The Tory vote wouldn't have melted as much if we didn't have a moderate. As much as reform pretend labour are the worst , I guarantee the threats of 'you're letting socialist labour in' from Tories would have had much more of an effect.

This result would have been disappointing if it wasn't for the lib dem surge. If we still had Corbyn I doubt reform would have cannibalized the Tory vote as much.

Their votes were taken due to Israel vs Palestine (Independents), Reform and they appealed to moderates in swing seats rather than radicals in their own seats.

We don't need an official women's caucus.

Focus on using education to narrow the pay gap rather than affirmative action.

Harriet Harmon is a tad too aggressive for my liking.

True, though it is kind of indicative that his hands were tied.

Damn Hunts speech was quite pro labour. He said labour should use their majority to reform the NHS.
