Interesting thread by Paul Mason. But...
To win power Labour needs at the very least some form of pre-GE pact with the LD. Without this, the very best case scenario imv is a hung Parliament & Labour+LD (even adding a few Green seats) are unlikely to be enough
for a majority in HoC. Post GE, LD's price to cooperation will be PR.But Labour will insist on a referendum as it won't have PR in its manifesto (at best a vague comittment to a review as an olive branch to members'anger). A referendum will take a long time to set up
My hot take for who the #caretakerprimeminister should be: @theresa_may
... Bear with me.

@theresa_may Reason 1/5: She won't want it. That makes her perfect. Been there, done that, hated it. No chance of her trying to make a power grab. Keeps things neutral for the election.
@theresa_may Reason 2/5: No-one will want her to do it. She is universally hated We're never going to find someone everyone wants; why not someone no-one wants? Equality, innit?
