If I was in UKIP, Greens or the Lib Dems I would be going round Labour areas from today and making sure everyone knew my name.

I think that Chakka Kahn bloke is good, and would win over the centre and middle class remain voters . Hilary Benn doesn't seem bad either.Originally posted by minestrone View PostIt's a classic power vacuum. If someone credible stepped forward and said "I'm up for the job, get this guy out and I'll win the next election" then Corbyn would be gone, problem is that there is nobody.
LibDems have promised to campaign on overturning the referendum result, so that has appeal too for many. If the GE is Boris v Corby maybe we'll end up with LibDems. Or UKIP. Either way a hung parliament must be quite likely.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Chuka might have something in the closet. He dropped out of the last leadership election unexpectedly. Probably the most electable member of the crowd.Comment

If you watch Chuka carefully, you'll find he isn't nearly as impressive a communicator or well-informed as he might initially appear. He does well with mediocre interviewers, but I've seen numerous carcrash interviews with Andrew Neil and others. He's more style than substance IMO. The baseline is low, but he's far less impressive than Hilary Benn, for example. Dan Jarvis has a perfect backstory, but very little exposure to frontline politics. The Labour Party is neither broad nor deep in terms of credible leadership candidates, as evidenced the last time around.Comment

looks weak to me . He`s not quick at answering questions either and shutting down the interviewer.Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostIf you watch Chuka carefully, you'll find he isn't nearly as impressive a communicator or well-informed as he might initially appear.
