Who will be the next Labour leader?

Alan Johnson to bring some stability and likeability to the party before handing it over to someone who had nothing to do with that lot from 97-2010. Don't know who though.

can't be david. not an mp

burnham has to be favourite surely. cooper not likeable in the slightest and being married to balls won't help

Agree Alan Johnson's a good bet @ 33/1. If he stands, he'll win.

He's a logical candidate but he just hasn't wanted it thus far and he's getting on a bit now.

he's far too old surely. missed his chance in not being prepared to boot out ed in the last couple of years

Think he will play a role like Michael Howard did with the Cons

Andy Burnham.

they can't be giving away the next election though which having johnson would as leader would almost certainly mean

I hold my nose and attempt to suppress a guffaw but watch this space. Chuka Umuna.

Andy Burnham.

with the unions holding so much sway they could elect another leader who has absolutely no chance of winning a general election

Good. They are thick and deserve to get starched again.

Chuka being talked up

evett cooper in frame too

There's got to be a recognition within the party that Labour has to move away from the polished, unprincipled, 40 somethings that made up their leaders election campaign in 2010 and their shadow cabinet since then.

Not many people fit the bill.

Chukka for me.

Although looking at the quailty on offer you could give Facts and Pandora a squeak.

I worry Facts may be a broken man after this.

Burnham is a prik, he would be fantastic for the Tories!

Tom Watson

Burham lost in last contest and if they get Cooper they have no chance could turn milk sour

pandora is well respected perhaps he will have a go?
