Labour doesn't have a lot of viable options to replace him. That may speak louder about the state of Labour than having a party leader with bad ratings.

They did have a guy for that, but media is like "No no no"

If you're referring to Corbyn, I will gladly refer you to the results of the last election.

You mean the +6.66% lead as opposed to the +0.86% lead?

Yeah, replacing Corbyn after the nonstop media hitjob with a guy who is Tony Blair 2.0 will definetely save Labour...

I mean the media is also piling on Starmer so I'm not sure I agree with this point
