What does it look like for Labour that they have 400+ MP's, and they still need to parachute in someone who hasn't been in Westminster for nearly 10 years, and has lost two previous leadership election. It's likely the only time I will be rooting for Reform.
Report impossible123 May 15, 2026 2:38 PM BST
I like the immigration policy of Reform, but I cannot vote for them. Their leader is too slippery, and there's no depth in the make-up of their MPs who are mostly rejects and opportunists from other Parties.

I'd vote for Labour if Andy Burnham is the leader. I also like the immigration policy of Mahmood. Otherwise, Conservative again; a vote for Lib Dem is a wasted vote in my opinion.

Stammer is the shallow one, all ego.

Much has been written about the tears shed during Keir Starmer’s interview with Piers Morgan. But there were laughs too – not least when the Labour leader revealed that his middle name was Rodney.



The audience guffawed at this revelation, confirming why Starmer hated it so much that he pretended he didn’t have a middle name when filling in his marriage certificate in 2007. His friends later played a trick on him by faking a letter from Essex Council which suggested that as he had not used his full name, the marriage was null and void.

Starmer’s father was called Rodney. Originally a surname, it gained popularity as a first name in the late 18th century, courtesy of Admiral George Brydges Rodney, a commander during the American war of independence. It was a moderately popular name in the 1930s and 40s in England and Wales, ranked 48th in 1944, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS). But it was only after 1981, when Starmer was 19, that it became a source of mirth.

He's portrayed as the best of a bad bunch. Mr Ed Miliband, a non-descript PM and Labour leader is also a senior Cabinet member says it all. David, his brother who was smarter, was junked by Labour for lacking charisma and being arrogant.

I hope Mr Burnham is PM material - he's experienced and a good communicator - unlike Sir Shameless who's no experience / lacking charisma and ability to communicate - but for being a former resident of the CPS was parachuted in to challenge the political gravy-trainer with only one paid job Mr Corbyn.

Who knows how the next few years will work out.


FPTP will be consigned to history at some point unless bizarrely Labour and the Tories are able to get their numbers back, but even if they do, most likely not enough that the push towards PR will be so strong.


You can't have significant numbers voting for the Lib Dems, Reform or the Greens, and not have their views represented in Parliament. That may help to confront the increasing apathy.

59% might be considered high for a by election but this one was hyped up to a level we've never seen before. And we still have almost half of the electorate being no shows.
