David Miliband (remember him? The bloke that lost leadership to his brother, so obviously no sour grapes there) seems to think that voting for Corbyn would create a 1 party tory state! Not sure how he got to that conclusion as that's effectively what we have at the moment with a useless Labour party! He's supporting Kendall, which hows where his loyalties lie, and a really good indicator as to why he lost his own leadership challenge, i.e. the toxic legacy of blair and the consequences of supporting him.

Just described memorably on Twitter as a "banker-noshing dullard". Apt. Very apt.

Funnily enough I had the same conversation with someone this morning: "wonder when they'll wheel Mandy out", so your spider senses were obviously tingling.
It would be funny if only it wasn't.

To be honest the party would be better without them in the long term.

For those for whom the candidates attitude to Palestine is important in determining who gets their vote, it is worthwhile visiting the website of Labour Friends of Palestine and the Middle East, http://www.lfpme.org There are sections devoted to the Labour Leadership and also, in the Palestine in Parliament section, a full list of MPs who are LFPME members. All leadership and deputy leadership candidates were invited to give statements which may be perused indicating their feelings regarding this salient global political issue. Of the leadership candidates, all replied apart from Natalie Bennett. Of the deputy leadership candidates, all replied apart from Angela Eagle. Jeremy Corbyn and Andy Burnham are LFPME members, and, for the deputy leadership, the only candidate who is a member is Tom Watson. No Stella Creasey. It will be interesting to see what LFPME component there is in Corbyn's team should he win.
