Wrong-Daily:"Labour had "a great set of policies" at the general election but got its "messaging" wrong" - err no, you got your butts kicked.
Agent COB: "We won the argument" - then why are you not in no 10?

No, she really doesn't get it.
Describing Corbyn's leadership as "10 out of 10" and on their absurd policies “[I didn't] just agree with the policies, I’ve spent the last four years writing them”
She's about as far detached from political reality as it's possible to be. If Corbyn was such a great leader, and if their polices were so great, suggesting the message was wrong and blaming the media is pathetic.
Fortunately, the ones that matter, the voting public, saw through their abject nonsense.

There's very little evidence that Labour's manifesto was the chief reason for the defeat, so the idea that the electorate "saw through their abject nonsense" is probably not accurate. Not to say that the manifesto wasn't a crock of crap, overstuffed as it was with increasingly elaborate promises. But it comes a distant third in the list of Labour's problems in the election, behind a terrible leader and a terrible policy on Brexit. Perhaps even fourth, because the refusal to cooperate with the Liberal Democrats at the same time that Farage's Brexit Party capitulated meant that the Opposition was divided at the exact time it needed not to be.
I can understand any loser in a General Election admitting that they got it wrong, but to claim that they go it right, but simply didn't communicate that they were right, is a simple refusal to accept simple political reality.
Hopefully the party will understand that replacing one leader who has no grasp of reality with another who is the same, is not the way to win the next election.

I don't agree that defeat in an election, or a debate generally, is cause to abandon your core beliefs. If nothing else, Labour's solution to their problems can hardly be to become the Conservatives in all but name. If the two manifestos were identical except maybe because of the font where would be the choice?
Still, Labour swung too far to the left, offered too much too fast, and failed -- a failure I too shared, lest I sound too self-righteous -- to properly assess the mood of the country with regard to the central issue of the day.
