Number Twos on Newsnight

In what frankly, even by political anorak standards, is a boring campaign so far, tonight offers the prospect of some interest as they go face-to-face tonight on Newsnight.

Benn is now favourite, followed by Johnson. Punters make the rest also rans. Guido has a little money on Harman with an outside chance...

I have asked before and I will ask again.. Who are these people? And what do they want from us?? I am beginning to feel a little panicky about this -am I the only one who doesn't know??

mutley, morbid interest leads me to ask, who is the one between the PORG and the chap who has been playing with the special orange ones' make up box. And doesn't the caratonic stare make her an unlikely candidate for any leadership role ?

I can see why they want prezzas job you get to swan around the world at our expense and you have nothing to do.punch a few voters shag the odd secretary get fat.

Everyone knows that the post they're fighting for isn't important as Mr Brown will make all the policy decisions. So the irrelevancy has made it very dull, with candidates taking it in turns to make lefty braying noises to the herd voting for them.

Surely Harmann's too close to the unions, after-all she's in-bed with Jack (WhereTheFuckDidAllThat MoneyComeFrom)Dromey.
Besides which she's po-faced nasty piece of work.
I say, vote for Blears, now there's a nice buffoon.

In a way, yes, Blears. If there is anyone who will trigger heads-on-spikes, it is her. The faster this kleptocratic regime is kicked out the better, so Blears is the quickest route.

The only thing stopping me fully supporting the mad harridan is the thought of yet more taxpayers money being spent on that rancid monster.

I admit that Blears photo is funny.

So long as they don't reveal their source again...

Wait a minute, that was you!

Chipmunk for la Presidenta!

Who can fail to drawn to her with her perma-grin. Go on, be rash, throw her a peanut.

'Policies' did you say? - Noo, she doesn't do those.

Who gives a shit? Every single one of them is without a single redeeming feature. Whichever buffoon is chosen, the result will be the same. More idiocy, more corruption and more opression.

Can't see Benn winning it. He won't get enough of the union vote and won't get enough support from the PLP/MEP/Peers either. He'll do nicely from the membership, but that won't be enough.
