  1. Yet even that is not enough. Successive Labour leaders enabled and indulged #Mandelson, despite clear evidence of trouble. #Kinnock first promoted Mandelson. #JohnSmith wisely shunned Mandelson, but #Blair & #GordonBrown both brought #Mandelson into senior government posts, and even made him an #EUcommissioner.

    This isn't about #OllyRobɓins, or Mandelson, or even Starmer & McSweeney. It's about 2 generations of thoroughly rotten politics in a major political party.

  11. Shameless lift from a famous #kinnock speech by the despicable #dailyMail (bought for the schadenfreude!)

    I LOVE the reference to #tacticalVoting - the irony of all these reverse compliments is delicious!

    Well I think it is a bit different - Militant was a long-lasting problem that #Kinnock spent years neutralising - in the process he became too associated with that fight to win an election (I think he was LOTO 9 years!)

    #Momentum was not as deeply rooted in the party - many were entryists (both far left & Tory right) under the foolish Milliband scheme to encourage mass voting on Labour leadership - Starmer once leader has spent little time removing them from influence
