Wes Streeting, Ilford North is a man worth watching.
It's too soon for him right now. As he is young and his kind of centrist Labour has been marginalised by the entryists
However, his elegant, principled outrage against the Momentum/McDonnel/Corbyn electoral debacle bristled with determined energy.
He has what, in today's terms, is a safe seat and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if people rally to his more moderate flag in the years to come.
"Streeting for 2028 !"
You heard it here first.![biggrin](/inc/images/biggrin.gif)
Agreed, he is articulate, moderate, passionate and intelligent. What a waste in the current Labour Party, his time will come if he has the patience.It's too soon for him right now. As he is young and his kind of centrist Labour has been marginalised by the entryists

Interesting looking back at who were favourites to replace Ed Miliband back in 2015

Dan Jarvis would would have been a good choice. I think his wife died around that time and he took himself out of the running.
Then momentum took over and it all went wrong for labour.

Let's face it - all the potential contenders are rubbish, the Labour Party is now the Socialist Workers Party, MPs with traditional Labour Party views have been sidelined, it's unclear what the Labour Party's policies actually are because Corbyn is incapable of making a decision, they have alienated the Jewish vote and the Hindu vote, they have alienated the working class who actually work for a living, they have alienated business, they have alienated......... well, the list is almost endless.
Most critically if Labour ever aspire to govern again is the utter alienation of the scottish labour vote; without regaining perhaps 25-30 seats up here they have bugger all chance of winning a majority even with quite a big swing.El stovey said:
Lammy was one of the few senior labour figures open and realistic about what’s gone wrong with labour after the election. Talking about Corbyn and the momentum party within a party.
Not sure he’s going to get in after that though.
Yes, and I wonder if this is Labour's key problem. If a leadership candidate argues that Corbyn and the party's policies were wrong, he/she will fall foul of Momentum and won't succeed. So Labour end up with a far left candidate. If they approve of the Dear Leader and his policies, they might succeed. So Labour end up with a far left candidate.Not sure he’s going to get in after that though.
I fully expect Labour to elect someone who believes "the policies were correct, we won the moral argument........" and fully expect them to lose the next election, whenever that is. Welcome to at least ten years of Conservative government.
The people of the Uk will want a true Socialist like Long Bailey. A true leader who speaks for the common people with a strong voice for the freedoms of the whole community not just the few. There would be very few Annus Orbicularis Oris Horribilis with Rebbecca in charge
Lammy is a stooge of the far right in Labour.

Holy crap - that was poor beyond belief. At what point does someone get sworn in to represent people in to those hallowed halls then decide that behaving is acceptable?https://twitter.com/SocialM85897394/status/1207960...

(I have some words to describe him but I'm not posting them here).

You’d think, wouldn’t you?! My mum is one of his constituents and thinks he’s great, though she is one that would vote for a pig with a red rosette stuck on it.
He is the MP in the constituency next to mine, he is plank of the highest order but they love him in Norwich South. Not surprising though as most residents are either students or work at the university and/ or are Hippies. Fortunately the north part of Norwich is a lot more sensible.

The weird thing is, DLR, that your satirical posts actually look exactly the same as the genuine posts made by posters such as blueboys booboise, or Helicopter 123.Lammy is a stooge of the far right in Labour.
I also wonder whether Techie Dave feels that you're copying his style a bit too closely. Perhaps he takes it as a compliment?
