I once fought a council seat here: Nethermayne in 2007. I
have helped out in many elections, both for council seats as well as
Parliamentary contests.
So, to the Council offices in the town centre - Owen
Smith was in town. Owen, who I hope will
be leading the party soon.
I am not sure what I expected. I was pleasantly surprised
by the turnout. My guess (which is often a shaky estimation) put the audience
at around 120. I certainly saw many familiar faces.
Owen was impressive, and whatever the outcome of the
leadership contest he certainly looks to have a bright future.

Owen enthrals the audience |
This suggests that those who know what it takes to
actually win elections are backing Owen. Will it take a succession of defeats before
Jeremy's fan club realise what his leadership means for Labour?

Julian, your expression "Jeremy's fan club" indicates just how little you understand the problem that the Labour Party has at the moment.
