People actually found Corbyn's policies popular but the Murdoch press made him the most smeared politician I have ever seen.
Some of those policies will no doubt be taken up by Boris to claim as his own. Northern Rail being a prime example.

Come on, if you are 50 you know that Corbyn was a total disaster. Long bailey would just perpetuate that. No one will argue with most of the policies as long as they are prioritised convincingly and sequenced in a way that is actually deliverable. Corbyn was a massive tw*t and an utter wang, and continues to be useless and wholly ineffective. Long Bailey wil be identikit as she is blatantly hopeless at everything she has done so far and visibly so far out of her depth she needs a submarine. And she knows it.
I want some of those policies progressed and the smug bunch of total shitheads we have now blown out forever. I think Nandy has become my favourite, but only Starmer has a real shout with the ‘great’ British electorate.
It’s not about legalising anything. It’s giving workers legal protection against being punished or disadvantaged for not being available 24/7 to answer calls and/or emails. I’m not saying whether it’s needed or not but I’d imagine there are people working for less scrupulous employers who may welcome such protection. The article you keep selectively quoting from mentions that a similar law has recently been introduced in France. And for the record, if I had any votes in the Labour leadership election, which I don’t, none of the, would be going to Long-Bailey.
You’re under no legal obligation to ever answer your phone or email outside working hours already. Any unscrupulous employers doing this are probably already breaking existing harassment laws.
If you’re getting bombarded with texts and phone calls do as that kid in Grange Hill said. Just say no.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

I quite like Nandy too. The others are just vile individuals.

Just listened to a programme about the election campaign on Radio 4, Labour campaign manager saying that there was infighting during the campaign, for example McDonnell went out on a limb with the Free Broadband announcement when the campaign was trying to focus on the NHS at the time.

I understand the NHS is vitally important to pretty much everyone in the grand scheme of things but is it really a great vote winner? Every single campaign they focus primarily on the NHS over everything else and it never works.

A clash of egos and “policy incontinence”, plus woefully amateur organisation and the bizarrely delusional targeting of 100 Tory seats.
A lot of the time it does seem like they hate each other more than they hate the Tories.
That’s always been the Labour way. One of the main differences between Labour and the Tories has always been that Labour likes to do its bloodletting very publicly and very messily. With a few exceptions, the Tories have always carried out their carnage behind closed doors.

I like a good Star Wars analogy. The Tories are like the Sith, craving each other’s power and ruthlessly and efficiently taking over the galaxy with a front of unity even though they are secretly constantly searching for ways to overthrow each other.
Labour are like the Jedi, who sit around talking, just watching and waiting, doing f*ck all while the galaxy is burning and even when a talented lad who can change everything and has real talent comes along they’re all like “no Anakin, we will not grant you the rank of master because you’re not pure enough. You just run along to that crappy little constituency and guard that hot senator you’ve been secretly lusting after since you were nine. Leave the important watching and waiting, doing f*ck all stuff to us.”

What makes me laugh is the fact that the centrists are saying we must be united yet if RLB gets the nod they will be off.
I'm not a fan of any of them and Starmer would be Blair MK2
