Phillips would hurt Johnson. I wouldn’t dismiss her, c*nt that she is.

And she’d be one of the few to be able to credibly distance herself from Corbynism, having consistently criticised him and his faction over the years.

Lisa Nandy is probably the next strongest contender, but looks distinctly syndromic.

Am I right in saying Corbyn has to do PMQs tomorrow?

Boris is gonna be all magnanimous and go easy on him, isn’t he

I'm increasingly convinced they're going to make a woman leader - regardless of suitability. That raises the prospect of either Rebecca Long-Bailey and her wandering eyebrows or horse-faced, foghorn brummie media whore Jess Phillips becoming Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition.

Either would be a total fúcking disaster. Marvellous.
