Here’s an interesting solution to Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn conundrum says a Politico journalist: MP Frank Field, Chair of the DWP Select Committee a party veteran, reckons MPs could elect their own leader in parliament and form a group called “People’s Labour” if the party suffers heavy losses in the June 8 election. Field has stated that if a majority of MPs backed a parliamentary leader, they could seek to declare that person the official leader of the opposition.
With Labour, significantly behind in the polls, there has been rife speculation that Labour MPs may try to unseat Corbyn or break away after the election. Frank Field has been in Parliament for 38 years and he holds a lot of respect from fellow Labour parliamentarians.
