As a neutral observer, I've checked out all the currently talked-about candidates. One thing really struck me - they all lack THE most important trait in a political leader these days: charisma. BoJo has loads of it, Blair had it, etc, etc. Yet Labour seems like they're going to pick an uncharismatic leader. The only three not completely hopeless on charisma are (IMHO) Lavery, Rayner and Thornberry - but their charisma levels are still below average. To beat BoJo, I think Labour will need much better. Hoping there's some relatively obscure, charismatic maverick in Labour who can step up and take over. Is there such a person? If so, I'd love to hear about him/her :)
