Shame he would have been a good bet. I guess its down to Andy Burnham.

Filthy Blairite. Good riddance, hope there's a good scandal in there somewhere..

Nigey will be going nowhere, Farron is a shoe in for the Libs, a gay hating god botherer no less while every candidate for the Labs who lasts more than 48 hrs in the race sounds more like a card carrying Tory than someone who should be the standard bearer for what is supposed to be a labour movement.

Both the Libs and Labs face a real struggle to get back into the game, they have both lost credibility and have no obvious new leader to pull them back together. The Tories have an enormous advantage as long as the SNP hang tough, now with the Libs out of the way they can adjust many constituency boundaries which will put their lead and a chunk more into the bank, I can see UKIP forging on but mainly at the expense even further of Labour. The Greens may have a little more in the tank but they really have to lose the loony tag before they can move on up, so bye bye Natalie.

I'm no expert on the internal machinations of the Green Party, but isn't their policy decided by the membership rather than the leadership? In which case they could have Margaret Thatcher or Genghis Khan as their leader and it wouldn't make fook all difference.

Their policies seem to have come from a bunch of Trots on dope, but whatever your policies you need someone to sell them, Nats couldn't sell pizza to their policy team.

one of the most confusing sports there is.


Shame chuka pulled out as i felt he probably would have made a good leader for the labour party. Not sure who is going to be front runner now but i truly hope they dont pick Yvette Cooper as that move will seal a 3rd term for the tories lead by osbourne this time.

Don't worry they'll pick whoever the unions say.......years of the wilderness will be in front of them.

Chuka was always doomed after an endorsement by alleged hamster lover & slime ball extraordinaire mandelson.

It'll be Scouse Andy. At least he seems human which is a good start be their recent standards, don't mention Mid Staffs though.

Len McCluskey head of the Unite Union has said he is in favour of Andy Burnham......so there's your Union Puppet......as I've already said, look forward to years in the wilderness for the Labour Party....becoming un-electable.......Ed Miliband's successor.......you can almost see the strings.

If the electrate felt that Labour had gone too far left......well they haven't seen anything yet....McCluskey is getting too powerful......I can see a major Union v Governmemt war looming......the problem is that the Unions have very little in the way of members these days.....since Thatcherism took on Scargill......so many non-Union firms around these days......many firms don't want to know if your in a Union and do not recognize them in their workplace.
