    Really dislike "the wrong brother" trope because Ed wasn't and still isn't the wrong brother for the Labour Party. Have met Tory voters who have repeated that and maybe David Milliband would have gained some Tory voters at the expense of losing some Labour voters.

    Regarding Lisa Nandy removing social media from her phone, I stopped following her when she didn't reply to A.C. Grayling's open letter on her sell out informed referendum position.

    Yes Ed ... " The perception of leadership on the doorstep was very bad " . You may find that when you have one decent man fighting for proper rights for working AND disadvantaged people it helps if you all ( and I mean ALL of the shadow cabinet ) put their full weight of support behind the democratically elected leader . Their was absolutely no question that Corbyn was stabbed in the back by his own party . Thanks to THEM we have had to endure attacks on everything that unions throughout the country had fought for over generations , pay .. terms and conditions ..workers rights .. The Labour party at that time were absolutely complicit in everything that is happening now . How do you all sleep at night ? For what it's worth , I am a TRUE Labour supporter .. always have been , and always will .

It is very sad that you still can't accept that Corbyn was utterly toxic to the majority of Labour voters. He also had absolutly no idea how to lead, a combination that was guaranteed to loose.

    Much as I enjoy this interview, as a fan of both James and Ed, James: please, ast some point, you have to start raising the point of the illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank, the settler violence and killings, the repeated IDF slaughters? You spend a lot of time talking about really important stuff, almost always offering really important moral and decent thoughts on anything from these horrific migrant barges to Brexit, anti-welfare rhetoric and racism. But Israel keeps slaughtering Palestinians and I can't see anyone else other than you having any chance of raising this on any national radio broadcaster.
