"Who should be the next Labour leader"...... Well the selection is to be made by the Labour party so I suppose they will want another clown Anybody got any suggestions for a suitable candidate ?

I have to say I agree with bedruthan's above stuff. I also don't see what floods have got to do with a Prime Minister, how does it help to have him flown up to Hebden Bridge to look at the Co-oP's soggy floor? Prime Ministers should be kicking ass and getting the country running properly, not just kissing ugly babies and performing other publicity stunts.
Boris is not PM material. So expect more shit.

Labour, the once proud party of Attlee, has now become a stench filled pathetic shaking hooded heap wedged in a political sewer, forming nothing more than an impediment that blocks the flow and natural expulsion of noxious waste! L is for Labour L is for Losers That's what I love about this forum - reasoned, philosophical debate by some of the keenest minds on the internet and not the usual hate-filled bilge you get on other websites. Truly this is the place for independent free-thinkers. How fortunate we are to have such paragons of mankind amongst us.

Labour the party that claims to be progressive and forward looking starts off well with 4 women and one man, did’t take long for the male dominated unions to cull two women, so now it’s 2 women and one man. Next the labour members will be voting and will they choose a woman? Nope they would rather have the man even though he is a millionaire London lawyer and has no idea about anything North of the M25.

Quite right too. Women should be doing the hoovering and ironing, not running the country. It's too complicated for them.

With the party's ridiculous voting system the liklihood is that they'll get everybodies third choice, rather than anyone's first choice.
Of the three I would like to see Nandy win, as the best hope for progress.

With her new-found power perhaps she would be able do to something about the ludicrous restrictions on Wigan locks, and tame the feral Wigan volockies.

The recent downward slide in CRT volunteers might eventually have an effect on wigan flight.

Labour tell everyone they are 'progressive' so regardless of who their new leader is there will always be progress, right?

Two conditions are needed for a future Labour victory in our two-party system. The first is boredom with the Tories as the electorate slowly arrives at the conviction that 'change' is needed.
The second is a personality that appears credible. Politics is a popularity contest as evidenced in the recent CaRT council election. In eight years' time today's primary school children will be the young voters who know nothing about today's prejudices.
The Tories will likely get three terms (unless the economy bombs). Who will be the next Labour prime minister? No-one you've ever heard of.
P.S. Diane Abbott isn't as dumb as you think. She's resigning her cabinet post. The real point of suspense is whether or not Long-Bailey calls her back.

I think more specifically Labour must decide if they're a hobby debating group for the London political 'elite' or a traditional political party for the UK 'common man' who seek power to drive change.
Of the three candidates, Nandy being the MP for Wigan gives me some hope of the latter.
