Why on earth is Tom Watson's price moving in for the labour leadership ?
If Corbyn resigns, he is the next leader of the party, in technical terms. Not sure if that counts.
Being the acting Leader is quite a headstart.
Tell that to Sir Menzies Campbell. Or George Brown. Or Rab Butler.
BF is permanent leader market.
Watson price coming in because he will probably stand now and so there's the well you never know factor. Long-Bailey not ready yet. May be a three way race with Emily Thornberry and Williamson.
Pidcock is always mentioned on here as the anointed successor. However, she would be utter electoral poison so it’s not happening.
Thornberry is surely a shoo-in when she wants it.
Keep an eye on Raynor.
Rayner has demonstrated zero leadership potential thus far. Rightly or wrongly she is known for having given birth at an early age and being a very young grandmother. She has made no political impact.

Raynor’s the one who thought vegetarians could eat fish. She’s not the brightest star in the firmament.

I gather from one of the political mags that she has, though, been out and about at local labour meetings across the country as much as Emily Thornberry.
You’re referring there to what (at least non-vocational) degrees used to be - an exercise in thinking and knowing what questions to ask. My impression is that many degrees are now “taught” to a far greater extent than they were and they are increasingly an extension of A Levels (that is that there’s an expectation that somebody will give you the framework). I’ve only slightly used my degrees in the subject they were in but what they did do was make me learn how to swiftly assimilate, search and analyse information. Then present in a coherent way in my own voice.
It has perhaps changed but most arts/social science lectures were useless. I certainly didn’t go to one.
If it's not a silly (and fairly obvious) question; how do you know if you never went to one?

I’d love to see a United Ireland caused by Brexit , it would be exactly what the DUP deserve for backing Leave .
Knowing the problems it would cause , it’s unforgivable they chose to play fast and loose with the peace process .
