THREAD: Labour Election Review…. 1/ It’s thorough and I broadly agree with its conclusion: unpopular leadership, poor leadership + an incoherent Brexit position stopped Labour adapting to rise of “values voting”… Did anyone on the left flag this up?👇

2/ Labour May Euro-election fiasco was written off/ignored by the leadership, yet as the report states it was a rehearsal for December 2019:
3/ The report also reveals a catalogue of errors in the party's functioning and election planning. That's a problem of political leadership, not staff at HQ. All of the highlighted problems were raised, but ignored...
4/ Those of us who advocated Remain/PV knew it would be unpopular with Leave voters. We offered Norway+ instead but that was refused in favour of PV with no position on the outcome. The results? 👇
5/ Let's be clear what the report does: it blows out of the water the "Starmer/Remainers betrayed Brexit" narrative and places the responsibility squarely on the shoulders of Corbyn's inner team, some TULO general secretaries and senior officials at HQ.
