Why doesnt Labour dump Corbyn if hes such an electoral burden?

This is the trap. Any Labour leader would be an "electoral burden". England is a Tory nation - among other things it is fundamentally selfish and inward-looking, see: Brexit - and Labour were screwed once the SNP rose in 2015. Even with an awful Tory leadership people aren't inclined to vote Labour. Full stop. All it takes then is our bestselling newspapers - The Mail (literally owned by a family that were friends with Hitler and Mussolini and were favourable towards them in the 30s) and The Sun (owned by Rupert Murdoch) in particular - to repeatedly smear the Labour leader and you end up with a country that acknowledges Johnson is bad but "just can't vote for Corbyn" (as if we have a presidential system) because their biases have been massaged. Ed Miliband was "an electoral burden" too. Except he wasn't, any Labour leader would be. People "just couldn't bring themselves" to vote for him either.

Lib Dems are vile traitorous bastards who aren't worth the time I've already spent typing this sentence.
