Left-wingers loyal to Jeremy Corbyn would begin to circle if Labour lost Hartlepool

Defeat would heap massive pressure on leader Sir Keir Starmer as left-wingers loyal to Jeremy Corbyn start to circle.

A Good Morning Britain survey gives the Tories a huge 17-point lead in the “Red Wall” Hartlepool vote.

The North East seat has been Red for nearly 50 years but backed Brexit.

A poll also puts the Tory mayoral candidate 17 points up on Labour in the West Midlands.

Amid fears of a poll bloodbath, even Sir Keir admitted he had “a mountain to climb”.

But he tried to pin the blame for the party’s poor ratings on his predecessor Mr Corbyn.

The leader, who tried out infrared binoculars yesterday at a tech firm in St Asaph, North Wales, vowed to take responsibility, but he insisted “no one could expect” he would turn the party around in a year.

Seeming to fear the worst, he said: “I hope we won’t lose Hartlepool. We are fighting for every vote.

But I don’t think anybody realistically thought it was possible to turn the Labour Party round from the worst General Election result since 1935 to a position to win the next General Election within one year.

“It was always going to take longer than that.”
