Andy Burnham has topped the LabourList shadow cabinet rankings for the fifth succesive poll in a row. Below him there has been some limited movement in the top ten – although membership of that hallowed group appears to be fairly fixed.
This month’s biggest mover is Mary Creagh – who moves up three places – whilst Jim Murphy, Caroline Flint and Stephen Twigg have all dropped two places this month. Yet overall there has been little movement at either end of the table – both top and bottom seem fairly secure, and lower mid-table seems to be where the real action is. Here’s the table:
1 | Andy Burnham | (-) |
2 | Yvette Cooper | (-) |
3 | Chuka Umunna | (Up 1) |
4 | Ed Balls | (Down 1) |
5 | Jon Cruddas | (-) |
6 | Hilary Benn | (Up 1) |
7 | Tom Watson | (Down 1) |
8 | Rachel Reeves | (-) |
9 | Douglas Alexander | (-) |
10 | Harriet Harman | (-) |
11 | Angela Eagle | (Up 2) |
12 | Sadiq Khan | (-) |
13 | Jim Murphy | (Down 2) |
14 | Emily Thornberry | (-) |
15 | Maria Eagle | (-) |
16 | Tessa Jowell | (Up 1) |
17 | Liz Kendall | (Down 1) |
18 | Mary Creagh | (Up 3) |
19 | Vernon Coaker | (Down 1) |
20 | Owen Smith | (Up 2) |
