Well well well.

Maybe she didnt want to do a Swinson after all!

Aw, I like Jess, she's my second choice, but I don't use changing rooms or care who pisses where, as long as they close the door.

If people on MN think they influenced things like who the TUs and local partieis support, I fear they're massively flattering themselves.

Equanimitas · 21/01/2020 15:11

That's a pity, but she's probably being sensible in recognising the realities. I hope she gets a good Shadow post, she is one of the Labour party's assets.

If she couldn't get union backing / backing from enough local parties she was never going to get through to the next round. Worrying if only one candidate has reached the required support levels as yet.

The power of MN Grin

Wonder if this will make any of the rest actually listen.

Gawd. We should have not asked the questions we did

GenderfreeJoe · 21/01/2020 15:09

Oh well. Maybe she can take some time out to understand the biological differences between males and females.

MorrisZapp · 21/01/2020 15:07

Fookin ell. It's for the best. Feel a bit sorry for her now.

Redshoeblueshoe · 21/01/2020 15:03

Well well well

Who is next to do a webchat ?

Or are we too toxic ?

This says she's expected to quit. Not definite yet.
