A regular "Away day" for some members of the Parliamentary Labour Party?

The first signs of the media circus starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel to undermine Jeremy Corbyn. See Tuesday's Daily Express, Sun and Daily Mail to read almost word for word the report about the allegations of a "Secret Plot to oust Corbyn".
The usual suspects gathering in a grade two listed £144 per night luxury Farmhouse, to plan the fightback for them to take over the party. Among the revelations emerging from this "secret meeting" was the objective that, " we need to be ready to step in, win the leadership rebuild the party". A statement which clearly recognises the fact that under the present rules where the members of the party hold the power to elect their leader, this cabal of the "old school", PLP conceded that they have no prospects of winning a leadership election and therefore they conspire to usurp the democratic process. It seems that these clandestine meetings are a regular feature for these subversive elements, the latest being in May of this year.
Clearly, the media will resort to any non story, no matter how old or contrived such a story may be, in order to undermine the Labour party, since they and the establishment in this country, remain petrified of the probability that the nxt government will be Labour and Jeremy Corbyn will be Prime Minister. Having overplayed its hand, and still overplaying it in the "Labour party antisemitism" controversy, the media must now find another vehicle with which to smear and discredit the party and corbyn in particular. Their agenda is perfectly clear and it is to prevent at any cost, a Labour government following the next general election.
The motives of the usual suspects are clearly different from those of the Mail, Express and the rest of the media, but bizarrely could ultimately lead to the same eventuality. That tends to explain why the media generally gives so much support and encouragement to these critics within the party and the PLP, with numerous television interviews and extensive coverage in the newspapers with articles and stories dominating the "Politics" sections if not the front pages. The attendees at these clandestine meetings and those who support them, seem to be blissfully unaware of the way that they are in effect, being used by the media as they pursue their own ambitions of leadership and advancement. Either unaware or perhaps fully aware, but are prepared to sacrifice electoral success with their constant attacks on the party and inflict damage in their quest to "step in, win the leadership rebuild the party"
It is tragic that while these antics are continuing, this wretched Conservative government are being allowed free rein to inflict even more damage to our society. The Labour party should be attacking the government whilst at the same time pushing for those reforms and policies which are so desperately needed in this country. Housing, NHS, welfare, poverty, taxation, BREXIT and all the other areas that we campaign on. The "usual suspects" must be made to understand the effects of their constant plotting and if they cannot accept the present situation should consider their place and position within the Labour Party.
