I don't think they see it through that lens. The partner of Cristian Eriksen lookalike said about Bernie/Healthcare "Yes thats all well and good but he voted for himself!!! how can I support someone like that?"
What does "he voted for himself" mean?

I don't quite see how this works. Sure they can mandate the PM to ask for an extension—but they can't mandate him to get one (or even to ask in a way that makes it very likely he will).

don't get this - because that's something he has said, on camera, what? hundreds of times now?
Just grabbed Mr Corbyn at the end of the press conference and he said Labour WILL back a general election under ANY circumstances if Boris Johnson were to call one: “Of course, we are the opposition party, we want a general election” he said... sadly not on camera!— Kate McCann (@KateEMcCann) September 2, 2019

Young-ish MP with limited experience but strong working-class / union roots. She has supported Corbyn from the start and is generally seen as a good / relatable communicator.
― ShariVari, Monday, 2 September 2019 11:32 (four years ago) link
She seems good but it's a reflection of the fact that there's almost nobody else that they'd be looking to throw an MP with a couple of years in Parliament in at the deep end, if required.
There is an old guard with 'baggage', there are new MPs with less baggage (or baggage the press has yet to invent) but there's not a lot in the middle.

A lot of the 2015 intakes already have/had shadow cabinet experience, ie Starmer, Butler, Lewis, Hussain, Huq, Debbonaire, etc. A lot of the same intake haven’t been brought in for fairly obvious reasons (Coyle, Phillips, Streeting). Beyond that you have the 2010 intake for anyone younger.
