The runners and riders in the race to replace Jeremy Corbyn as Labour leader
as Labour Party leader after a historic defeat for his party in the United Kingdom's general election in December.
The leadership race is likely to be bitterly fought between candidates from Corbyn's wing of the party and those on Labour's "soft left".Keir Starmer and Jeremy CorbynThe Shadow Brexit Secretary is a rare beast within the Labour Party in that he has maintained the respect of both Corbyn's supporters as well as his critics.
The Shadow Business Secretary is in a good position to be the left's candidate, but is by no means assured of taking that position. she has not made a formal decision whether to run for the leadership yet, but that discussions are currently focused on securing the deputy role instead.Like Thornberry, shadow Treasury minister Lewis has confirmed he will enter the leadership race, with a pitch to give party members an even greater say in policy and the selection of MPs.
His pitch places him firmly to the left of his potential leadership rivals, which could prove popular given that many Labour members signed up after Jeremy Corbyn took over the party. She is something of a polarising figure for the party membership, and would probably struggle to gain the sort of support she would need to become a viable candidate.Lisa Nandy, the MP for Wigan, has confirmed she is "seriously considering" running for the leadership. She said she could bridge the divide between Labour's traditional heartlands, many of which were lost to the Conservatives, and its remaining strongholds in metropolitan areas.
