I'm backing Chukka.

[shoota]

I hope they retain Mr Moribund - then they stand a snowballs chance in hell...

[Svejk]

Snigger!

[dannyk13]

Anyone willing to stand up to the unions but that will never happen.

[jomifl]

Chuka seems slicker and more urbane than Milliband and as another privileged son of a wealthy immigrant who has been in parliament long enough to find out where the nearest clubs are he should make an ideal candidate...as far as the tories are concerned.

[Svejk]

Give them a chance to find somebody who can lie straight in bed, danny, before there's any 'standing-up' talk.

[maggiebee]

Well, I just hope it's someone who can spell.

[ToraToraTora]

jomifl.....you little tinker, you've found me out!

[Gromit]

// I'm backing Chukka. //

You're only picking him because he is the most useless ;-)

[brionon]

How clever you wrote Noo instead of New-what a brain !

[maggiebee]

And can't even spell the man's name correctly.

[youngmafbog]

Here you go TTT

We could still end up with Balls in No10 - just think of that !!

[naomi24]

Labour doesn't even know who's going to be voting. How do you expect them to elect a half-sensible leader?

[dave50]

Someone who has previously worked in the real world ie not someone who gone from university straight into politics.

[craft1948]

I'd go for Kinnock's son, he could carry on his father's good work...

[Svejk]

They should have made Alan Johnson leader years ago. Hell, I might have voted for them.

[whirlyhurly]

So far there is nobody in the frame that I have any confidence in. Certainly not bland Chukka,

[bednobs]

andy burnham i reckon - although i don't know if i could listen to a leader with a liverpool accent

[The Builder]

Crafty's idea could be good, except that it would make our position in the EC a little difficult.

Negotiating with Denmark .......... in bed ;o)

I like Andy Burnham too, for me he seems to represent better traditional Labour values, his background and links with the Unions etc...

I reckon Chuka or Liz Kendall might clinch it though, probably Chuka out of the two, now Dan Jarvis has rules himself out.

Tristram Hunt, dare I say it, sounds a bit too Tory style background.

In need of a new New Labour which makes me thing they may go for a younger trailblazer rather than an old hat.
