again, aunty Julia needs to put him back in his cot, he's the proverbial pain in the *rse.

OwenJones84 This man should be our prime minister!

Incredible an election looms and Labour are lagging in the polls against the worst Tory Govt of all time succeeded by its successors.

Typical of Owen Jones. LGBTQ+ spitting bile because they know Bojo is about to put the Marxist Misandry lesbian run Ministry of Women and Equalities out of their biased evil cloisters very soon. That's a few billion saved to help fund our poor families and our hungry kids.

It appears that the whole of the Guardian editorial team and commentariat have been 'triggered' by Johnson. Still can't figure out how the London centric middle-class think Labour will win anything if they alienate their working class vote in the north.

OwenJones84 Labour must get its house in order, trouble is that requires leadership

OwenJones84 Does it loom? I don’t see Boris making the same mistake as Theresa May. He doesn’t want to risk any Brexit MPs, loss of majority, increase in Lib Dem MPs, hung parliament/coalition government. His goal is to do nothing to 1st Nov. Opposition parties have no joint plan to force GE

Good grief......Dêja vu.......all over again.......

OwenJones84 Not just hubris, to target his lies his record and his nonchalance in getting to power. We must work collectively to bring down the idiotface

Hahahahaha most of the country wouldn't trust that ira loving Hama's loving Hezbollah loving terrorist sympathiser far left crazy party

Owen Jones. Who’s he?

We get the governments we deserve. Anyone who thinks that after 1200 odd yrs Britain is going to dissolve after Brexit can carry on licking windows or piss off. I wonder why the internationally recognised sobriquet 'Whinging Pom' came into being? Chin up blossoms won't be long

There are those in parliament who work for the people and there are those who work for the EU (central bankers), learn the difference. The country didn’t collapse after the Brexit vote like people breathlessly states it would. Whose who don’t want a no deal Brexit are compromised

The lack of comment, let alone commitment by JC on either Brexit or anti-semitism leaves Labour with a hill too high to climb

By no means a fan of Owen Jones but he has nailed it when he says UKLabour need to fight an election on Remain. We will then see if the country wants a Tory hard Brexit or Labour remain ....you will be getting 2 elections in 1 Brexit GeneralElection Labour

As soon as this doesn’t say ‘replace Corbyn with someone who’s actually any good’, it becomes utterly irrelevant.

Labour ain't winning anything with the IRA rimming marxist in charge
