Who should be Labour’s new leader?

[Wizard.]

Lisa Nandy is the only choice

[LaLaLand]

Angela Rayner would be fantastic imo.

Love Jess Phillips too. Very likeable.

[Kate!]

Poll?

[Wizard.]

Poll?

Your wish is my command!

[Daniel-X]

Angela Rayner. I do like Rebecca Long-Bailey too though as an alternative.

Nandy is my MP and I just think she lacks the charisma needed.

[Black Dagger]

Jess is a self serving snake. She would be terrible.

Angela. RLB is a good Nothern representative but she just wouldn't have the voice to unite everybody as leader.

[Wizard.]

But being serious now Lisa or Jess are the only people who can bring the Labour voters back as they respected the result of the referendum and aren’t under Corbyns thumb but unfortunately Momentum will elect Rebecca or angela or Keir and Labour will only have themselves to blame when they flop again.

[Marsh.]

Me.

Your wish is my command!

Thank you lovely person x

Angela Rainer has as much charisma as a dildo with spikes sticking out of it!

Rebecca is my MP she speaks like a little mouse needs a masterclass in leadership unfortunately don’t think she has the skills that can be developed speak up loov

Nandy and Jess Phillips are too self serving. Lisa isn’t popular in Wigan, she’s only kept her seat for so long because Wigan wouldn’t elect anybody else.

Rayner is quite soft left, I don’t see this ‘under Corbyn’s thumb’ thing at all. And Starmer led the vote AGAINST Corbyn :conf: he’s like Tony Blair more or less with his ideologies. Hence why the tories want him the least.

Angela Rayner has an admirable story, speaks her mind and didn’t cause a divide in the Labour Party, which didn’t look good in the lead up to the election.

She’s articulate, speaks to the everyday working class as she can relate and comes across as genuinely passionate. She’s perfect.

Rayner is annoying and has a complex about her always making out she’s hard done by.

Keir is the shadow Brexit secretary, the architect of Labours Brexit policy which resulted in their worst election result in decades. Nasal voice and looks like a slug too.

[Wizard.]

Also we should not be voting for men PERIOD.

[LaLaLand]

Yeah I don’t like Starmer at all. He wouldn’t go down well up here in my ends, too “posh”.

David Lammy is another - not very likeable and a bit “holier than thou”.

A Northern woman is the way to go it seems!

[Wizard.]

Nandy is perfect :flutter: if she was leader I would vote Labour for the first time. She speaks sense! #NandyForLeader

[Cal.]

Angela Rayner. There’s no question.

Couldn’t have put it better me bloody self!

Lisa was none existent in the main in this election, she made the odd appearance but not supportive enough to want to lead the party.

I'm wary of all those why skulked about in the wings during campaigning for election only to stride out now and say they want to lead labour? ... feck off!

[Oliver_W]

I'd not heard of Nandy until recently, but I really like her!

RLB ... no.

Rayner is cool, she's up there.

Starmer is okay, he's been the most media-friendly from Labour recently.

Thornberry has a certain insufferable unlikeability. She won't win back the "core Labour vote" when she's a sneering liberal from London.

All I know about Phillips is when she was crying in the news about nasty tweets.


Andy Burnham would be good, or maybe dust off the ole David Milliband.

David Lammy is too focused on his own race, he'd probably think every time someone criticised him it was a hate crime.

Also we should not be voting for men PERIOD.
Because ... ?

Or Blair. ..why not just bring back Blair? .. :idc:

Not wanting to publicly align themselves with the party leadership is a good move tbh. I'm not saying they should have constantly trashed him, but he's so unpopular that it wouldn't be good for their campaign to focus on anything but their constituency.

Is he really that unpopular? or is that what you've been told, he's commanded the greatest majority of votes of any labour leader over the last 20yrs twice :/

[Liam-]

Angela Rayner for sure, she’s left enough for the socialists and centrist enough for the new labour types, plus she’s a northerner from proper working class routes so can speak to the forgotten labour voter

[Oliver_W]

The greatest number, but the population has also grown. Do you have access to the percentages of votes Corbyn and the other labour leaders have gotten over the last 20 years?

Thought I'd do it for you :)

Here are the percentages of votes that Labour have received, going back to 1997:
2019 - 32.2
2017 - 40
2015 - 30.4
2010 - 29.0
2005 - 35.24
2001 - 40.7
1997 - 43.2

[Black Dagger]

Dan Jarvis or Keir Starmer are the only men options I'd go with.

Dan is mayor of Sheffield and an ex soldier and charismatic.

Someone who doesn't make pie in the sky outlandish promises.
Who doesn't try to cynically reel in young, idealistic voters.
Who won't stand for anti - semitism in the party.
Who isn't a terrorist supporter.
Who isn't a Marxist.
Who cares about UK security.
Who doesn't hate Britain.
Who can understand basic maths.
