One attendee suggested the Right are intentionally refusing to to field a leadership challenger against Jeremy Corbyn in order to drag out the manufactured leadership crisis interminably. It then becomes a war of attrition designed to take its toll on Jeremy's reputation as leader.
In discussions afterwards, we came up with the following way of handling this:
The Corbyn camp could trigger an immediate Leadership Election by putting forward their own challenger - John McDonnell. This will force the Blairites to scramble for a candidate, and JC supporters can be guaranteed of having either Corbyn or McDonnell as leader by using their first two preferences to vote for them.
This would allow us get this manufactured leadership crisis out of the way quickly, in time to challenge whoever the Tories choose in October.
