he will refuse to go - at least until they've had a try at changing the leadership election rules in september. he will spend the summer hanging on and claiming that it was all the fault of the press / the establishment / the voters. |  |
| And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show |

the sticking point is probably that whoever leaves can't use the official name anymore.
A bit like when Bucks Fizz split. | |

The Real Labour Party
New New Labour?
Hard Labour? |  |

A lot of the labour MPs seem to attach themselves to the party simply to get into parliament as Labour have a lot of safe seats.
When you hear their policies they sound a lot more like Lib Dems or centrist tories than they do socialists.
Take a look at Liz Kendall's manifesto for labour leader if you don't believe me.
