6% Len says catastrophic result would be a "successful campaign"
A bit like when he won with 59k votes from Unite membership of 1.4 million teapaw.org/tommctague/status/8645…
EXC: McCluskey sets bar at 200 seats for Corbyn – a "successful campaign." Adds: "I don't see Lab winning" politico.eu/article/len-mccl…
Communist Party of Britain candidates all made it into 3 figures at last election, so Murray is well qualified to run Labour's campaign.
Because nothing says 'credible alternative government' like appointing a Stalinist to run your campaign... teapaw.org/paulwaugh/status/86386…

This is a devastating result. Huge effort needed on the doorstep over the next few weeks to elect some great West Midlands Labour MPs. teapaw.org/rcox_star/status/86052…
BREAKING - #Wmmayor overall results - Sion Simon (lab) 234862 / Andy Street (con) 238628 . Andy Street is Mayor of the West Midlands.
John McDonnell on @BBCNews says it was always going to be close in West Midlands - but it wasn't in 2015:

Tees Valley mayoral area votes in 2015 (source: centreforcities.org/tees-val…).
Labour had a 13.4% lead.
The Tories have won it.
Lib Dem West Mids candidate says she'd prob have given Greens 2nd pref, not Sion Simon (she wasn't eligible to vote). #progressivealliance
If you're spinning bad results, always worth finding out how bad they are before starting the excuses. teapaw.org/itnsourcenews/status/8…
Shadow home secretary @HackneyAbbott with yet another numbers #gaffe after she massively underestimates @labour's local elections losses.
Former mining areas swinging heavily to the Tories. teapaw.org/bbclaurak/status/86046…
Agreed. Terrible results. Leadership must take responsibility & work out a plan. Rest of us need to hit the doorsteps and do what we can. teapaw.org/owenjones84/status/860…
Anti-SNP vote is switching to the Tories - even in most deprived areas of Scotland. teapaw.org/mike_blackley/status/8…
Only works as an excuse if contact rate lower than last time seats were held. If so - how is that possible with Corbyn's membership surge? teapaw.org/paulwaugh/status/86044…

Always someone else's fault, isn't it? Trying to blame your failings on the people Labour needs to knock doors for next 5 weeks is not smart
Corbyn allies must speak up now, acknowledge disastrous results & explain the plan to avoid landslide in June. teapaw.org/rosskempsell/status/86…
Media will be the same in 5 weeks, John. We urgently need to hear your plan to avoid a Labour wipeout on June 8. teapaw.org/mirrorpolitics/status/…
John McDonnell insists Labour #LE2017 result isn't the 'wipeout' some predicted - and blames 'unbalanced' media mirror.co.uk/news/politics/l…
How can you tell Unite's leadership contest is over? Because 6% Len is meddling again:
