Sir Keir Starmer – 275,780 (56.2%) Rebecca Long-Bailey – 135,218 (27.6%) Lisa Nandy – 79,597 (16.2%) First round win, no need for second prefs. Disappointed Nandy was so low in the end. Rayner won deputy as well haven’t seen numbers.

Oh no I totally agree. Blair has an awful lot to answer for, but my point is there wasn’t a visceral reaction to the word like there is now. I think Blair was too fiscally conservative and bought into the narrative too much, I think if there hasn’t been the GFC Brown would’ve corrected that...

Everyone just needs to STFU and aim fire at the Tories TBH.

I see the Labour site has crash and Starmer has been announced winner. Conspiracy theorists: start your engines.

Socialism wasn’t a dirty word among the average Brit under Blair, it is now. The Tories just kicked all their competent politicians out, we just benched them. On no planet are we worse off with the likes of Reeves, Cooper, Benn, Milliband, Nandy in the SC.

Let me start by saying my politics are firmly on the left. I believe in nationalised water, rail, electricity and broadband infrastructure. I believe in mass social housing being built, strong unionised workplaces, high minimum wage, generous benefits to the point of UBI and taxing the crap out...

It’s a culture problem. Same reason white British boys do so badly at school. It’s a culture problem for Eastern European and Muslim groups as well. Same as it was when Bangladeshi girls were the worst at school and it was about attitudes to girls education. How you raise that these days...

She was a proponent of using QE rather than austerity to get out of the GFC recession. It’s just she’s not in the socialist campaign group so therefore she’s a Tory.

No ones taking it seriously. People I know in Canley (white British people in case that matters) all think it’s a government plot and aren’t paying any attention to lockdown.

You lot are like my missus. I’m fine honestly. I promise I’ll talk to a medical professional Monday.

I hear you. But also I’m a typical bloke who won’t go to a doctor until he’s literally dead. I just thought I’m probably still registered at my old GP in Holbrooks so gonna give them a call when they open Monday and see what’s what. Dont worry about me guys, when I stop posting here you’ll know...

Reeves just said “Labour aren’t the party of the unemployed”, she was right. She’s got an MSc in Economics from LSE and PPE from Oxford, I’d have her as Chancellor in heart beat. Time for some experts please. Also bringing in the right of the party sends a vital change message right now. We are...

It’s not serious enough for 999 yet, I’m still functioning, still working full time, just tired and have to mute my mike on Zoom calls.

Yes mate. In the morning it’s awful, coughing so much I think I’m going to be sick, clears up after a couple of hours and is just a slight cough until around 4/5pm when my chest starts tightening again.

That’s basically been my thinking. I’m just staying at home coughing and wheezing for now, it either heals on its own or gets so bad I need hospital anyway.

Most of em TBH. I’m not really one for panning players.

Annoyingly since the divorce and the move I don’t have a GP. Never registered at my new address. I haven’t used an inhaler in maybe 15years do not sure it counts as current. But also haven’t been able to fill my lungs for two weeks so getting a little worried.

I tried to get one through an online pharmacy and got refused. Told me to go to the GP but I’m not going near a medical setting right now.

There aren’t anything like as many people willing to risk prison as people think. Just like there weren’t riots when we didn’t Brexit on time. Generally British people bitch and moan but don’t do anything. They aren’t enforcing at all at the minute and guidelines are vague. Once that changes and...

And that’s when we’ll end up in proper lockdown
