I'm sure the pundits are going to try and spin a narrative that it's an out-of-control McSweeney - an outlier in the Labour machinery - that's driven Labour so far to the right, and that without him it would have been and will be sunshine and rainbows, to which I say:

It's good to finally see stuff in the mainstream press on all this (www.ft.com/content/23e9...) (I say finally because I made the below meme over a year ago), but let's see if all the dots are joined or as with recent Noticing on racism the buck only stops half way

You're in the pub, the Six Nations is on, you hear someone shouting words like "clunge" and "banter". You look up, this is what you see
