Not Mahmoud or Streeting. No more Blue Labour. No more Reform Lite. No more support for genocide (though, oddly, Streeting is slightly less insane on that topic than Mahmood).
How is this even a debate?
What possible case is there for Wes?
Ed Milliband still has integrity and some left-wing views.
Does the current labour party want that? That's the sort of thing they've been trying to get rid of for a few years.
If they still want the opposite, Wes Streeting is their man - a slimy right-wing NHS-hating twat with a balloon for a head who looks like he's going to knock on my door and try and sell me dodgy overpriced double glazing.
Ed Milliband still attracts a lot of ire from the parliamentary party for being the wrong Miliband. They haven’t forgiven him for beating St David to the leadership.
Get Keir to do it 😆
