Burnham would manage to get fewer votes than Corbyn. In fact, given the choice, even I'd vote for Corbyn ahead of Burnham.
Where are you looking?Is starmer on holiday?
Not heard a peep from him for a while
Another endorsement for Burnham.Burnham would manage to get fewer votes than Corbyn. In fact, given the choice, even I'd vote for Corbyn ahead of Burnham.
It is rare a Labour leader is ousted, in fact I cant think of one, it is late on Friday night mind, Starmer would have to resign or somebody would have to mount a leadership challenge and then put it to the members. Even then with the Left purged Starmer may well be safe. I don't see where a leadership challenge would come from ATM so he would have to resign and I can't see that either. The party is stuck with him i reckon until after the local elections at least. A disastrous showing in them and he will have to resign, a decent result and he carries on. The Tories might well consider a decent night for Labour in the local elections as a bonus, as it keeps Keith in place and that keeps the party split.I think Starmer is going to be ousted far sooner than any of us realised...
It's tragic. Labour has lost touch with its working class base.

The Tories are far more ruthless when it comes to replacing leaders, they have a mechanism in the 1922 committee.
They’re a middle class movement that doesn’t realise they are, that’s the issue they have.It's tragic. Labour has lost touch with its working class base. This definition of working class was actually posted elsewhere on this forum:

This whole new level of stupid comfortably includes Boris and possibly the Queen as working class.
Most of the working class who are in work voted Remain. Most people in work in every class voted Remain.It's tragic. Labour has lost touch with its working class base. This definition of working class was actually posted elsewhere on this forum:
