Chuka Umunna: I intend to play the fullest part I can
In an interview with the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔβs Andrew Marr, the Shadow Business Secretary Chuka Umunna praised Ed Miliband for reforming the party and leading a courageous election campaign.
But Mr Milibandβs resignation has seen bookies turn their attention on to his successor.
Although Mr Umunna did not say he would be putting himself forward for the leadership contest, he stated that he intended to play the fullest part he could in rebuilding our party and "ensuring we have a proper debate.β
He described the partyβs loss as a βcollective failureβ but pointed in particular to the lack of clarity around Labourβs policies around business. βOur business agenda was pro-business,β he said, βbut people were under the impression that it wasnβt.β
