I get what you are saying but they do that and they will never win power again. And I think a strong Labour Party in England is essential for Scotland if we Gain independence.

I actually think someone like Starmer stands the best chance of uniting the party. Corbynism is over and the 'hard left' are actually quite small in number. Most members were drawn to Corbyn because they wanted socialism and radical politics, not because they agreed with his views on Europe or a lot of things.

Starmer reminds me of Blair a little when he got elected, speak radical and keep as broad a support as you can. He hasn't given long Bailey a chance to attack him for not being left enough either. So far he has avoided any divisive public position that would lose him votes. Thats how you win leadership elections, it shows he at least has a brain which is a major plus when you see the other candidates.
