Hahaha!
Thought not.
Yet another one who can't admit he got it wrong on the internet!
You jumped to your own interpretation as to what I wrote rather than weigh up what I actual posted and went off on one believing you caught me out, instead you've ended up with egg on your face.
I have to re-write what I wrote because you misunderstood it...yeah right!
I was clear in what I posted and could (and did) back it up when challenged.
I've spent a lifetime in and around politics, seems you clearly haven't!
It's all a big game, I keep telling you but you don't seem to get it.
That's why for me, politics should have been taken out of the Covid crisis as soon as possible but because Corbyn was playing his game in delaying standing down with the intention that Corbynista, Long-Bailey would hopefully replace him, if he left enough time between his disastrous General Election results and the new leadership elections and somehow, hopefully people might think it was just one of those things or something - which clearly was never going to happen.
Because of his game playing - and when it mattered the most - Labour was simply not in a position to contribute to a coalition - none of Corbyn's inner cabinet would be significant players in the incoming Starmer's shadow cabinet - and Starmer couldn't be asked to be part of (and nominate others in the Labour Party he would wish to join) a coalition cabinet because he was still in a contest to be elected leader and would have split the Labour Party if he had.
All this is spurious anyway because Johnson/Cummings would never offer the option of a coalition government because they (Cummings) were to cocksure of themselves and their abilities - but my point still stands that even if they did want one, then at that time Labour under Corbyn wasn't in a position to form one with them.
And the offer was still not made when they finally were - which if the Conservatives had stopped playing their 'power' games - Johnson had caught Covid, Cummings had gone to Barnard Castle to 'test his eyesight' (although that story had yet to break at that time) and the country was already a month into lockdown - would have been better late than never imo, for what that is worth.
All water under the bridge now though.
I won't hold my breath for your internet apology either.
