I don't fall into this bracket but for any realistic chance of success I think the new leader needs to:

- Appeal to both the north and middle England (probably needs to be a northerner first to win back those seats)
- Left wing enough to get the support of the membership, not too left wing to alienate the floating voter
- Ideally be a woman

Rebecca Long Bailey is the best bet imo

I would say no to any who are perceived to be too 'metropolitan' and London centric like Starmer, Sadiq or Thornberry
