Sultana has been impressive asa constituency MP, she shouldn't be considered as leader.
Burnham is the only viable candidate really. I don't like Reeves but think she's performed quite well when I essentially her.
Sultana is the latest rumour for who they’re going to dredge up from the talent puddle to challenge Starmer. Which should tell you how serious any of this is.
Nandy would be the best leader for Labour. A clean candidate who opposed Corbyn but remained loyal to traditional Labour values. The Labour Party would be mad to not vote her the next leader.
Currently here I've had one Tory, and one TUSC leaflet - that's it. Given one of our councillors died, you'd think the mooted replacement would be doing some campaigning, at the very least!
As for the Police Commissioner, I have no clue who any of them are, or what they want to do.
How can I vote, if nobody wants to tell me what (and who!) I'm voting for! At least I got the booklet with the mayoral candidates, I suppose!
...What Labour don’t appear to have done is give the electorate a reason to vote for them ‘other than not being Tory...
Burnham would be a decent shout.
But I don't think it matters who the leader of the opposition is at the moment, the Tories are absolutely teflon with getting Brexit 'done' and the vaccine bounce. All the other shit they’re up to people either don't care about or are oblivious too.
I’m sure Starmer (or whoever the LOTO was) would love to come out on the attack and call Johnson a useless lazy fuckwit, we know that’s what he thinks of him, but it’s not what the public wants to hear right now. Criticising Johnson is tantamount to treason in the eyes of many.
Instead he just has to bide his time and play the long game. It makes him look weak or indecisive or ineffective but it’s his best bet. It’s too early to come out on the attack now, so far from the next election. Bide his time, wait for the inquiries into Covid/PPE/Corruption to come out, wait for the Tory infighting to start, and then go on the offensive.
Maybe, but it's also true that it won't play well now. Cummings has tried to blow the bloody doors off, and all that's happened is that the government has become more popular!The danger, though, is that the Tories are already planning for their future without Boris at the helm. At that point all this PPE/cronyism/etc scandal can be palmed off on the previous incumbent and perpetuates this Teflon image. Sitting tight for the right time to attack will ultimately, I’m sure, result in that perfect time being missed.

So that's what happened to our former left back!

Yay Tories rule everywhere and with the SNP permanently winning in Scotland the whole island’s shit!
Only place to hide is London, and that’s full of Londoners: the only thing worse than a Tory
The only refuge is Brighton at this point. The country basically being a one party state makes me want out more than ever
These lot don't help our fight though, sorry Wisdom I'm done now View attachment 19952
People from hartlepool see things like this and think fuck you
I'm sorry I just don't get this thinking.
A random on twitter says something a person doesn't like like on social media and that person's thought is 'I know, I'll vote for the incompetent, corrupt tories who shaft people like me at every opportunity instead, that'll show that person on twitter'.
Just makes no sense.
Coventry is still Labour, well just about
It’s all just going one way Evo and that’s the Tories getting more votes the shitter they govern. Like if there isn’t even a pathway back for a Labour government it’s just permanent crap
Il still vote for them ,but it's more a "it's what we do " thing more than anything.
People won't vote for this
…but they will vote for the lying, stealing, corrupt, incompetent party who will fuck them over?
You don't get it , which is understandable, you think this way too

I vote Labour, shmmeee alluded to it before why people don't like them ...they dont appeal to people .Have asked you before but genuinely what is Labour supposed to do? In fact that’s an open question to those slagging it off
Some fat old racists are still blaming the EU yes. I don't think that can be denied.
But it just comes back to the same question. People aren't voting Labour for whatever reasons which is fine, but why the hell are they then voting Tory.
I vote Labour, shmmeee alluded to it before why people don't like them ...they dont appeal to people .
They are the party of activism , the party of identity and social politics .
if you keep telling people how thick, racist and privileged they are , they won't vote for you .
I get it, I really do .
You can put forward good policies etc but nobody likes your MPs
