He did have huge backing from grassroot members. I don't think he'd have anywhere near so much now though. Whatever, he can't lead a group of MP's if they do not support him. At the end of the day they have to work with him and they are saying they can't. Corbyn can only just fill a shadow cabinet with MP's willing to back him. The honorable thing would be to go (the honorable thing would have been to go yesterday actually). If he really is dead set on staying this will tear Labour to pieces.
