Based on what I saw at the Manchester hustings this week, if the contest was just based on the quality of the candidates and their policies, Nandy would ganhar. No entanto, não podemos ignorar a batalha estratégica que está acontecendo. Você quer pureza ideológica ou quer vencer? Conservadores e republicanos acham essa uma pergunta fácil de responder. Seu desejo de governar é muito mais importante que as políticas individuais. O trabalho sempre teve um animado debate entre pragmáticos e ativistas. Ele aguçou nos últimos anos, quando Tony Blair, que entregou três vitórias nas eleições, é denunciado como traidor enquanto Jeremy Corbyn recebe dez em dez por duas derrotas. O Partido Trabalhista tem 120 anos este ano e está no poder há 33 anos lamentáveis. Os puristas veem Rebecca Long-Bailey de Salford como a mulher para valorizar o legado de Corbyn. O argumento é que as políticas radicais que eram tão populares nas eleições de 2017 foram frustradas apenas pelo Brexit em 2019. A falha fundamental nesse argumento é que, embora May tenha sido frustrado em sua tentativa de aumentar a maioria dos conservadores, ela ainda venceu e 2019 não foi apenas sobre o Brexit. Foi também sobre Corbyn e uma lista incrível de promessas de manifesto. As indicações são de que a maioria dos apoio vai para Starmer, pois as pessoas temem dividir o voto anti-Bailey se elas se cansarem de Nandy. Nandy está preparado para dizer ao partido algumas verdades domésticas, enquanto Starmer geralmente é equívoco. Eu me pergunto se ele será forte o suficiente para expulsar os anti-semitas e trots. Long-Bailey favorece enquanto Nandy disse que não. Ela acrescentou que, se Jo Platt não tivesse sido distraído por uma batalha de reseleição, ela poderia ter salvado o assento de Leigh de ser conservador.
It mirrors exactly the Democrats dilemma in America. Do you want ideological purity, or do you want to win? Tories and Republicans find this an easy question to answer. Their desire to govern is much more important than individual policies. Labour has always had a lively debate between pragmatists and activists. It has sharpened in recent years as Tony Blair, who delivered three election victories, is denounced as a traitor whilst Jeremy Corbyn is given ten out of ten for two defeats. The Labour Party is 120 years old this year and has been in power for a pitiful 33 years.
Despite this the ideological battle rages on and is likely to damage Nandy’s chance of the top prize. Purists see Salford’s Rebecca Long-Bailey as the woman to cherish the Corbyn legacy. The argument is that the radical policies that were so popular in the 2017 election were only thwarted by Brexit in 2019. The fundamental flaw in this argument is that, although Mrs May was thwarted in her attempt to increase the Tories majority, she still won and 2019 wasn’t just about Brexit. It was also about Corbyn and an incredible list of manifesto promises.
If Long-Bailey wins, Labour members will have decided to be an irrelevant pressure group that can never win power, so who out of Starmer and Nandy is best to stop her? The indications are that most support is going to Starmer as people fear splitting the anti Long-Bailey vote if they plump for Nandy.
Things may change especially if the Wigan MP continues to perform as she did in Manchester. Nandy is prepared to tell the party some home truths whereas Starmer is often equivocal. I wonder whether he will be strong enough to expel the anti-Semites and Trots.
An example of Nandy’s clarity came when the candidates were asked about the idea that every Labour MP should face an open selection before every General Election. Long-Bailey favours it whereas Nandy said no. She added that if Jo Platt had not been distracted by a reselection battle, she might have saved the Leigh seat from going Tory.
perguntei aos candidatos sobre devolução. Na minha opinião, o trabalho de trabalho não possui um plano de devolução claro desde a estrutura regional de John Prescott. Faz parte da razão pela qual as áreas do norte os abandonaram. Agora temos a bagunça de prefeitos eleitos, parcerias da empresa local, dois níveis e um governo local de nível. Keir Starmer falou vagamente sobre uma abordagem de baixo para cima. Long Bailey queria abolir a Câmara dos Lordes, mas para ser justo falou de escritórios regionais do governo. No entanto, Nandy teve o maior pensamento através da resposta. Ela apoiou prefeitos eleitos, mas mais precisava ser feito sobre responsabilidade por cidades periféricas como Wigan. Ela aboliria os leps e daria os poderes aos conselhos e sentiu que o modelo dos RDAs em desenvolvimento econômico tinha mérito no futuro. Caso contrário, ela deve ter um lugar sênior no gabinete das sombras. column_border_radius = "None" width = "1/3 ″ tablet_text_alignment =" default "Phone_text_alignment =" Default "Column_border_width =" None " column_border_style = "sólido"] [vc_raw_html] jtndySuymghyzwylm0qlmjjodhrwcyuzqsuyriuyrnr3ax R0zxiuy29TJTJGSMlTSGFUY29JA1VLJTNGCMVMX3NYYYUZRHR3C3JJJTI1NUV0ZNCLMJILMJBJBGFZCYUZRCUYM nr3axr0zxitzm9sbg93lwj1dhrvbiuymiuymgrHdgetC2HVDY1JB3VUDCUZRCUMMMZHBHNLJTIYJTNFRM9SBG93 JtiwjtqWSMlTSGFUY29JA1VlJTNDJTJGYSUZRSUZQ3NJCMLWDCUYMGFZEW5JJTIWC3JJJTNEJTIYAHR0CHMLM0E lmkylmkzwbgf0zm9ybs50d2l0dgvylmnvbsuyrndpzgdldhmuanMlMjilmjbjagfyc2v0jtnejtiydxrmltglmj Ilm0ulm0mlmkzzy3jpchqlm0u = [/vc_raw_html] [vc_raw_html] jtndySuymgSyxnzjtnejtiydhdpdhrlci 10aw1LBGluzSUymiuymgrHDGETAGVPZ2H0JTNEJTIMYTAWMCUYMIUYMGHYZWYLM0QLMJJODHRWCYUZQSUYRIUYR nr3axr0zxIUy29TJTJGSMLTSGFUY29JA1VLJTNGCMVMX3NYYYUZRHR3C3JJJTI1NUV0ZCLMJILM0VUD2VLDHMLM JBIESUYMEPPBUHHBMNVY2TVSYUZQYUYRMELM0ULMJALM0NZY3JPCHQLMJBHC3LUYYUYMHNYYYUZRCUYMMH0DHBZ JtnbjtjgjTjgCgxHdgzvCM0UDHDPDHRlCI5JB20LMKZ3AWRNZXRZLMPZJTIYJTIWY2HHCnnldCUzrcUymnv0zi0 4jtiyjtnfjtndjtjgc2nyaxb0jtnfjtiw [/vc_raw_html] [vc_raw_html] jtndysUymghyzwylm0qlmjjodhr wcyuzqsuyriuyrnr3axr0zxiuy29tjtjgsmltsgfuy29Ja1vljtngcmvmx3nyyUzrhr3C3JJJti1Nuv0zClmji lmjbjbgfzcyUzrcuymnr3axr0zxitzm9sbg93lwj1dhrvbiuymiuymgrHdgetc2hvdy1jb3vudcUzrcUymmzhbh Nljtiyjtnfrm9sbg93jtiwjtqWSmlTSGFUY29JA1VlJTNDJTJGYSUZRSUZQ3NJCMLWDCUYMGFZEW5JJTIWC3JJ Tnejtiyahr0chmlm0elmkylmkzwbgf0zm9ybs50d2l0dgvylmnvbsuyrndpzgdldhmuanMlMjilmjbjagfyc2v0 Jtnejtiydxrmltglmjilm0ulm0mlmkzzy3jpchqlm0u = [/vc_raw_html] [/vc_column] [/vc_row]
All the candidates agreed it was a mess, but their answers were instructive. Keir Starmer talked vaguely about a bottom up approach. Long Bailey wanted to abolish the House of Lords, but to be fair did speak of regional government offices. However, Nandy had the most thought through answer. She supported elected mayors but more needed to be done about accountability to outlying towns like Wigan. She would abolish LEP’s and give the powers to councils and felt the model of the RDA’s in economic development had merit in the future.
Labour members are now voting, and let’s hope there’s a late surge for Nandy. If not, she must have a senior place in the Shadow Cabinet.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/3″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGSmltSGFuY29ja1VLJTNGcmVmX3NyYyUzRHR3c3JjJTI1NUV0ZnclMjIlMjBjbGFzcyUzRCUyMnR3aXR0ZXItZm9sbG93LWJ1dHRvbiUyMiUyMGRhdGEtc2hvdy1jb3VudCUzRCUyMmZhbHNlJTIyJTNFRm9sbG93JTIwJTQwSmltSGFuY29ja1VLJTNDJTJGYSUzRSUzQ3NjcmlwdCUyMGFzeW5jJTIwc3JjJTNEJTIyaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZwbGF0Zm9ybS50d2l0dGVyLmNvbSUyRndpZGdldHMuanMlMjIlMjBjaGFyc2V0JTNEJTIydXRmLTglMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZzY3JpcHQlM0U=[/vc_raw_html][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIydHdpdHRlci10aW1lbGluZSUyMiUyMGRhdGEtaGVpZ2h0JTNEJTIyMTAwMCUyMiUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGSmltSGFuY29ja1VLJTNGcmVmX3NyYyUzRHR3c3JjJTI1NUV0ZnclMjIlM0VUd2VldHMlMjBieSUyMEppbUhhbmNvY2tVSyUzQyUyRmElM0UlMjAlM0NzY3JpcHQlMjBhc3luYyUyMHNyYyUzRCUyMmh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGcGxhdGZvcm0udHdpdHRlci5jb20lMkZ3aWRnZXRzLmpzJTIyJTIwY2hhcnNldCUzRCUyMnV0Zi04JTIyJTNFJTNDJTJGc2NyaXB0JTNFJTIw[/vc_raw_html][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGSmltSGFuY29ja1VLJTNGcmVmX3NyYyUzRHR3c3JjJTI1NUV0ZnclMjIlMjBjbGFzcyUzRCUyMnR3aXR0ZXItZm9sbG93LWJ1dHRvbiUyMiUyMGRhdGEtc2hvdy1jb3VudCUzRCUyMmZhbHNlJTIyJTNFRm9sbG93JTIwJTQwSmltSGFuY29ja1VLJTNDJTJGYSUzRSUzQ3NjcmlwdCUyMGFzeW5jJTIwc3JjJTNEJTIyaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZwbGF0Zm9ybS50d2l0dGVyLmNvbSUyRndpZGdldHMuanMlMjIlMjBjaGFyc2V0JTNEJTIydXRmLTglMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZzY3JpcHQlM0U=[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]
