The battle to succeed Jeremy Corbyn (and more besides)

Last year, Long-Bailey also met with representatives from the Jewish Labour Movement in an attempt to repair relations and tackle the party’s anti-Semitism crisis head-on.

His big break was getting appointed shadow Brexit secretary in 2016, even though he had recently quit from a more junior roleSince the summer, he has been readying himself for the leadership contest that he knew would follow a Labour defeat at a general election.

Len McCluskey, the secretary-general of Unite — the union closest to Corbyn which is seen as near-certain to back Long-Bailey — is also said to be impressed with Nandy’s bid. In the wake of the election defeat,The fact that most members have not yet formed an opinion of Nandy means she has lots of room to garner support — and polls suggest that her positioning on the center left of her party could make her a lot of people’s second preference.

Why not have a law for 'truth in politics?' Yang could fund that. An election is a form of job interview. In an interview, if you lie on your resume' or in the interview you do not get the job. We have laws for 'truth in lending, purchasing, & advertising'
