The timing has to be right.
The support has to be there. I think Keir has to first step aside. I dont get the impression Andy would undercut him.
Yeah. We pulled that one out.
Still a deeply unhappy racial undertone being thrown at him and encouraged by the tories.
In America they say it out loud, here they just imply and insinuate.
One thing it has shown me. Culture wars is where it's at in politics. Appealing to common sense isn't really the play.
Labour needs their own culture message when shyt starts hitting the fan like with Brexit.
Personally Brexit made the Tories the party of the common man, but it can also break them.
Labour needs to say Brexit is done, we respect the decision of the people, but look at the mess the people you trusted have gotten you in. They were only looking out for themselves.
Where are the trade deals? We will pit them in place.
Where is the support for Blue collar workers? Here is our plan.
They just need to wait until Scotland moves to leave the union after the referendum and then pile on the pressure.
I Scotland votes to stay, I can't see anything stopping the Tories from a long majority.

So that means win the red wall back. But how? Why are people in Preston, Blackpool voting tory? What reason does anyone in the Greater Manchester towns (Bolton, Kearsley, Cheadle Hume) or Birmingham (Dudley, Solihull) have to be voting tory?
He was running against a black guy too.
Scotland won't leave. The Lothian towns, Orkney, etc won't stand for losing their government gigs because of the peoples republic of Glasgow.
Welsh Labour did well though

Almost as bad as Corbyn after four years of establishment media ruining his image.
And that's with the media largely being on Starmer's side.

Union boss in 'deport Priti Patel' race row: Unite leadership hopeful slammed over call for Home Secretary to be kicked out of the country 'instead of refugees' amid Glasgow immigration stand-off
A leadership candidate for one of Britain's biggest trade unions was accused of racism last night after he called for Priti Patel to be deported.
Howard Beckett is running to succeed Len McCluskey as general secretary of Unite.
In a message posted on Twitter yesterday, he called for the Home Secretary, Britain's most senior ethnic minority politician, to be kicked out
.
The tweet, in response to an attempt to deport two asylum seekers in Glasgow, read: 'Priti Patel should be deported, not refugees. She can go along with anyone else who supports institutional racism. She is disgusting.'
It prompted an immediate backlash, with social media users telling Mr Beckett it was 'racist' and warning that his remark 'sounded like the BNP'.
The fallout came as huge crowds cheered and applauded yesterday as two Indian men detained by Border Force officials in an immigration van were eventually released by police following a stand-off with hundreds of protesters.
Locals surrounded the enforcement vehicle on Thursday afternoon, with some sitting on the road in front of it, and one even laying underneath it, as part of a demonstration against an earlier immigration raid.
Around 200 protesters were at the scene, with chants of 'Leave our neighbours, let them go' and 'Cops go home' being heard as a ring of police stood around the van.
