The Labour leader’s first party conference speech sought to extinguish Corbynism with a promise of ‘never again’

The new leader had taken charge of the party after a catastrophic defeat. He was not yet sure how much Labour would have to change if it were to see power again, and he knew every step would be greeted by howls of betrayal from some on the left, but he understood that change it must. So in his first leader’s speech to the party conference, he chose to make the assembled activists relive the trauma of their election loss. “Remember how you felt on that dreadful morning of 10 June.

When Corbyn went 2 pts ahead they started factional infighting and antisemitism fantasies.

nobody defends workers' rights. it's all a lie.

Labour are better off in oppostion, I doubt the Tories are that happy about having to deal with Corvid 19 and Brexit both are no win situations.

Just give me someone who can deliver a bit of what I want rather than someone who can deliver nothing. He isn't perfect but he isn't Johnson.

AS a TU/Labour activist for over seventy years I say until people forget the betrayal of 2016 ballot box Labour is STUFFED !

He appears to be a serious politician - a man of integrity. Hopefully he will rethink the party’s support for self ID

Fact- if you aren't in power you can't change anything

We don’t want someone to win elections. Winning the argument is what’s important.

Why do people still think dropping Clause IV was one of the reasons why Blair won when Smith was already 20 points ahead? Blairism is a lie and a con trick. Always has been.

Keir Starmer is a true statesman. He has a presence about him and a confidence that makes him very electable. How anyone could consider bozo johnson a viable leader is beyond me.

First in a good, long while.

He is his own man ///
