Agreed but it is important to remember the type of people who will make this decision. In the same way, we should remember the role of Momentum in getting JC into power.
Both unrepresentative cabals ..

All true, but it’s also important to remember that we don’t directly elect the executive in this country. We never have. Party leadership is a matter for party membership, which by its nature is unrepresentative. Premiership is a matter for Parliament - the Parliament we all elect. When we hold a General Election we should perhaps be more mindful of the power we are investing in the individual we elect to represent our constituency and less so of those who happen to hold ministerial positions at the time.
Perhaps the fractiousness and rebelliousness of Parliament these last few months will help re-establish that understanding.
