Labour is never going to win a majority with a left of centre candidate , we have to go back to blair for our last period of office and he was a tory in a labour suit ....the first few years were good but then his true colours showed up

If we can get someone like nandy to appeal to the middle ground , which wins the election , then we might have a chance of a labour minority or coalition labour led government

But after the loss of all those seats to the krankies in Scotland, I cant see a majority led labour government in my lifetime ......and that's with a decent leader like nandy in charge

Tony Benn, skinner , kinnock , all great speakers but all mouth and no trousers

This country has sadly lurched to the right and the labour party must hit the middle ground if it's to have any chance

Rebecca long bailey would kill us off completely
