Not my best choice but I think she'll be disastrous enough to win the next election for the Tories.

I thought she WAS a tory.

[emmie]

no another Labourite.....

[Ellipsis]

No chance.

TTT, how is Lady Nugee Emily Thornberry who was shadow Foreign Secretary.We don't want her as leader of Labour, she is far too sensible.

[ToraToraTora]

danny....compared to Lammy and the abacus etc but she's gaffe prone too.

And patronising ...

[saintpeter48]

Can't stand the woman, all the more reason to vote Tory if she is elected leader of the Labour party.

TTT, wher do get Lady Nugee from in relation to this thread?

[dannyk13]

TTT I have sen her at the dispatch box on a few occasions and she is no pushover.

[emmie]

that is her title isn't it... Married to Lord Nugee

[ToraToraTora]

she's the entire subject of this thread danny, sorry confused.

[emmie]

Sorry Sir Christopher Nugee...

[dannyk13]

Thanks Emmie.

I've sneaking feeling she might win. Brilliant for making Labour truly unelectable but having her pop up here there & everywhere for the next 5 years may be too high a price to pay.

[emmie]

i suggested Keir Starmer, he is a sir but that shouldn't exclude him from the race..

[dannyk13]

Emmie, he is out of favour with Labour at the moment due to his stance on Brexit which they think contributed to their rout at the election.

[emmie]

we will see, i think he has as good a chance of any of them.

[dannyk13]

Think it will be someone with the same views as Corbyn and Momentum will have a big say in who it will be.

Funny how all the Labourites have suddenly become so Frank and Honest. It appears everyone of them now say they knew they were doomed from the start at the call of this G/E. Pity they didn't share their crystal balls with Jezza.
