Please let it be Lammy. I can see his shadow cabinet now. In charge of Energy and Industrial Strategy Mahatma Coat with an assistant, Schooww Son to do all the leg work. International Trade Phakeeta Phags. Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs the delightfully named, if a little saucy, Dee Panpy Zaa, and Eva Vestoff to front Culture Media and Sport. With a nod to Baga Chipz for the idea. :))
the following explains how labour leadership process works, and why it's more likely that left wing candidates will make it on to the ballot paper.

Yes we all know that the current rules for electing a Labour leader favour the left of the party. However “Corbynism” as such is dead. It died with Corbyn politically on Dec 12. That’s not to say that the hard left won’t try to retain control of the party and almost certainly will do unless the rules change. But it won’t be “Corbynism” and it won’t be Corbyn who was pretty much a dinosaur. Any new leader will be younger, probably female more competent and more voter friendly - not that that would be difficult.
I'm pretty sure that it was only a couple of days ago that the AB right were hoping for a stronger, more central opposition party to keep complacency from setting in and offer a true alternate for voters. Now you guys want Labour to implode and give Boris a free reign for the next decade or so. Make your minds up folks.
