Next Labour Leader

With Cameron carrying out his best Michael Corleone impression and eliminating his rivals during a celebration, who will be the next Labour leader?


The early frontrunner Burnham would probably be popular with those who want a 'story' for their leader. Working class, fairly likeable, he'd solidify the heartlands but I can't see him expanding beyond them.

Personally speaking, I think Chuka would could be a risk, but probably the best candidate for Labour to win in 2020.

Cons:
He's 36, a very metropolitan, very middle class latte drinking Londoner who I can't really see relating to some greasy spoon cafe owner in Middlesborough.

Pros:
See Blair. Chuka would stand a better shot at winning the south west seats that Labour need. That is all Labour need for a majority, with their English heartlands seemingly remaining heartlands no matter what. He'd probably get almost all of London for Labour too.

I'd say that - like Miliband Jnr - Chuka would win the party but lose the unions, with Burham doing well enough in both to scoop the prize (Unless this system has changed now).
