Why is it different, this time? There are places to go to:
@WorkersPartyGB - @georgegalloway 's Party
@Socialist_party - ex Militant
@CPBritain - my own destination

& even: #ForwardMomentum , "post Lansman", perhaps ...

These are the activists around us, many known to one another. What we don't yet know, is what is happening to the "sleepers". But the polls tell a woeful story. These are people who may only make a decision, when their bank reminds them.

Labour leadership in big trouble. (4/4)
