Default Labour's Deputy PM Contest: Saturday 25th Oct 2025

In the Papers
One name in Emily Thornbery MP?


The Labour Mayor of Manchester suggested
Louise Haigh MP is one of his picks

Alison McGovern MP another name mentioned


It would be good if Joey picked an MP
he thinks could help?

Also, any other poster that can pick
An MP in the Labour Party for this job.

Emily Thornbury was in the shadow cabinet but didn't get a government job when they were elected. She'd be a thorn(bury) in the side of Two Tier Kier, I reckon. The best of a mediocre bunch.

the executive will change the rules so that the result favours Starmer. It will be a contest where the result is known before the contest even starts

It doesn't matter which gender the co-leader is; but any whiff of a "DEI hire" or an all-woman shortlist would be a preemptive death knell.

One would normally say it should be the best person for the job, but it's an elected position so that just doesn't apply. The last female elected leader of the tory party did a wonderful job

Exclamation

Thornberry is a total CLOWNSHOW 🤡🤡🤡



Emily Thornberry @EmilyThornberry
We were given a huge gift by the British public of a huge majority. But now we are on 20% in the polls.

We have to stop making mistakes and start listening.

And we must be prepared for the fight of our lives against Farage.

-------------------------


She has all replies turned OFF on X



and listen to the short clip - she puts "building SOME homes" as an achievement Labour should crow about - total fkcwit of the highest order
