Was trying to figure out how it could have happened because it is a pretty stupid thing for them to do!

I meant that ai did it

Work of AI?

Stop incessant polling and implement the programme. Labour does not have time to do a leadership process. Better to insist the leader leads.

Labour needs to get on with its agenda on the assumption that three more years may be all it
