Media playback is unsupported on your deviceJeremy Corbyn says he did"everything he could" to get Labour into power and he will not"walk away" until another leader is elected.
Former Labour MP John Mann said the leader's unpopularity on the doorstep was palpable and Mr Corbyn should have"gone already". Mr Corbyn said he wouldn't step down as leader yet because the"responsible thing to do is not to walk away from the whole thing," adding that it was likely a new leader would be selected in the early part of next year.
"My whole strategy was to reach out beyond the Brexit divide to try and bring people together because ultimately the country has to come together."
He did everything he could except deliver Brexit.
When everything is nowhere near enough, you step away. Pity it’s too late. misguided
His biggest failure was not recognising that he was not popular and stepping aside....
It was obvious that you would never be PM to just about everybody but you. Your not CEO of a company, you're there to represent the views of the people who don't want to decay under right wing conservative oppression. A leader these days needs to be charismatic as well as driven
It is unfortunate that you didn't take note earlier that as a leader you left a lot to be desired. So sad because you spoiled Labour's chance of winning the election.
Yep.everything but what mattered
Best thing for you was not to lead the Labour party in the first place. Because your unpopularity Labour has lost the chance to change this country. Now we are stuck again for another 5 years. Don't blame brexit for your loss.
Yep ....into the abyss.
He was working for the tories all the time and destroyed the Labour Party possibly for a generation.
....into the wilderness where I have always lived.
No you didnt. You could have stood your ground and delivered brexit and then negotiated a deal. You could have gone into every interview and explained every attack by corrupt media like the BBC called out the racism called out the xenophobia.
Best thing Corbyn can do now for the Labour Party is to resign immediately.
The Chief Rabbi, Watson and some Racist Bigot Jews are also to blame. Corbyn was always unelectable but the magnitude of defeat was not all his.
Down the garden path
You were the better candidate. You were clear, calm and articulate. Boris was inarticulate, lied and was gaffe prone. I think we should look elsewhere to find the flaws in the campaign.
And it wasn’r T enough Jeremy time to go and ket some one smarter in
Your the soul reason labour never won this or the 2017 election 😁
Apart from gain the trust of the people
Yes you did. Into disaster.
Looking at some ofthe people on this page. Take a damn good look at yourselves. You're as bad as the scum media.
Except listen to people outside your communist bubble.
Yep Jezza and how did that work out
It is not his fault labour parties every where are falling apart. Noone believes labour based parties anymore. They sound very popular prior to election and results show otherwise. They are more in the media than in the grass roots.
I feel so bad for him he is better man then the other clown any day😢
Terrorist sympathizer, champagne socialist. No clue.
No you fucked it up and I’m so pleased....
You successfully did everything you could bye bye don’t come back
Everything but the right thing: Remain.
No you really didn't. The main thing you didn't do was listen to the electorate as you've just found out.
mostly the Media's fault that corbyn lost the election. now we are in a third world country like America.
Into the abyss.
Well done Corbyn. You did exactly what we wanted you to do and remain as Labour leader. ....and we got the result we knew we'd get with you there.
Posted last year that the best thing you could do for your party was to piss off but no, you had to stay and screw things up,just like kinnock did all those years ago!
Lmfao...you got demolished!
The one thing you failed to do.... Resign
Not to quote GreenDay , but nice guys really do finish last
Except resign !
You was not listening to your voters, and paid the price.
He did not. Ears shut and ego dominatingb
You did everything but resign.
You fell under a stone of weight of lies & greed. Money will always kill honestly. Justice today is a fairytale. Lies & corruption rains. I’m so sad for England 🏴 I’m so sad for our people wether rich or poor. This country has been lost forever. 😢
The world’s financial markets obviously thought Corbyn would be a disaster... Sterling up... FTSE up... and people feeling more positive...
Please get Jess Phillips in as Leader
Except lead them to victory
Ah well....bye now
No you didn‘t! You‘re a wobbler
Apart from the ‘leading’ bit
Yeah right
FOOL
What a crock of shite he was leading a party but not prepared to stand up to any decisions, only to be impartial. Good bye mr Corbyn
You'll get them next time, champ. Chin up.
He was deluded, people don’t trust him, his top team are a joke. His pledges to give us everything for free were unachievable, people don’t want 1970s socialism with re-nationalised industries, he needed to accept the trust had been irretrievably damaged over his Brexit stance
Him with Abbott in tow were unelectable. I’m surprised Labour got the votes they did.
You did a great job.....I voted for Boris
Right off a cliff. Good show.
Horrific person with a terrible past, people remember and won’t have him in power.
Disgrace
jeremycorbyn It was a fix. Trump and his new Puppet Boris bent every rule possible to Veto your campaign. Thoroughly disgusted at the result.
No one doubts that. However, you need to go now. Good luck and make the transfer of leadership quickly.
the election wont matter ultimately some day we'll need a socialist government what's important is that Corbyn held up a mirror and forced us to stare into the ugly face of Britain, let us see what we were becoming and we smashed the mirror
Except see that your popularity was waning. Sad day all round but at the end of the day... the ‘people’ won’t tolerate a left wing party now.
But he didn’t really.
Corbyn must go now, we need a centrist labour party, get Blair back, uk people will not vote for left wing policies. Do you really need me to state the obvious. You’ve let the conservatives in!
Except listen!!!
Here’s the real kicker, Diane Abbott could be in line to lead the party when he leaves!
Go away.
Says a man full of hatred.
Perhaps. But the question should be whether jeremycorbyn did enough to win power? Tragically confused brexit policy & voters didn’t trust him with the nhs.
Failed to listen to the people though
Labour needs to rid themselves of this too far left socialist movement. Corbyn, McDonnell and union leader Mccluskey all need to retire. There are very good younger fresher labour candidates who can help find their feet again. We as a country need a strong opposition.
He didn't fails its just the majority of people over the age of 35 voted conservative, the younger generation voted labour.
You’re obviously sh*t then Jezza. Prob best if you dont try any form o leadership again, frankly
Corbyn needs to resign.
Yes...Into the dustbin.
Litterly know 20 people that voted conservative just cuz they hated Corbyn
Goodbye Labour Party !
Sat on the fence on Brexit, anti-sematic and no personality.
No he didn't, he didn't resign after failing to win against Teresa
Corbyn & Abbott the terrorist sympathisers out of the picture, a sigh of relief never more welcome😁👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴
Corbyn the best reason for not voting Labour closely followed by Abbott
😂😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️🎅🤶😂😂
But failed to understand he lacked sufficient leadership skills to do so effectively!
Is anyone else sick of BBC staff analysing the result and interviewing anyone who will stop and talk to them and these interviewers with pathetic voices being patronising. What a waste of money.
Go to Pakistan
JC says it is up to national executive of the Labour Party as to when he goes. Part of the problem is the composition of the NEC which comprises of socialists and unionists far removed from the values of the average voter. If Labour wants to be in government it needs to broaden.
Time for Chauncey Gardiner to go back to the garden (or in his case, the allotment)
He could not lead a dog.
I don't believe he did and neither do the people.
Here is a closet Conservative. It’s the only explanation for his actions in destroying the Labour Party. Get rid of Momentum - great job Jeremy.
😂😂😂
Except stand down....
The only thing you were supposed to do is stand aside after the last election and you didn't do brought unfortunately these results.
Yeah he really did do everything he could except LEAD ,this weak willed racist ignorant arrogant dismissive man was reason number 1 labour lost not once but twice yet he blames others shame on him...he needs to resign today like he would be calling others to if he won.🤚
Jeremy Corbyn slowly became our weakest link. I didn't vote Labour out of respect for Labour, but his dithering on BREXIT and no longer any spark to come off the fence caused a lot of traditional voter's to change. Wish him well, but now is the time to heal and prepare for BREXIT
.....Lead them into a ditch yes😂
Now watching BBC propaganda. The longer I live the less I trust the BBC.
....including 4+ years on the fence. Get thee gone!
jeremycorbyn obviously they are unleadable or you cannot lead or you did not rid them of the wrong people.
I do think you are a nice and ideological man with good intentions and principles. But jeremycorbyn , I hate to break it to you - you are an awful leader and just not a PM material. You should have done the right thing a long time ago and not put our country in this position.
If this is leading Labour party.... He threw it under the truck..
Except denounce anti-Semitism or declare a clear Brexit position. Jeez!
One nation Scotland part of Britain.
Stitched up by the BILLIONAIRE pro Tory media machine AND also the victim of constant attack courtesy of the Anti-Corbyn smear campaign. jeremycorbyn is a true leader.
Go now you killed labour!
all you have done is destroy the party, you have been nothing more than the media’s puppet, you are the laughing stock of world politics
Except only listen to the few and not the many
Except for not being the leader
You still here🤔
Best man for the job him and Micheal Foot
You promised the Sun the Moon and the Stars and yet people saw right through your bribery. The reality is you are a third rate politician completely out of his depth even as leader of the opposition. YOUR FAULT.
Even staunch Labour supporters could not support you. You made your own bed....
Can’t even make a simple decision to just go. Useless.
Yet Corbyn must now realise he lacks 'any qualities required of a leader, mental agility, articulacy, strategy, good humour or charisma.'
Good riddance to the Marxist ..He and his henchmen have set the Labour Party back by a decade leaving the UK with no effective opposition. Anyone sane saw this coming years ago.
LOOOOSSSERRRR
He did to be fair... In the wrong direction!
Really 👏👏👏👏👏👏Good riddance and please could you take with you: Diane Abbott, Mcdonnell , Raynor ., Laura Pidcock , Thornberry , and Long Bailey . Then we might start to envisage a credible Labour Party with a lot of the debris removed . sure the list could be longer
Ha you did your best and Labour performed the worst ever!!! Ha ha! What a leader!!!
Jeremy Corbyn,John McDonnell,Eddie Shizzard,Diane (2 left feet)Abbott............your boys took a hell of a beating !
Except listen
He did everything he could, but he did it badly!
You couldn't lead a dog around a park.
Yes, you led them straight down the toilet.
Best of luck Jeremy Corbyn, you did your best but it did not work out for you. The one think you can't do these days is get on the wrong side of the British public and take them for fools.
Thank you jeremycorbyn . The only good thing out of this is that man smeared, abused and above all unfairly treated by those charged with ensuring fair treatment ,managed to keep his principles , dignity and respect of man. You stood for many but their are few like you
Apart from apologise or resign earlier
really? A leader takes responsibility. Something he has failed to do. Now he just failed.
..'but I couldn't make my mind up about anything !!'
It’s always tough when the electorate isn’t buying what you’re selling.
And it worked, if it was into the Abis, Prick
Now is the time to stop papering over the cracks and realise that the success of Blair and Brown has ultimately been to deny to the population as a whole the rationale far left politics in a modern democratic state. Neither do we need the far right......
BLIMP! 🤣🤣🤣
Whatever now sod off.
Palpable delusion - utterly out of touch with the very people he claims to represent
Yes, into a Marxist party. Well done sunshine, you succeeded. Unfortunately for You, the British don't vote for Marxist parties.
Apart from resigning,.
But it clearly was not enough on several occasions.
Go just go !!
lottyleeming Judging by many of the comments here it looks like a lot of people who are doing just fine are celebrating that a lot of people who aren't doing fine are going to be worse off. Either that or they aren't doing fine themselves and... well, got nothing 😐
lottyleeming This is absolutely not true.
May have stood a chance if a Gardener. His Hedge at his front door badly needs trimming!!
All that interview said to me was Corbyn: 'I'm doing everything I can to make myself look like a victim' - He blamed everything and everyone but himself.
Still believes his policies were the right ones and still negativity pours out of his mouth. We’re leaving the EU shackles which should put more money into the country not the EU
Well let’s be fair here, we had a good 6 months of everyone telling him where he was going wrong and not much changed. Still though, his cabinet backed him and the manifesto so it was ultimately a collective failure.
I want to thank him... He was the perfect Christmas gift for the Conservatives to ensure we won this election! 😂
The man had absolutely no integrity, not once has he acknowledged that it’s him and his daft policies that caused this humiliation, just keeps blaming Brexit and the media
Couldn’t lead a dog to the park
He should have resigned in the early hours. By not standing down he is harming the the remnants of the Labour Party. Shambolic.
But not enough Jeremy
He was a failure that achieved nothing. God what a waste of time and money.
Corbyn was too stubborn he wasn't flexible. He should of supported remain went to people's vote rallies. He should of stepped down sooner. Labour could of formed alliance with Lib Dems and others. Labour failed to seize the opportunity had. Being neutral on Brexit wrong too.
Wet lettuce with a neutral stance. I am a labour voter but couldn’t vote for labour this time because of you.. why don’t you listen to the real reason why you lost instead of blaming others.jeremycorbyn
😂
Except lead.
In neutral
To destroy Labour! (And you succeeded! 👏🏻)
Lead lemming …
Diane Abbott for leader 🗳
Like a blind guide dog
Look, just close the door on your way out. The allegiances of the past, the socialism of Lenin, the current policies written for a matinee and no Tinkerbelle to grant your wish. Finally, the whitewash report on anti-semitism by Baroness Chakrabati (ennobled as a result). Nope.
Time to resign JC!
Just listened to Wes streeting on sky WOW ,10/10 guy says it how it is.💪💪💪
Except for having a cogent policy on Brexi and clearing up the anti semitism...
Bit embarrassing tho wasn't it..👀
Well you lost your core vote up north! Stand down and let someone decent run Labour.
Lead? Or ruin?
Is there a bit missing from the quote...'to electoral collapse.'
Did you though.... me thinks you were doing it for your own selfish self.....
You should have picked a side, you can’t expect people to follow you when they don’t know what side you’re on. You should never have stood as neutral. You also should have dealt with antisemitism and let’s face it....you shouldn’t have supported the IRA! Resign NOW!
Poor, misunderstood commie. Ahead of his time, just like Marx.
And failed go away
Toxic, obnoxious individual!
To rack and ruin, well he managed that successfully.
Into a terrorist IRA Isis loving and welcoming UK lol bye steptoe
I will always support Jeremy, he is the reason I joined the party
Into obscurity.
Just step aside
You mean apart from stepping down when it was shown you were inept? Labours loss is your fault.
Must have been difficult for him without the Soviet Union for support.
Down the road to extinction!
The wrong person to lead, and last night clearly proved it.
He would have been the change this country needs. Changing the party so that it resembles the tories like war criminal blair did helps no one. Corbyn was and is a genuine human being. Everyone got conned by the billionaire media barons
This man is blind except to a particular supporter. And he was blinded by a greed for power. Integrity, as I define it, requires awareness of self. It is hard to argue by that definition that he has integrity. However, within a false reality, he is not lying.
No you did not. you tried to please everyone - failed miserably to provide a clear stance on Brexit whilst putting forward ridiculous spending plans. Labour etc paid the price for stabbing the electorate in the back on Brexit, and failing to move on and resolve NHS etc issues.
Oh no you didn’t
Into oblivion?
🤣
Bercow and Jeremy can both go down to the pub now...
there,s something about the bloke seems to be a bit off snake🙂
Like apologise for your antisemitic approach jeremycorbyn? Well you couldn’t really could you...?...it is after all your nature to be so. Resign, go grab a break in Israel - you’ll be most welcome I’m sure 👍
Corbyn is suffering from a the most severe case of the Dunning Kruger effect I've ever seen. Sadly there is no cure!
Lemmings
Unlaccckkkkkky
Did everything he could but make a solid decision and stick to it !
I obeyed my handlers, carried out every order from my comasa McDonald and tried my best to ensure we would bankrupt the economy if we had managed to fool the stupid proletariat into voting us into power.
Wrong!
Let me finish the tweet “Jeremy Corbyn: ‘I did everything I could to lead Labour into defeat and 10 years of rebuilding public trust”
Not well enough, time to say goodbye and let someone else have a go.
jeremycorbyn you single handily crushed the Labour Party! For this we thank you!!!
Jeremy Corbyn, Welcome to the *ash heap of history*. CorbynOut
Should have let someone who wasnt a terrotist sympathiser lead
Yeah, to abyss!
Why all the media are so bogged down with UKLabour loss, MOVE ON, despite all the negative vibes around NHS sale, BREXIT, Boris and Conservative cuts, people did vote overwhelmingly for Conservatives, show respect to people’s vote and talk about future.
You lead them tighg to the grave
Happy Retirement Comrade Dither and Delay jeremyCorbyn the country you hate so much won't miss you
I agree. He did tried, and was passionate. 😏
Deluded
Yes no one is saying you didn't, it is just that you are totally unelectable to start with.
The ego has crashed landed
BBC did everything they could to smear him. You’re aren’t getting another license fee payment from me! boycottbbc
Says a lot about him if that was his best efforts. Too long listening to radical idealists instead of the public and proper experts.
I agree,trouble is you led it into the wilderness.
What a load of bollocks about blaming the media for corbyns dismal performance. It's the same media as 2007, only now you have the whole grass-root-social-media campaigning going on to counter it. If anything your chances should have improved.
Lead in a direction most labour voters didn’t want to go
Hold your head up high. The lumpen proletariat will learn the hard way.
Enjoy Venezuela.......
.... over the nearest cliff.
And did a great job now get gone loser 😂😂😂👍😂👍👍👍😂😂
Which, in and of itself, was the problem.
What is wrong with the world? Trump? Brexit?
Maybe just maybe if he'd actually helped deliver brexit instead of fence sitting he might have had a chance.
The Hiliary Clinton of UK losing to a very beatable opponent.
Noooo labour cos of you....🤡
No you didn’t you couldn’t even decide which side of the fence you sat on for Brexit leaderslead people who don’t make decisions FOLLOW
And everything you could to stop Brexit 🤬
Too defeat
Clearly didn't as you polled the lowest for Labour since 1935....Deluded, just like your brand of politics....Off you trot..
And you did everything you could to stop him.
Did everything wrong. All you needed to do was listen! You didn’t
That’s the problem you are not a leader.
A proper man would have resigned, instead he is hanging on , trying to set up another disaster. Why not give it McDonnell or Rayner? The Tories would be in forever if so. We are effectively a one party state now.....not healthy.
Ah sooooo sad but guess what 🎊🎉🎊🎊🎊🎊🎂 Boris Won
Couldn’t even manage to look credible next to a buffoon like Johnson. Any half decent leader could and would have won. Time for the Labour Party to take a long hard look at itself. They learned nothing in Scotland
And lost them thousands of votes 😡
The Beeb done all they could to discredit, obfuscate facts about Jk and promote opposition through partial journalism with bbclaurak Fox News pound shop media ! Unacceptable
He did everything he could to get brexit over the line. Now he’s being stood down for another puppet. I wonder who Putin has in mind.
Hahahahahaha 😂
Your Programme was an example to the centre left of the world - thank you for bringing hope back to politics. Sadly, the Brexit concept crushed your chances, Labour needed to support it and they didn’t and you lost abysmally.
But you didn't give the right messages to the electorate. People see through the crass spending pledges.. People see through the failure to apologise for being anti-Semitic. I'm sorry but you failed.
commie_hat Including whipping his MPs to invoke article 50 without the promised deal
Peak humility :)
Did you renounce your support for the IRA?
😯😯😯😯
I will remain neutral As labour supporters become increasingly anti Semitic
He was the very antithesis of a leader. He just destroyed the Labour party..
jeremycorbyn is to blame for this election result. After David_Cameron, jeremycorbyn will be to blame for enabling Brexit. For Christ's sake, jeremycorbyn, get the hell out of our lives.
M.T.H.!
I know Jez. But your best was never going to be good enough. Too much baggage and promoted beyond your station.
He did everything wrong in the best way he knew how . Friday13th unlucky for some . Lucky for others . Let's move on .
Egg on your face springs to mind !
I think he did every thing he could to obstruct the will of the people.
Are you still there?...you should have gone by now...people have rejected you and your politics...
Let this be a wake-up call to all purveyors of political correctness. It's usually expressed with a liitle sigh and a heavy heart by self deluding narcissists. We don't want it JeremyCorbyn & DianeAbbott as it's unfair and dangerous. BBC & Channel4 take note!
Pass the Batten over to Diane Abbot...Pleeeeeeeeezzzzeeee
And you CorbynOut got destroyed
Lead them to destruction... 💥☠️😬
If that was everything, fake news, suspect documents, car crash interviews, well in certainly glad Boris won and not you.
Comedy gold
We love you Jeremy. Thank you for all you did ❤️🙏🏾🌹
Thick as mince Labour Party and their lefty loonie supporters. Betray the will of the people and Karma will tear you a new arsehole 😅
Hesitate to kick a man when he’s down, but time to go, now
Where did it all go so wrong Jeremy Time to throw in the towel !!!
'badly'
More of a man than Boris will ever be.
... to ensure that Labour was unelectable!!
