I think Dawn Butler handled that really well. They were obviously trying to goad her into Corbyn/Left vs Starmer territory.

Until now, I did not know that only three Labour party leaders have ever been elected as Prime Minister - Clement Attlee, Harold Wilson and Tony Blair. Looks like Keir Starmer will the the fourth.

Sorry. I missed Ramsay McDonald. Starmer would be the fifth.

It’s an inane question. You can’t just break down your support to one issue.

Always amazing to me how many small constituencies there are in the UK, makes the map hard to read. The declared aren’t that interesting yet, but it looks like it is going to be a long night for the Conservatives. That one southeastern one that has been declared shows an astonishing 37% drop in their share of popular vote, not much of a victory.
