He has been making moves to introduce some patriotic aspects to his campaigning even with things like ensuring there are more union jacks in their videos and party materials.

It's going to take a while but he may be able to correct the image somewhat for whoever takes over. Besides you can cloak an argument for change in patriotic terms. NHS = British institution. Renationalising Rail? Making the network British again. Higher taxes on multinational companies? Protecting British companies.
I can’t see Sir Kier himself ever making Prime Minister. His views don’t align with what Labour voters think and want and he is bland and uninteresting. I hope he leads Labour for many decades to come.
