Lisa Nandy is almost certain to be on the ballot for members to choose the next Labour leader. If the next Labour leader could match Mr Cameron and win an extra 97 seats, then they too could walk into No 10 with coalition partners. Party members have six weeks of auditions to sit through for the role of leader of the party. Both Ms Nandy and Ms Thornberry would provide a stiff and necessary test for the favourites. The Labour party itself needs rebuilding, in Scotland and northern England.
