Nandy's obviously vying for the Murdoch support after claiming things like nationalised Public Utilities & free education are unaffordable and lying that Labour "didn't have a clue how to cost them"
I'm guessing she didn't actually read the last manifesto then?
She also claims "tough decisions have to be made", what she's actually talking about is the Ed Balls school of economics of being austerity-lite and not bothering to chase up the tax-evaders and wealth extractors to woo Murdoch.
She may not be quite as thick as Jess Phillips, but Nandy is still pretty dense, how she's managed to garner the support she has completely eludes me.

Transphobia is a real thing which has gradually taken root amongst some of the grass roots, particularly the women's/gay rights groups which seem to have been gradually infiltrated by extreme right wingers and some nasty intolerant bigoted bullshit.
In fact I would say it is far worse than the supposed anti-semitism the media claim is afflicting the Labour Party.
Basically the Labour Party should champion ALL human rights irrespective of gender, race or religion and that includes those who have transgendered despite what some ridiculously hysterical and idiotically bigoted femi-nazi's claim.
