Not my chart so 🎩 to whoever first put it together, but a great explainer as to why Corbyn can't lead a Labour minority Government even if he and his supporters really really really want it... And why the LibDems aren't the stumbling block. Take some time to absorb the numbers.
(If anything it's too generous to Labour because it assumes zero rebels in the Labour ranks ie 100% of the party votes for Corbyn. Which is far from certain.)
Move the LD into the red column and that's 353 MPs from which to find the 326 needed for a GNU with a majority. Tricky but doable. There's no realistic way to make the Corbyn column add up to a majority though.
