Chuka Umunna
Even so, Umunna is young, smart, and not entirely visually unpleasant, even if he does look a bit like an egg with ears. His Wikipedia page even referred to him as the "British Barack Obama" (although, admittedly, that line was added by an IP address coming from his old law firm). His ideology is, in the parlance of people who haven't spoken to a real person for three decades, "modern and forward-looking": pro-business, pro-profits, and, more than anything, pro-Chuka Umunna. He's pledged to support whoever becomes leader, and has made a plea for party unity, which is all the proof you need that he's up to something backhanded. It's very possible that he's biding his time, waiting for the rest of the party to exhaust itself in internecine slap-fights until he can swoop in and claim the leadership for himself.Read: Leaving My Friend Rasool Behind and Why He Must Be Freed from Turkish Prison
