  1. Well that didn't last long 🤣

    Stalking horse / stalking donkey #CatherineWest MP has been put out to pasture after only two days.

    The #LabourParty's fans of #AndyBurnham were furious that she was trying to start a leadership election before #Burnham was eligible.

    So they mafe her eat her words. 😅

  3. #WesStreeting for leader of the so-called "#LabourParty"?

    #AngelaRayner's tax tangles are unresolved. #AndyBurnham is still out of Parliament. Of the three main leadership hopefuls, only #Streeting is ready.

    So if #CatherineWest triggers a leadership contest, Streeting may win.

    I hate Streeting's politics, but I was struck by #OwenJones & #AaronBastani toying with the idea that a Streeting leadership might be helpful, since it would speed the destruction of the rotten Labour Party.

  4. #CatherineWest MP is being described as a stalking horse. But she comes across more as a stalking donkey.

    West makes the case for a new leader. Her analysis has some merit for those who want the so-called #LabourParty to survive. (I prefer to bury it.)

    But one of the big flaws of her case is its spokesperson. West's delivery and demeanour are charmless and soporific. She is a dull person to escape from, not to follow.

    But is charmlessness is a big handicap for a stalking donkey?
