I think they should move before the May elections if they’re serious. They shouldn’t wait till a terrible defeat forces them to act, especially if - as looks likely - Reform will be the beneficiaries of that defeat.

      Well apparently I’m not from the north because when I ask my parents about him they said who? So he obviously doesn’t have as much reach.

        I’m about as southern as you can get. Yet know about him. As far as I can tell. Pretty much anyone with more then minimal interest in politics would recognise his name. Certainly anyone within Labour as his name as come up for leadership a few times.
