Some of us who have been around long enough to have voted for Michael Foot don't much care if the new blow-ins disappear as rapidly as they appeared. What we need is a Labour government united(ish) behind a leader. If Starmer can deliver that's fine. If he can deliver the vote of enough of the middle ground to oust the Tories, who cares what he drives?

Fuck off, I’m not playing your dumb game of naming some rando MP. Starmer is going to be a useless squib of an opposition leader but feted in the right (wing) places. However, what he absolutely will not do is be effective in using the Corbyn supporters that joined the Labour Party looking for real change and community action - those guys are already fucked off by the dossier that came out and dropping party affiliations. What’s the sell to ground pounders now? “Starmer: he’s like nice solicitor guy who drives an Audi but is actually ok”
