More on the coup -
The founder of Saving Labour, the website set up on the 25th June (the day before the resignations started), steps out of the shadows:
Saving Labour? The secretive battle to oust Jeremy Corbyn
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-37262869
It's interesting looking on the site because there isn't that much there to see. The facebook page is even more amusing, being as it has - mostly inhabited by Corbyn supporters ripping the place to shreds, although this may have changed slightly
In other news, the recent YouGov/Times poll has Corbyn set to re-win the leadership at 62% to 38% overall, an increased mandate
http://yougov.co.uk/news/2016/08/30/labo...-smith-24/
This corresponds nicely with the [amoff]full tally[/amoff] of CLP nominations, which stands as Corbyn - 282 and Smith - 51, with 50(?) remaining neutral
(a vote share of 67% to 33%)

I picked this slightly older (13th August) image, as its got on it the CLPs that have remained neutral, which actually outstripped the nominations for Smith at various points, leading some to joke about Smith coming third in a two horse race
The Outer Hebrides on the top left also went for Corbyn in the end, i think
But with the reports I have been reading of members/supporters being purged for spurious reasons, I am concerned as to how the final outcome will end up, especially with reports of Reg Race's rather unsettling confidence here.
Will their shenanegans actually work out?
