Iraq and Afghanistan veteran. Can't see that going down well with large swathes of voters.
I suspect he'll be pushed to run
He certainly doesn't appeal to me but I can see why he'd be a top target for non-Momentum folks.
He lost 2/3 of his majority last night though.

Until you purge the momentum cancer I wouldn't plan on winning any elections.

One word Brexit... He almost lost his seat last night!
I don't think we have anyone who stands out tbh – he's the first name who came to mind. But aye, he suffered last night.
Don't seem to have someone who can keep the youth vote invigorated while also trying to wrangle in the Brexit departers.

I would have Mr Burnham parachuted in personally, but not very democratic.

Momentum goes then half the Labour Party goes with it and the vote on the left is split. Both sides have got to work together. Momentum are painted as some dark, evil force when it´s basically just a bunch of kids interested in getting a Labour Government.

Instead the party (of which I used to be a member) has found new and better ways to lose elections.
Honestly, Labour were never going to win in 2010. Brown's short spell as PM was
No, that's MPs and MEPs.
no Dan, it doesn’t. if it abandons it’s socialist ideologies it’ll gain far more working class support. Labour was a working mans party that supported working class people to ensure equality.That’s not what corbyn or momentum want, they play identity politics, whatever the “craze” is they’ll throw their weight behind and push it from a social justice viewpoint

We got crushed last night. I´m all for ideas on how to win again. I just don´t expect many to be coming from Alan Johnson. All his dreams come true last night. He was absolutely gutted when Corbyn got 40% of the vote in 2017.

All I´m saying is that if the left gets completely sidelined then the party is done. You think 32% is bad? It´ll can go lower. Both sides of the party need to come together for the greater good.
it’s 2 separate parties and I’d imagine a split will happen in the near future. Labour don’t resolve this and go back it’s roots, the hardworking people who take pride in their jobs and community, then I doubt I’ll see a labour government in power for the next 20 years
