• ALT2: ... that some Far Left members of the UK Labour Party called a 1988 challenge for party leadership "a waste of time"? Yoninah (talk) 18:55, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

• I'm happy with that - just need a reviewer to go over the article. Miyagawa (talk) 16:57, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

• Quality refs but behind pay walls. Well cited including hook facts. No image. Lengths OK, no pov, no paraphrasing spotted (paywalls). Alt1 is very timely as the labour party in the uk may well be moving to the left again (my pov). Victuallers (talk) 13:40, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
