[quote="Viduka Hits The Mark"]If she decides to run please let it be Jess Phillips the next Labour leader. Can you imagine Boris having to deal with the tears and tantrums every week at PMQ'S. Political theatrical dynamite.

You have got me all wrong chaps. I want Phillips to get the job, i just feel she will be too Rock n Roll for the current Labour membership. A bit like Clough and the FA. Unfortunately i think your great savior is likely to be the the dull as dishwater Starmer, or the equally dull Rebecca long bailey as your next party leader. Get your membership in and get voting for Phillips you won't regret it.

I see I’m not the only one, the GMB come out and back her today and Phillips drops out of the race. She’s still a big outsider though.
When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

Lisa is certainly making a good fist of it after starting in last place according to a poll not so long ago. I think she is the only candidate who gets it up North, Lisa has been predicting the fall of the red wall (no not Man u) for over 10 years apparently with Labour leaning towards metropolitan politics.
She has work to do though, her position on free movement is clearly a nod to the membership rather than her constituents. I hope she gets the job, but has you say with the Labour membership being overwhelmingly pro EU i think they will want Starmer to take up the Rejoin fight, especially now javid has talked up divergence. Starmer will be spinning the Level playing field mantra to protect jobs, workers rights ect ect. Even tho the Government have continuously said they will be protecting them.

Irish GE in full counting flow i believe over in Ireland. Personally i hope Varadkar doesn't get back in he. I think he's been a bit Arrogant at times towards UK in the Brexit debate, especially when it was a hung Parliament over here and the EU just pissed us about. I will give him one point for agreeing a deal with Boris. But small country... Comes on. This is England.....Oh and Wales, Scotland and NI. :angel:

Another good move today imo by the Government who are about to deport 50 serious criminals back to the Caribbean. The Labour politician David Lammy who is opposed to the actions, describes one of the criminals as only having been charged with GBH as tho its a bit of slap-n-tickle.
