The Wigan MP’s ‘change or die’ message plays well with members. It’ll be a challenge, but I wouldn’t rule out the prospect of her overtaking Rebecca Long-Bailey and Keir Starmer

Wigan MP Lisa Nandy has announced she wil stand for the leadership. In a letter to the Wigan Post she said she wanted to bring Labour"home" to voters in its traditional strongholds who have abandoned the party. Nandy went on to say that she understands"that we have one chance to win back the trust of people in Wigan, Workington and Wrexham." A YouGov poll shows that Nandy is the first preference for 6% of partymembers.
