Hello ugifvbot ! Thank your correcting my video . Yours , weirdo <| sep |> Benn knew it was a time of national crisis indeed , that is what spurred him to act Corbyn was depriving the country of any effective Opposition through his incompetence . Benn ' s ' political agenda ' was to ensure there was an effective Opposition . He was trying to remove an impediment to this . He was under no obligation to resign in a way that would be convenient to Corbyn or approved of by you . I have little concern for the inner workings of the tory party . Irrelevant to the question . This is about parliamentary democracy . Is it okay for MPs in such a democracy to remove any leader they feel is incompetent in the way they see fit , or isn ' t it ? All the other politicians either had a chance at leading the country or standing for election . They weren ' t ' given a chance ', they earned the right . They did this , in part , by winning and maintaining the confidence of their colleagues ndash something Corbyn has never done . In any case , why is that the rule ? Even if it is the rule , for some reason , it doesn ' t even apply to Corbyn , who fought several sets of elections , with patchy results , but not a GE . It does apply to Blair and Thatcher , who consistently won GEs but not all other kinds of elections . Your argument appears to be that it doesn ' t matter whether or not you win elections , but you have to be ' given the chance to fight them ', unless you already lead the country it ' s not clear why this should be the case , however . You appear to imply that these elections have to be General Elections for some reason . Then , once you have done one of these things , it ' s okay for people to vote no confidence in you , regardless of whether or not you won those elections . How have you reached such a convoluted conclusion ?
