Thornbury just looks the same to me she always looks smart although dreary eyed.

R.L. Bailey has smartened herself up in the past year but still has clown eyebrows.

As for Jess Philips she always looked grubby to me but now she's  making a stand she seems to have had just a little change of dress but still looks dowdy.

If they are going to chose a female I'd  go for Lisa Mandy, she's smart looking and talks almost sense but she said today that the Tories have split Labour, no they haven't  they've  split themselves.

Why does it matter what they look like? I notice that you are only concerned with the appearance of the female candidates

Nandy hasn’t split the party.

 

That honour goes to the entryists. 
 

I’m assuming that you’ll be throwing your weight behind the new quasi-democratically elected leader, even if it is Nandy.  Or Starmer.

It’s like a democratically elected leader.

 

Only different.

 

An accurate description of the process to elect the new Labour leader.

How is "splitting the party" warning that the leader is about to lead them over a cliff?

I’m questioning that claim.

 

The election process is far from democratic.  It is dominated by disproportionately represented pressure groups. It is also very vulnerable to entryists and to vote rigging.

 

Its far from a democratic process.

Should members blindly follow the leader when it's obvious to the majority of the known universe the leader is leading them to disaster?

I don't like blind obedience in following an obviously disastrous course of action (obvious to anyone who wasn't in the labour left echo chamber).

 

Many Labour members correctly openly disagreed with and protested against the democratically elected leader over Iraq.

so i guess you will agree that Johnson wasnt democratically elected then? i mean it wasn't exactly a level playing field, what with the media nearly 100% behind him...

Because it would have been futile - Blair had won two general elections and the only remotely credible candidate was Brown.

 

Corbyn meanwhile was viewed as going nowhere fast and likely to end in disaster.
