Just read a news article about declared and also prospective labour leadership candidates.
They are all pretty much lefties and in their own bubble .
I think they are finished as a political force unless they get real anytime soon . Not good for the country having no legitimate opposition.
Had a glance over it, pretty ambitious for sure.
Struggling with how they plan to nationalise utilities and stay in europe's rule set (no gov subsidies) - i think it will be a short mtg with Brussels over the manifesto and EU negotiations
Sadly for the thousands and thousands of small...
