No wonder Jeremy Corbyn and his Labour Party are doing all they can to avoid fighting a general election, the party's finances are reported to be in a bit of a mess.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING MAY NOT BE A FULL TRANSCRIPT!!
It turns out that the Labour party has lost over 45,000 members in the year to December 2018 and had a financial shortfall of £655,000 in that year.
And the Times reports that this has led to fears amongst the Parliamentary Labour Party that they are 'ill-prepared for a general election'.
So, that could partly explain why the narrative is now turning towards having a second EU referendum, before a General Election.
After all, it would provide an Article 50 extension with some breathing space to rebuild the party and its finances, whatever result the referendum threw up in the end.
And the Shadow Chancellor, John McDonnell, hasn't helped the Labour Party cause, by telling Alastair Campbell in a GQ magazine interview that he couldn't see either Corbyn or himself staying on, if they lost the next election.
I mean, how defeatist is that?
Surely he's meant to be bigging the Labour Party and its leader up as the chances of having an election increase - well some people see an election on the horizon anyway.
As a senior member of the party hierarchy it's his job to back the party to the hilt and always dismiss out of hand, any talk of electoral failure.
It's his job to talk about what they will do in government and not speculate about failure - at all!
But he doesn't seem to have done that, which is both interesting and revealing..
