NORTHERN voters have brutally outlined the reasons they chose not to back Labour in last week’s general election, with Jeremy Corbyn’s “lack of leadership” blamed.
...
Brexit is not the main explanation for Labour’s ‘Northern Discomfort’. This would blind the party to the real reasons for the scale, consequences and reasons for this historic defeat. It was the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn and the politics he represents that caused the real rupture with long-held loyalties.

When it comes to voting, socialism is for the well off virtue-signalling few, not the many. It's painful to watch Corbyn sitting as a complete lame duck leader while they slug it out behind closed doors.
Two candidates are confirmed so far. Emily 'Lady Nugee' Thornberry and Clive Lewis.
LABOUR shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry has been savaged on social media for announcing she will stand to replace Jeremy Corbyn as leader of the embattled party.
Today, Ms Thornberry - who is most remembered for her white van snobbery tweet under Ed Miliband’s leadership - declared she is officially running to be the next Labour leader as she attacked Mr Corbyn for allowing an election to go ahead without providing a clear Brexit strategy.

No word yet on her legal action against Caroline Flint who revealed more snobbery: leave voters are more 'stupid'.
More socialism has to be the answer
CLIVE LEWIS has put his hat in the ring to replace Jeremy Corbyn as Labour leader vowing to making big changes to the party.
Writing in The Guardian, Mr Lewis said: “The truth is that despite his enormous achievements in inspiring a new generation of members, Jeremy Corbyn’s first promise as leader was never fulfilled.
“The party was never democratised on the scale or to the extent that members were led to expect – they were never empowered to campaign, select candidates or determine policy on the scale that was required.
"This must now change.
“My vision for the country is of warmth and energy. A country that starts every conversation and every project – either in business or politics – with a belief in the best in people. This is the hopeful creed of a 21st-century socialism. It is what motivates our members and our most passionate supporters.

“This is the hopeful creed of a 21st-century socialism. It is what motivates our members and our most passionate supporters. But nowhere near enough voters, Clive. Go figure.
Thornberry is a joke and Lewis wants even more of the same losing formula. It isn't looking good for traditional working class Labour voters, there's no home for them to go back to.
