It never occurred to me to trust starmer as i remember blairite/brownite keir and hav never thought of him as anything else (plus he's a sir which is a sure sign). Latest poll (yeah it's yougov) showed starmer winning on first preference - but i heard that long-bailey won among members who joined between 2015 and 2019, and starmer won by a large margin among the 100,000 members who joined since the election (maybe hypocritical to complain about entryism, but i will anyway). Not that i'm enamoured with RLB at all - she seems willing to capitulate on command - but she's the only one who's talking about socialist policies with any sort of conviction - if she loses it will be taken as permission to purge even more people and policies to make the party 'electable' again (ie establishment approved), so i'll probably fcuk off then (or stick around a while just to vote against the pricks when i can). The effort is being made on all sides to conflate socialism with corbyn, and to dismiss them both together, but in the post election ashcroft polling i saw, the main reason given in the 'red wall' for not voting labour was 'the leadership' (meaning the smear campaign imo) and brexit, but was NOT the policies (they were on a few percent).
