If Corbyn DOES get re-elected as leader...

...would everyone hear agree that nothing but harm would be done by any further attempts to try to oust him or make him resign, and that all further efforts to force the man out should stop?

If you don't agree with that, would you explain how anyone who could possibly become leader as a result of Corbyn being forced out could ever conceivably unite the party for victory behind her or his leader?

This is an important consideration, because if most Corbyn supporters are removed from the party or quit it in disgust, no one else could possibly enter the party or throw enough support to it to even make up for the loss of those people, let alone to add enough more supporters and voters to get Labour anywhere close to victory.

So what would the post-Corbyn game plan even be?
