There's very little to be gained in spending decades on the opposition benches and protesting , you change nowt sat there .
Starmer is very good in the HOC , so was William Hague but he got battered by Blair at the election so that tells you how much worth there is in that aspect of it .
Policies Wardy , policies mate and another way , not Blairism but Starmerism , this is the challenge for SKS .
At least we have a leader at long last who isn't a monkey on our backs so it's a good start , there's a root and branch analysis of what's gone wrong in the heartlands going on , the party are talking to real people and listening to what they are getting told , that's going on right now remotely .
There's much to do but no matter what the left tell you Corbyn did lose the argument , the election result tells you so .
I lost the argument , it's an uncomfortable truth but it is the truth .
We have to change direction Wardy or the party will forever sit in opposition .
The way I see it right now , a centre left Labour Party is definitely more palatable than a bunch of right wing nut jobs destroying the UK for good .
