Morning Willow. I don't know how few of the millions needing support have actually been put on UC but the last comment I read from Ephemerid, either here or at the G, indicated it was a miniscule number!

Cooper is having a good campaign now after a rather unimpressive start. Still inclined to Burnham overall, but he needs to do better than last night - he is capable of it. Can't see either the first or last proposition being true myself. https://vine.co/v/eizxzUam3n6" onclick="window.open...

Incidentally, Tories paying £3 (including Toby Young I notice) to vote for Jeremy Corbyn to - in Young's words "consign Labour to electoral oblivion" is the very best reason that open primaries for selecting party candidates are a really, really bad idea. https://twitter.com/hashtag/Torie...

If you want Kendal to lead the Labour Party then you don't want the Labour Party to win another election.

Thank you for the answer. I don't think Burnham will make it to 2020 (almost fingers crossed as it would hopefully be for a good reason, e.g. someone more suited appears) and the less I say about Tom Watson, the better.

So, hypothetically then, SH, who is your "Dream Team" for 2020 or 2025?

This is quite wrong. From 1997 onwards Labour was flanked to the left by the third party, the Lib Dems. Steadily they ate into this vote, especially after the Iraq war. (In 20005 I voted Lib Dem because of the war, the one time I have not voted Labour). In 2015 the major left wing alternative to La...

SH -

why do you who constantly want to frame everything in terms of Blair?

Maybe because when you speak and say "We" and "Us" you are not referring to the Labour Party you are referring to Blair's, Mandelson's and David Miliband's NuLabour.

giselle97

And a Party with "Union" in its title which will go down in history as the Party which broke the "Union" as well as pulled the UK out of the EU. That's really something to be remembered for!
