@lukeakehurst @pault199 I think the Burgon rumour has to be a joke, can't imagine a single MP that would back him, why they kept putting him on TV throughout the campaign was beyond me

@lukeakehurst @colinrtalbot Stay and fight, eh? #EnoughIsEnough eh? If there isn't, a realignment, it will mean right wing hegemony. Your choice, not mine. But then I am no longer a tribalist

@LucyMPowell @lukeakehurst @steve_race Jeez. This was you. You did this. Even now, you seem completely incapable of taking any responsibility at all for it.

@lukeakehurst Narrator: They won't

@LucyMPowell @lukeakehurst @steve_race Doesn’t account for disaster in Scotland ... or was that already factored in?

@lukeakehurst Can you remind us of the new leadership and deputy leadership process?

@lukeakehurst difference though is McGovern won 23% of the democratic vote in primaries, so went into the campaign with a much more divided party. Labour's problems are worse: a party which overwhelmingly backs/ed a leader and platform which can't win in the country

The problem with having a counter-cultural leader and supporters is that if you stand in opposition to the mainstream culture of a country you can't possibly win a democratic election.

@599bt @lukeakehurst @DAaronovitch @ayeshahazarika Nothing about the party has changed. The post-election abuse and hate is as strong as ever. https://t.co/k3idxHJBKM

@MJCreighton @DAaronovitch @lukeakehurst @599bt @ayeshahazarika Can't help but feel this "review" is going to be a bit like BlackBerry execs 5 years ago scratching their heads asking why they've been overtaken by Apple and Samsung, and then concluding they need to stick to their guns as smart phone users will soon come to their senses.

@DAaronovitch @lukeakehurst @599bt @ayeshahazarika The current leadership team are ensuring they retain all the levers of power to allow a chosen successor best run at another blind alley. It will take the organisation that @lukeakehurst suggests, but the forthright committed leadership of a single person to win against the odds.

@johnmichaelw @DAaronovitch @599bt @ayeshahazarika Fine if you are happy being a spectator, spectate. Personally I prefer to try to shape the political future of the country I live in rather than let other people do things that affect me and my family.

@PhotogMatty @LucyMPowell @steve_race That will be news to some of "my lot" like @spellar and @RuthSmeeth . Labour First includes people with a wide spectrum of opinions on Brexit.

@LucyMPowell @lukeakehurst @steve_race What nonsense. You voted against the deal again and again. Anyway, your hopeful call for not being factional is ridiculous when the left are in charge of all institutions and are as you type either rigging the party for their successor or preparing to scuttle it.

@DrRGSmith @lukeakehurst Momentum have nothing to do withJVL. And the JVL briefing was written by Jewish people and wasn’t an instruction about how to behave on the doorstep. So I don’t know what you mean?

@GjMellors @lukeakehurst It was very much along the lines of the JVL briefing note on how to deal with accusations of antisemitism. Jeremy was a secular saint. As they left, I shouted after them "You're destroying the Labour Party."

@rk70534 @Smithy0364 @lukeakehurst @RedWedgie The absolute inability to be remotely self critical, this conspiratorial world view where NOTHING ever has to be your own fault is one that I am not going to miss. Good riddance to you and yours. You're done. Please leave graciously (as if).

@rk70534 @lethalbiznull @lukeakehurst @RedWedgie A magazine with a circulation of 20,000!!! You must live in a very small bubble.

@davidwhitelab @lukeakehurst Perish the thought that you might want to actually try and learn some lessons from how Labour won three elections. Until you get over that, Labour will win sweet FA.

@lukeakehurst 1) is correct. 2) depends on how Labour responds to 1).

@scoobysusan10 @lukeakehurst A leader has to take responsibility and make the weather, this sort of special pleading is deeply unimpressive. He’s turned labour into a protest movement.

@lukeakehurst @TheWhittards Correct. I have relations who are ex miners in the North who are not going to vote. Refuse to vote Tory and state they cannot vote for Corbyn. That is the problem, the Leader

@lukeakehurst Luke, I don’t know you at all but your name has cropped up a few times over the last few years. You mostly seem to be criticising the Labour Party - just wondering if maybe you’d be happier in another party - just a thought.

@lukeakehurst You can't always get what you want. Do you really think that Blair or Brown would be in a better position now?

@lukeakehurst Seems unnecessary, still using the same data with the same volunteers whether you enter it into an ap or write it on a board to enter later. GDPR shouldn’t be an issue

@MJAxworthy There was a Labour canvassing app in period around 2017/18 but I think it was withdrawn when GDPR came in.
