Don't think I'll sign up this time but I do recommend they change the announcement day to April 1st from April 4th, would be much more appropriate. RLB threw her hat in today, so 6 runners now, going to be interesting but I'd hoped the Abacus/Lammy would run.

[ToraToraTora]

[ToraToraTora]

Has Jezza resigned?

[Mozz71]

If only you hadn't bought all that champagne!

[ToraToraTora]

JD he's staying until replaced, he's not standing.

The fee was increased from £3 to £25 in 2016 when Corbyn's leadership was challenged by Owen Smith.

Toying with the idea of risking a fiver on Jess Phillips (14/1 with Willy Hill). She is no fan of Corbyn, which may detract from her chances, but if the Labour Party are serious about regaining lost support, a big change is needed.

[Jackdaw33]

This R L-B, who is the MP from across the river from me, sounds like a Corbyn clone.

[naomi24]

Her nickname is Rebecca Wrong-Daily. A Corbyn acolyte.

[Jackdaw33]

Let's hope she wins then, unless Abbott and Lammy enter the fray. Boris will have a field day with her at the despatch box.

[naomi24]

Quite honestly, Jackdaw, I think Boris will have a field day with any of them. They're all out of his league.

[grumpy01]

He will with any of them Jackdaw.I cannot see,at the moment,anyone who can make Labour electable.

[emmie]

i wouldn't pay that for any party, what a scam.

[youngmafbog]

The next leader of the labour party wont be the next labour PM. Probably why the likes of Watson are staying out.

[ToraToraTora]

the next Labour PM hasn't been born yet YMB! PMSL, Looks like I'll be Rooting for Rebecca Wrong-Daily, she's got a decent nick name already, saves me coming up with one. I assume Starmer is the jolly in this race. Pity Abacus or the Lamster aren't standing.

I see her as the failure continuity candidate.

I went onto the Labour website to look at joining but it tried to sign me up to a membership subscription of £25 per month.

It's almost as if they're not keen on the current membership changing just in case a non-looney looks like becoming popular.
