lisa nandy.u've said i've heard for the last decade and i think brexit was the straw that broke the camels back in ex coalfield communities like mine, but it has been a long time coming. we have to be clear about our values and be honest with people. we want to make deep, transformative change in the country and we believe in public ownership and we should be clear about that. we want compassionate society where we are decent and kind to people, especially people facing adversity and that have difficult lives, but we also need to show a level of respect to people, and when we are asked a question and said it was up to you, we should have been respectful of the answer. i'm somebody who campaigned for remain and wanted to remain and if i'm honest, i want to remain now, but i accepted the fact that we lost the argument and when we promised in 2017 we would leave the european union with a deal, we should have gone and fought for the deal and agreed the deal and got on with it andi agreed the deal and

but obviously keir starmer is way out in front it looks increasingly difficult for either lisa nandiailey to catch him up. the theory put forward by andrew giese in this piece is he thinks there is still a way that lisa nandi might win if she manages. she gets first and second preferences and voting. laughter. when two. he is saying that if lisa manages to over ta ke saying that if lisa manages to over take rebecca to get in the second place, she could pick up enough of the second preference balance votes from rebecca to then overtake keir starmer and they think that is her path to victory although he says he is still thinks that is unlikely to happen. do you think there is any chance of keir starmer not when?” think, it is very hard to poll labour party members. that's not winning. we don't really know who they are. my husband is going to be voting and we had literature from keirstarmerand voting and we had literature from keir starmer and rebecca long bailey, nothing from lisa. i don't know is that it's just us or suggest a carcampaign is know is that it's just us or suggest a car

today, our political correspondent helen catt profiles the wigan mp lisa nandy. ement, we will die, and we will deserve to. i am asking you to take the brave, not the easy choice. lisa nandy‘s pitch to be labour leader is that she is different. in her words, she's someone who doesn't look or sound like anyone who's led the party before. she's certainly got a reputation for plain speaking. pay attention. that's a bit of a daft question. she's got some well—known passions. people in towns like mine have been completely ignored, and at times deeply disrespected. and some which are perhaps less well—known. have you really been to every one of britney spears' uk concerts, is this true? you can't embarrass me with this. i love her. how many have you been to? all of them! lisa nandy‘s path to parliament wasn't that unusual. she's the granddaughter of an mp and her dad, deepak nandy, was heavily involved in race relations policy. after growing up in bury nandy studied politics and then went on to work for an mp, then charities, and then as local councillor in london. afte

lisa nandy is seen as an outsider, given a 4% chance of winning. in recent tv debates. labour members have a vote. there are a lot of them now. 100,000 new members havejoined since the start of the leadership campaign. it is hard to know what that will mean for individual candidates. but the campaign goes on. this weekend there will be more events. all three of them appearing at hustings in peterborough and durham. and to be fair to them and the organisation, they have been getting around the country. the organisation, they have been getting around the countrym the organisation, they have been getting around the country. it is a busy campaign. they go around the country seeing lots of members in person at hustings events. if nothing else for whoever wins, it will be good training for a general election campaign. thank you. some of england's top rugby union clubs are backing a new scheme being rolled out to help young boys to spot the signs of mental—health problems. just yesterday, former international danny cipriani spoke about his own struggles w

sir keir starmer, lisa nandy, rebecca long—bailey and emily thornberry debated how they could reviveshire programme this morning. sir keir starmer has been criticised for pushing labour towards a remain position and costing it the votes of leave supporters. he argued that events have moved on to the next stage of the brexit process. remain v leave is over now, we've left, so to some extent, i think, for us in the labour party, we need to make sure we don't carry this divide, because it's split families, it's split our party. we have left now. we need to move on. but what we can't do now is say, brexit is over, because there's nothing johnson wants more than for us to not look at what he's doing, because he's made loads of promises about brexit that he's not going to actually deliver, so we need to focus on that. lisa nandy said the reason labour keeps losing elections is that it has stopped listening to its traditional voters. we didn't just not listen, but we're not learning. we got defeated and rejected in 2010, 2015, 2017 and 2019, and i am standing in this leadership contest beca

and because she's still a man of jo's a surprise packet in the race i can see legally potential lisa nandy. in a way that i didn't expect to you know a few months ago i can see why she is doing as well as she is she started as the least well. but has forced her much the most impressive and interesting of the campaigns to have been that unfortunate remark to catalonia because most people draw the line that successful socialists government so go back to old ladies across the head not even improbable not was here and that shows i mean she claims she was misinterpreted but i kind of read back what she said and it wasn't entirely misinterpreted and that shows i think that highlights the kind of. all useless of some of the thinking she fell into a trap and that would be a big bump because labor in some way or another has to deal with it scottish problem i don't believe you can just write off scotland if you're part of the labor party most of the time she's been rather all thora to or and this is as important give the impression of being so that brings us to rebecca alone billy that the carbonate

there is only lisa nandy, sir keir starmer, and the shadow business secretary rebecca long—bailey leftrite. mustn‘t forget, he is a man of the pretty ha rd left. forget, he is a man of the pretty hard left. he has got a pretty left—wing past. so he will appeal to a lot of the called ministers who joined the labour party. whether he is the right man to move it into an election winning position, is another thing. he says borisjohnson isa another thing. he says borisjohnson is a dangerous man so we will have five years to see how dangerous borisjohnson is before keir starmer has a chance, if he wins, to take him on. keir starmer against boris johnson, could you see him winning that battle? possibly. i don't see that battle? possibly. i don't see that keir starmer has the charisma of borisjohnson. i do think we are i'iow of borisjohnson. i do think we are now into personality politics. the labour party's now into personality politics. the labour pa rty's problem now into personality politics. the labour party's problem is they don't have somebody who has the star quality. you both being li

when you have a situation where for example lisa nandy was talking about celebrating or defending free argument that had clearly been lost in the two previous elections. if you don't actually knuckled down and do the basic work of trying to work out where it went wrong you're just of trying to work out where it went wrong you'rejust in of trying to work out where it went wrong you're just in danger of repeating the same mistakes over over again. it's interesting because if we look at the independent‘s front page they have a sort of different focus on the message from sir keir starmer and his attempt to try and win over some of the votes from the hard left. yes. it says labour needs a radical package to win elections. i think a radical idea was win some votes. that's pretty radical, they've not been very good at that over the last 15 years. there are serious issues with the party and at the moment it is not fit for purpose and not fit for government. it begs the question as to whether people vote on policies or whether sometimes they just vote on personalities. so that is a situation wh

rebecca long—bailey, lisa nandy, sir keir starmer and emily thornberry faced questions about their defeatriorities if they were leader. here's a few moments of the debate, starting with members of the audiences talking about the election. i've been labour all my life and i protect people throughout the north west and i hear the same thing, that you don't listen to them. you've got to get out of your little boxes. your manifesto was an absolute joke, an absolute disgrace. the labour party was literally built off the back of unions. how can you say it should be a centrist party. that doesn't make sense in itself. there is the sort of dilemma writ large. you have to bring those supporters, they are all labour at heart, but on different sides, really. you have to bring them together. tell them why you are the person, emily thornberry, to do that. it's going to be hard after leaving the european union, our economy is going to be challenged and we need to make sure that we make decisions together and that we are as united as we can. for there were many reasons we lost the election, it wasn'tjus
