Not exactly news is it? *He's been saying it for years.

I actually think it would be a mistake because he would be too easy a
target for the loons on the right. *Labour need a proper contest to
select their candidate and we have to hope there is a decent field to
choose from and people who have plenty of good ideas.

The same applies to any other party actually - we need democracy to be
healthy and we need a good combative campaign (without television
debates!) for the job.

I was predicting that he'd be Prime Minister in Labour/Tory Coalition,
but that hasn't quite happened yet.

(Well, why not? Boris Johnson got elected Mayor after all.
Anything's possible.)
