AS it seems to me, a furious economic debate has broken out in the annual Labour leadership contest; the two candidates Jeremy Corbyn and Owen Smith are trying to prove who is the most left wing, its like arguing whether Venezuela or Cuba offers the best alternative economic model for the UK.
Woeful does not begin to describe this level of debate. Nationally the Labour Party has lost the plot and is only being taken seriously out of politeness and in the hope that one day they find their way back to the real world.
