Estimatd #Lab21 CLP faction wash-up frm NCC/card votes: @labtowin 47% (+26%) @PeoplesMomentum/@CLPD_Labour 35% (-27%), Ind Left/Soft Left/Oth 18% (+1%) - no clear @OpenLabour vote in that. Overall Left vote down frm 70% to 49% in NCC vote. Swing 26.5% to @labtowin since last conf
Just 2 add single parl candidate election card vote leadrship lost at #lab21 looks like a 1-off outlier 2 a pretty consistnt othr set of results. Howevr if u adjustd all oth result 4 that the result wd b @labtowin 39%, @PeoplesMomentum/@CLPD_Labour 35%, Ind Left/Soft Left/Oth 26%
For comparison with #Lab21 the #Lab19 CLP vote breakdown was as follows:
@AaronBastani@Keir_Starmer I can't see him beating a range of strong women candidates next time. Not even sure he will do that well in any new PLP 3rd of the vote ballot as a lot of past Tweets will come back to haunt him. Looks like a 10-20% candidate so far. Surely more hoping for a Deputy opportunity?
@AaronBastani@Keir_Starmer What every1 (esp Lord Mandelson) is not realising is opening a ballot to 2m levy payers with a likely 8% t/o (ie 160k) is in the self-organising social media age it will see up to 20k to 80k angry ex-members signing up via TUs (mainly Unite) & voting "against" candidates.
@AaronBastani@Keir_Starmer Whereas in 2020 dynamic was mainly pro-EU membs joining Party 2 vote, we can see frm the as expected poor Coyne 3rd place that there is no motivation on that side anymore & it will b replacd by a 50k+ bloc in a 160k voting section looking 2 use its vote effectively against people
It is quite remarkable to watch over 41 years how OMOV has gone frm a demand of the Campaign for Labour Victory (CLV) which ended up in the SDP to then migrate across the Party spectrum to now a likely long-term demand of the other wing now
OMOV was in the past seen as a party reform tool by Leaderships. Now it is clearly a more insurgent policy position, but all experience shows it tends to win in the long-term as that is what a membership left or right now expects for its payment
This is significant as in 90's recruiting a large more extrinsically values instrumental big membership was seen as a good thing by Leadership. Now membership composition is much more post-materialist expressive & consequently framing of it looks to return to view in 50's & 60's
@davidjrosenberg When it comes to multiple elections, loads of voters may not vote in one or other election. 4 example young membs might choose to only vote in the YL election to support a cand they know. In 2020 by-elections 96k voted in the leadership but not in the NEC elections
@LabourList@MattWrack@ForwardMmtm This poses big question of wd @Open_Selection have won at 2018 conf. Looking at CV8 there was a pretty solid 45% in favour of compromise with definite 35% which wanted OS. In effect it was down to @UnitePolitics 20% to decide. However the reasons for their vote r not covered here
