you would never have guessed that on AB judging by the sour grapes consumed post count. :-)

I think the term 'fighting like a sack of ferrets in a sack' was once used by John Prescott to describe the tory party at war over EU
Seems nothing has changed - it could explain Dan Jarvis' reluctance to stand for Labour leadership too

The evidence for such a statement seems a bit tenuous.

"Initial post-election focus groups by Ms Mattinson, founding director of the Britainthinks consultancy, uncovered a feeling of relief among Labour voters than the party had not won. One supporter in Ealing Central and Acton confessed to being “a little bit disappointed and a little bit relieved.”"

They are not half as glad as everybody else :-)

I don't think that it is a true representation, I'll bet that mikey wasn't asked if he was glad that Labour didn't win.

I can't imagine that was the feeling among the rank and file.

Mickey - your thoughts?

Bizarre.
I don't know any Labour supporters who were glad Labour lost
Even odder that someone from Ealing Central and Acton, one of Labour's several London gains, should feel like that.

"Many people felt Labour was not talking to them because it raised issues such as zero hours contracts, the living wage and food banks, she said. "
Those will be the folk not affted by zero hours contracts etc etc
Who on earth were they surveying??
