Shadow cabinet rankings – October 2011

After introducing our shadow cabinet rankings at conference, we’ve decided to continue posting them each month to show which members of the shadow cabinet are most popular with party members. There’s also an extra element of interest this month, as the list includes several new members of the shadow cabinet. And don’t forget to check back tomorrow, when we’ll be revealing your “MP of the month”.

The rankings are as follows:

1. Andy Burnham
2. Tom Watson
3. Yvette Cooper
4. Ed Balls
5. Hilary Benn
6. Rachel Reeves
7. Jim Murphy
8. Chuka Umunna
9. Douglas Alexander
10. Harriet Harman
11. Angela Eagle
12. Sadiq Khan
13. Peter Hain
14. Emily Thornberry
15. Maria Eagle
16. Liz Kendall
17. Caroline Flint
18. Vernon Coaker
19. Margaret Curran
20. Michael Dugher
21. Mary Creagh
22. Tessa Jowell
23. Liam Byrne
24. Jon Trickett
25. Rosie Winterton
26. Stephen Twigg
27. Ivan Lewis

Shadow cabinet rankings are developed by subtracting the “negative” rating from the “positive” rating for each shadow cabinet member in our monthly survey. “Don’t know” or “Undecided” responses are discarded. You can see more results from October’s survey here.
