Jeremy was democratically elected by the membership of the party, and MPs are more than aware that they could trigger a leadership election with 20% of the PLP nominating a candidate. However, they also know that a challenger is unlikely to be successful standing against Jeremy Corbyn, which is why they're trying to bully him out instead.I dont like Corbyn myself, but what is going on is just nasty, it seems the party are trying to bully out a man who was democratically voted with the biggest mandate in history.
