Could pay for it by taking the triple lock off them and backdating the pension reductions in real terms to its introduction 2010. That’ll learn ‘em.

It's possible to over-analyse but it could be true that this was Burnhams only shot and that he shouldn't have taken it because he has two years left in Manchester.

Yea this is my political theory of a childhood Stoke on Trent on a Friday night. People want to fight and if they can’t find anyone to fight they will fight amongst themselves.

But then in the end game she wasted her vote on someone nobody else was voting for at that round table.

If they do get Rachel I think that Stephen might have done for himself there. #thetraitors

I think Roxy might still find a way to wreck it even though she's not there. #thetraitors

Then they would have gone "obviously a set up". Is there a murder tonight though? #thetraitors

I think NEC blocking him would be stupid. He'd clearly be the best possible candidate for the by-election. But hey, internal Labour Party politics can be rough as we know.

If he comes in at the next election: if Labour wins it will have moved on. If it loses he's never going to be PM anyway.

The counter is Sam's point that he will never be Prime Minister unless he moves now. I just don't have him down as a risk taker but maybe he feels force of personality will get him over the line.

That's definitely the debate they will be having now.
