Mid term, mid crisis, wallpaper gate, etc etc and still Labour can't land a punch even the Guardian that bastion of LibFac TROBism is reporting a lame duck. Is it time to accept that real Labour will never excite the electorate again and disband?

"replacing Starmer"
They had no-one to replace Corbyn with. Who on earth are they going to replace Starmer with? I don't recognise the party that I joined on my eighteenth birthday and voted for for many years. Who are they? What are they even for? They're certainly not the opposition, that's for sure!

I don't think now is the best time to judge. There are two key factors dominating UK politics right now, and it's not clear to me that Labour in particular, and the England opposition in general, can do much at the moment but wait and hope that things change in their favour. The most dominant is certainly Covid. The Government's handling of the crisis hasn't been great, to say the least (in particular, the dithering in Autumn and in the run-up to Christmas last year has proven devastating); but the last few months have seen a change in fortunes, in part because of the successful vaccination programme. It's inevitable that the Government gets credit for that and the Opposition none. I'd also say that, given how badly the crisis is developing in other countries currently, it's making the overall outcomes in the UK look less poor (although "everybody failed" should still not be a convincing excuse for failure).
Oh, yes, and Brexit. Labour was on the wrong side of politics on that one since 2016.* I don't see that changing any time soon, either.
*Not only Labour, of course (see also Lib Dems, Independent Group, etc.)

SKS has many problems. Firstly lets face it there is not just one labour party their are a few all hiding under the labour banner. This means there is no determined focus in the Party, unlike the Tories who despite many faults do have some credible policies.
Another problem is that many of the ills facing the UK are down to the war monger Blair, a legacy that sticks like *** to the Party.
Last point, for the minute, is that I dont think it is all down to the leader of the Labour party as being the problem. The behaviour of some of its members with all these wild protests on one side and right-on woke liberal pushes on the other side are not what the working man want (i.e. Labours core vote base). Corbyn with his brand of student politics togehter with the momentum mob has brought untold damage to Labour I suspect for decades.
But of course the self confessed intellectuals of labours protest wing will argue different and labour will be in the wilderness for some time to come.
Its a shame really, we are at a time when Johnson & Hancock need to be held to account. Properly not by holding rolls of wallpaper in John Lewis. Timing is everything, I dont think I have seen anything that badly timed as that stunt.
