Anatomy of what a Labour heartland now looks like: Lambeth & Southwark. Landslide for @SadiqKhan with huge 2nd prefs for @sianberry - and Greens second in member election... 
... people queued into the distance to deliver this message: any backsliding from Labour and the Greens are the alternative ... and it's not a one-off. See Sheff Hillsboro...
Lesson: Labour has to first and foremost represent the people who vote for it... yes, to gain power, it must draw others into its coalition but the base of the coalition is restive....
In case you think this is airy fairy London, we're talking about some of the biggest council estates in Europe... plus packed private rental blocks ... and it's a Red-Green heartland.
