Prime ministers question time analysis
Paula Anderson | 17.09.2015 06:09
Yesterday was the first Prime ministers questions time (PMQ) for Jeremy Corbyn since he became leader. He did not do well.
PM Cameron was easily able to deal with non-specific general questions from Corbyn which showed how inexperienced Corbyn is on major events of this kind.
His victory may or may not have been engineered by the Tories but the fact is he clearly is out of his depth with the big events of this kind and must now step down to allow a leader that win elections take over. Andy Burnham is the obvious choice.
Corbyn is a pleasant enough man and we all support some or much of what he says but as he proved yesterday he is not capable of leading the Labour party back into government.

Of course it was, only a fool thinks otherwise. When he stood up yesterday the cheers from the Tory benches were higher than the opposition ones ! The Tory press officer is already briefing 'off the record' on how they are going to make him front and centre of their campaign - they regard him as the best asset the Tory party has.
