I heard him being interviewed on radio this morning. The main question was about the UK General Election which Jeremy Corbyn is calling for. You get used to politicians being evasive when it suits them but he wouldn't answer the basic question 'What would the Labour Party manifesto say about Brexit?'!
He was equally evasive about the investigation into Alex Salmond and ongoing investigations into Labour Party members in Scotland. Every time the Labour Party in Scotland elects a new leader they seem to come up with a bigger numpty than the one before.

They answer nothing these days, not a thing.

I like quite a lot of Corbyn's policies but their complete lack of any kind of firm Brexit position is infuriating and dare I say it, a bit cowardly.
As much as I dislike the Conservatives at least most of them have nailed their colours to either Remain or Leave with a few flip flopping about the place when it's considered politically expedient for their careers but even that's done in plain sight.
Labour have exactly the same split in their party but seem to be more intent on dodging the issue so they don't face the same level of scrutiny on their Brexit position (and by extension the similar very public in fighting the Tories have gone through). It's the old political trick of stepping in when your adversary implodes which is why they're calling for an election now.

That Labour woman on Question time was a hoot and a classic example of robotic answering.
It's like they are trained not to hear the question but to just read out a pre-prepared load of gobbledegook - no matter how many times the question is repeated. In effect they just exhaust the questioner till he/she gives up.

Don't understand why Labour are wanting another GE because I don't think they are electable

Latest polls in Scotland will see them getting routed. If they favour Brexit which Corbyn does and have it in a manifesto their suppprt in Scotland will fall to 2015 level.
They never learn in Scotland do they ?
Their leaders keep getting worse just when you think it would be impossible to get any worse, they manage to pluck another gem.
Dugdale, Murphy, Lamont, then throw in a Bailey, Gray for good measure and now the incumbent Leonard.......thick as mince the lot of them.
