Burnham’s online ‘Fandies‘ are deserting the Labour ‘frontrunner’ for Jeremy Corbyn after last night’s cynical, opportunistic welfare vote positioning:

@LabourEoin that abstention was it for me. #votecorbyn

@LabourEoin he still abstained. I was wavering between him & Corbyn this vote has decided it for me @Corbyn4Leader

Jeremy Corbyn it is then – Andy Burnham's weakness in failing to vote against the govt's welfare bill has cost him my vote – and 2nd choice

I wonder how many of Burnham's more radical supporters will be tipped over into the Corbyn camp tonight. #WelfareBill

Burnham has done something which is totally unforgivable. Corbyn is the only honest, true person running for leadership.

I hope jeremy corbyn is the next labour leader or the party is finished and i won't vote labour again … Burnham is s tory

@MichaelMarten @UKLabour One can only hope it hastens Corbyn to power, especially after Burnham looked like a complete dick on this.

He’s lost the battle, will he lose the war?

UPDATE: Corbyn’s odds have improved overnight:

After welfare vote rebellion last night @Corbyn4Leader price tightens back in to 9/2 https://t.co/xcV4Up7osb
