    What he is is a principled guy who built the membership quite remarkably and ran on great policies. He fell down on Brexit very badly and in general was probably unsuited for leadership, lacking somewhat in charisma and in political smarts. One hopes that whoever takes over retains at least some of the good stuff and doesn't revert to centrist technocracy. Otherwise what is the fucking point?
    So he was out of his depth, failed 'very badly' on the single biggest issue of the day, and he isn't charismatic or good at politics. How does that make him anything other than a dogshit party leader?

    I feel a bit sorry for Jezza. He's probably the most genuine front-bencher of the lot, but that's probably what cost him in the end. People don't want genuine, they want snappy populist slogans.

    This. The word "dogshit" is therefore inappropriate.

    Moreover, anyone running on a lefty platform will face the same slanders and malevolency from the establishment. The hammer comes down very hard on such people. It's not clear that there is anyone in politics who could have successfully resisited.
    By contrast had Corbyn been a Blairite he wouldn't have faced the same torrent of shit and his weaknesses may not have been exposed to the same degree.

    People are morons and there are fuckloads of them. It's the job of a party leader to convince them and he's failed to do so twice now, this time, spectacularly so.

    I'm not sure how you can separate 'the leadership' from their Brexit/economic policies as that poll neatly suggests. I find it hard to believe that people would otherwise welcome the country turning into East Germany with a different face on the jar, so reports about Wor Jezza coming up on the doorstep time and time again seems like either a) a way for all the twats who were fully on board this time yesterday to wash their hands of it; or b) voter shorthand for calling the full party a bunch of retards, which would obviously include the policies.

    Who is the best Jewish person they can put into power so they can claim they're no longer anti-Semitic?

    I reckon it will be Jess Phillips though, if she wants it.

    Jess Phillips has spent the past two years shitting on 'Jeremy' at every possible opportunity [and then campaigning to make him Prime Minister], so the membership will lol her candidacy into the bin. It will be Rebecca Mong-Bailey or Angela Rayner. The latter would represent a slightly trickier wicket for Wor Boris, with her single mother gimmick, but he would still lol her into the ground within about six months.

    Stephen Kinnock surely the natural follow-on candidate after this Foot-esque performance from Corbz & Co.

    Keir Starmer is a such a mook.

    Andy Burnham's got to fancy it at some point. He's always looked the sort who really rates himself (Brendan Rodgers style). Guess he's got to get back into Parliament first though.

    I once saw Keir Starmer called a 'chubby man with a thin man's haircut' and I haven't been able to shake that image since.

    He's not looked great in his last leadership challenge but that could be said of anyone that wasn't Corbyn.

    According to Wiki the only Labour Jews are Ruth Smeeth who lost in Stoke on Trent North, Alex Sobel (Labour Co-op though) and...



    I guess it's time for a glorious comeback.

    I have long thought Angela Rayner should be their next leader and I still think it now. She's tough, she's northern, she will make an awkward juxtaposition with Johnson, and she probably isn't as useless as most of them.

    Long-Bailey would do even worse than Corbyn, and Keir Starmer is a slimy fuck complicit in this disaster.

    Some of the mental gymnastics going on are pretty wonderful, although the '53% voted for Remain parties' is even better in my view.

    Hezza has stood down but AC Grayling is tripling/quadrupling down, the ones still clinging on must have some sort of medical condition.

    As for Labour, talk that the continuity candidate will be a Long-Bailey/Burgon 'dream ticket', not sure whose dreams they are referring to. I reckon that might beat Starmer if our Momentum heroes get moving, and in that case they're well on their way to actually sinking the party and forcing some kind of equally shit Macron breakaway.

    It irritates me that people still whinge and moan after the result. You can't change it from behind a keyboard by ranting and raving. Be active, I say and who knows, in five years it could be different but that will require massive changes.

    Plaid Cymru are another one, they claim to represent Wales, they don't.

    Presumably their leadership election is going to end up being between a Corbynuity candidate (Long-Bailey probs), a London twathead remainer candidate (Starmer or Lammy), and a not-Momentum northern candidate (let's say Rayner). Who will win that given their voting rules?

    I think Lammy is smart enough to know where his ceiling is and that he would be exposed as a useless wanker on the national stage, so I imagine it'll be Keir Starmer and his disturbing haircut to take on the sparrows.
