Rejected petition Prevent the Labour Party from excluding Jeremy Corbyn from the leadership Ballot

Labour party members have overwhelmingly shown their support for Jeremy Corbyn as leader. He was voted in by the public, by people the party is supposed to represent.
Labour Party membership has surged presumably in response to the coup waged against him by Labour MPs. He is our elected leader!
