Subject: RE: BS: UK politics
The problem Labour has is that until the leadership election no one had heard of any of the contenders in the race. Of those only two have any kind of chance. People are more familiar with Len McCluskey the leader of Unite. The man with a face that would sink a thousand ships.
a)THe election manifesto was confused
b)Despite the horrific results Corbyn was not forced to fall on his sword.
c)None of the candidates on offer have the gravitas and persona to be leadership material.
d)The party seems unable to understand why they lost and therefore have no way of reacting.
e)They need a clear incisive outsider to enter the fray - if they can find anyone.
f)The party needs to decide if the membership make the decisions, or Momentum and Unite.
g)The country needs a viable opposition party.
