Now just as I was about to tap and pay for the goods it happened yes the Christmas music started playing stop the cavalry. There was simply no escape as I had to pay for the goods.

Because I'm breakfast 0801 c 1881 channel 3 and start your message with the word Stoke getting on social media b.b.c. Radio Stoke. We brought you the news on Friday morning for the for the 1st time ever North Star gone blue after the general election and now this morning we know that Boris Johnson is welcoming 109 new M.P.'s to Westminster their 1st job will be voting on the BRICs it withdrawal agreement Bill here's what happened last week. Boris Johnson is beginning a new term as prime minister after his conservative party won a majority of 80 seats everyone to find closure and to let the healing begin the Labor Party lost 59 seats across the country it's later Jeremy Corbyn says he'll be stepping down early next year I think the responsible thing to do is not to walk away from the whole thing and I won't do that I will stay here until somebody elected to succeed me and then I will step down at that point in Stoke north it's former Labor m.p. Ruth's mate says she won't walk away I think she has huge challenges and collectively we need to decide whether we have the right to exist or not for me I will stay in fights the Tory m.p. For Stoke South Jack Britain increased his majority tenfold I think organ had a huge impact. He was absolutely toxic on the doorstep but the Labor Party's candidate for that constituency Mark MacDonald has no regrets over his leader I think history will go I will see German court reporter who was an inspirational leader the new Tory m.p. For Stoke central Joe Gideon pits labor by just 670 votes it was a long journey for people to go on from and most people would say I've lifelong Labor supporter you know my parents are Labor supporters. Jack Dowling there the conservatives have a clean sweep in the pottery state north central south and New Castle in Cheshire to people in Crewe and Nantwich dropped labor for the Tories the question I'm asking you this morning and maybe you have some thoughts on this is what's next for labor now you know we do Job Watch here on b.b.c. Radio telling you about work that could be available to you if you're out of work in the area well producer Jack has had a go at one himself. B.b.c. Radio Stoke job watch the Labor Party is making for a new leader you'll be working at their site in Westminster you must be good at working in a small a team shouting skills a strong opinion on breaks it and an intimate knowledge of the Christmas Day t.v. Show are essential you must have an empty cause it's an familiarity with bacon sandwiches the salary begins at $79.00 grand depending on experience to find out how to apply or tell John whether you're getting. Pulled over 800. 8080 making a difference in Staffordshire and Cheshire b.b.c. Radio Stoke is never right don't call in about we can't help you with the job b.b.c. Impartiality and all that however back to reality what has happened to labor or b.b.c. Radio. Has spoken to people in Stoke on Trent about what they think of the Labor Party. Strong awful labor all its life and that's totally to be wiped out but I think the biggest problem was a lot of majority the people didn't like it was a labor it was called being. And I think a bit of a shame to be very much labor heartlands he would Stoke on Trent now it's completely what you think went wrong for the Labor Party down so I guess it's one stance and Bracks. Myself being a mono. I don't I I didn't see Brett says the main issue of previous version of. The policies and it's not just this year that you've decided yes and used to be labor but I didn't. If you were the sum changed why do you think Labor suffered so badly it really is a catastrophic loss for the Labor Party are to not being. The unity. In the Labor Party they were all over decrease because of their background as well didn't help much and he was a lady sure about the bricks it was going to do. I think he was bad for the Labor Government I think he did 2 big mistakes us being the head of the Labor Government and the other one to start sporting back seats I think the people of Stoke on Trent even if he spoke it out you know enough so you know for got to get back seat don't think that's what's on the boat listening to all the talk to Gemma looms politics expert kill University morning Gemma morning what do you think is next for the Labor Party now that the dust has settled just how bad was it for labor and what do they do next. It is a pretty catastrophic loss for the light of policy in the problem for the Labor Party is as we had quite a lot of the M.P.'s say the weekend done and the defeated and pays site it's not just a problem replacing the leader but problems within the Labor Party run much deeper inside the Labor Party really needs to undertake a review of what it actually stands for now so it needs to work out whether it wants to actually carry on top of the thing areas like ours where we're actually still sees itself as a party the working class because at the moment it's very much they need a policy based in the big cities in the metropolitan areas in London in particular and whether it actually wants to govern because the manifesto this time around was same very much as having very strong Leslie socialist policies but were necessarily a very cohesive. Program to government so the Labor Party really needs to reflect on what it stands for what it sees cost of protests and oversee the leadership will be important as well who is most likely to be that next leader what kind of pull do you see them choosing someone from. Interesting way most of the men come to the same aisle so it's their least the next major like policy will be favorable to the Brits probably some a lot Rebecca long Bailey because for many years now we've heard she's someone that Jeremy Corbin trusted she was member the From bench she was the shuttle business secretary so she's got quite good credentials and she comes most importantly from the right from that correct wing of the party not the right wing of the party from the left wing of the policy that she comes from the part that say me we'll start with I'm wing of the party's chairman Bogan but it's likely that she will probably be popular with parliamentary Labor Party and more importantly with the party members because they're the ones that are going to make the final decision on who the next leader is when you speak to a lot of the public didn't like some of the very left wing policies of labor and they weren't keen on Jeremy Colvin So isn't it a bit of a gamble to choose someone with a similar view to Jeremy Koeppen shouldn't they be trying to pick someone from more from the center. For electoral reasons yes they absolutely should but the problem for the Labor Party at the moment is the way that they're organized that the membership have such power and it's the members that will ultimately decide who the leader is as the members you started that Jeremy call been was to be the leader he wasn't particularly agricultural or with the parliamentary Labor Party with those M.P.'s in Parliament but he was incredibly popular with the membership so because the membership really has all the power in terms of deciding who the next Labor leader is it's fairly certain that with a similar membership pattern that we've had over the last t.v. Is it's going to be someone with the same ideological ideological perspective as Jeremy Colvin is going to be chosen as the next leader and how likely do you think is the labor will be able to get themselves into power in 5 years I know a lot of water is going to pass under the bridge between now and then but at the moment it seems a long way off. The problem is that 5 years is very very ambitious the size of the state was so great that it will take a swing of around the same size as Labor had in 9097 to return to 5 years' time so really it's got to be a long term plan of maybe looking at 10 years time before the party can return to government and the process of choosing this leader will be important but really we're looking at the leader also with to potentially take the party towards the more center left so it's going to be a very very long process there are no short term solutions to this always interesting to talk to you thanks so much Dr Gemma looms politics expert that kill university maybe you were someone who switched from the conservatives to labor maybe your one of those Labor members who voted for Jeremy Corbin and will vote for someone with similar policies as Jeremy Corbyn to be the next leader you can get in touch with the show whenever you like our 801-2180 or text me one trouble 3 Start your message with the word stuck.

Inside of the pages of the newspapers this morning there's a story about selfies and how they can do you real damage Jenny I can is producing the show this morning hi Jan Hello is this I mean this affected you apparently carpal tunnel syndrome one doctor is claiming here that there's been a 3rd. 30 to 40 percent increase in cases that he is seeing because of the angle of the wrist when you're taking a selfie with a big smartphone Love Yeah specially the really big ones that are almost like tablets that you've got there is Nick thank you so so yeah I think if you've got a lot to lose now you've got selfie sticks and selfie Yeah plonk things in all sorts of contraptions to take a selfie it's going to take me one of my not yet Ok so I have got the camera Yeah I think this is already good in there. So that my wrist that is quite an angle is there so if I just kind of tweak it a little bit. It's a duty as he really did that we did just take a selfie down as well as high as. Put them on social media and tell them I don't know I have a bad rest actually my right wrist year so maybe that is it that's what I'll blame it on. Jay we're not going to get a white Christmas I know that's why you've made me say I know I know I know but there's an article in the paper this morning all the meteorology people have been looking at all the data for 9 days time that's all it is 9 days.

Myself being a homeowner. I don't I don't see breaks as the main issue we've both labor so I go because the policies and it's not just this year that you decided yes and used to be labor but I didn't. If you were some change why do you think Labor suffered so badly it really is a catastrophic loss for the Labor Party are to not being. The unity. In the Labor Party they will all be different because a bit of the background as well didn't help much and he was a lady sure about the bricks it was going to do.

Once Tory what do you think they beneath to do next what kind of leader the thing you need well. We both agree in some degree that we need. That water is not left wing We don't want to Jericho being too. We need somebody who's centrist labor at least central maybe Center has somebody like Johnny Law. Who feel like was. It was more sense oh yeah last left wing and so on the trouble with that is you know that a lot of your fellow members of the Labor Party you want to vote someone in who does lean more heavily to the left yes not so all of those I mean I'm been a member for the spot 50 years and there are a lot of people well when I go to meetings if you like the people in New Castle and it's probably $6040.00 for the eligible guys if you like so there's a lot of those Laborites were around during generally a successful government. Of the ninety's. The support that. Yes you're quite right there are a lot of the younger members on so much know some of the younger members of course on more left wing.
