    Have people cast their ballots for the NEC yet? Whatever else you do, please ensure that disgusting apologist for Saudi atrocities, Luke Akehurst, doesn't get in

      Ah, that reminds me that I have to do mine.

      I was going to leave afterwards as a final "fuck you" to the leadership, but then my MP resigned his front bench position and voted against the Spycops Bill. So now I'm genuinely torn as I can rationalise my fiver a month could be going to him and the local CLP who on the good side.

        Would love some tips- thought I’d left but someone emailed me a vote. Ideally no tERFs Trots or centrists

          Ditto.

            I see Marcus Rashford has attracted the attention of some real scum today. Unlike Angela Rayner I won’t be apologising, that’s what they are. I’m sure that won’t bother Rashford and he’ll continue his campaign, unlike brave silent Sir Keir.

                Whipping for abstention on the separation of families. What the hell is wrong with him? It's sickening.

                  Try the grassroots voice 6 (there's an online tool to rank them in order to get best outcome in your region for the left slate), but leave out Pidcock and Henderson, put Jermain Jackman in and one other.

                  That's my early choice, but I'll refine look at it a bit until the last day, and vote then (give Pidcock and Henderson the chance to 'clarify' their position on trans rights, and/or for other candidates to impress/disappoint), then resign my membership one minute later. Fwiw.

                    Has Cummings kidnapped Starmer's kids or something, or just he have no moral compass whatsoever?

                      I thought someone who used to be on here thought he was like the second coming with ice cream hair or something. Back in his lawyerly days.

                        Jermain Jackman is Ok but he is a big acolyte of Stella Creasy, which means he's likely to do her very particular and idiosyncratic left-baiting bidding.

                          Starmer really doesn't like a scrap, does he?

                          Angela Rayner on the other hand

                          Bradley is making a fool of himself all over the place.

                            Thanks for that, it's exactly the sort of info I'm giving myself time to discover.

                                      Unfuckingbelievable. Stephen Kinnock is too much of a rebel for him.

                                        For all his faults as a human being, Blair was at least always upfront about who he was, and what his vision for Labour was. Starmer basically fucking lied through his teeth for the entire leadership campaign.

                                          Though at least I shall have front page articles about it to read on the front pages of the BBC and Graun, plus outraged tweets from Austin, Mann, Streeting, Riley and Baddiel any... time... soon.

                                            this is actually directly in opposition to the Jewish Labour Movement position
                                            they issued the following statement in July

                                            The agreed make up of the Israeli Government now gives a green light to the annexation of the West Bank. Not only will this likely result in further conflict, but it will make much needed progress towards peace almost impossible.

                                            JLM will continue to strongly oppose any annexation of the West Bank. We believe the only way to peace is through a two state solution; a secure Israel alongside a secure and viable Palestine.

                                              I cast my NEC votes for the Momentum recommended six, with AH on the bottom as she apparently has Teeeeeerrrrfffy inclinations. If people aren't raving Gender Crits there's always the hope that they'll change their minds and IMO the priority is to keep shits like Akehurst in check.

                                                Possibly he indicated left and then turned right?
