According to one
Labour MP, John
Mann, Owen Smith’s leadership campaign failed largely because it “boiled down to one key message: I am not
him” (i.e. Jeremy Corbyn). Whilst I
have considerable sympathy with the idea that such a campaign message is
unlikely ever to motivate anyone, I can understand why so many in the Labour
Party would think that it was entirely suitable and adequate. I thought Mr Mann's verdict was, in context, more than a little harsh; after all, doesn’t the whole party’s key
message in election after election boil down to simply saying “We are not them” (i.e. the Tories)?
