Angela Eagle drops out of Labour leadership contest

[QUOTE]Angela Eagle has pulled out of the Labour leadership race and thrown her support behind Owen Smith in his challenge to Jeremy Corbyn.
The ex-shadow business secretary said she was dropping out "in the interests of the party" and would back Mr Smith "with all her might and enthusiasm".
It came as Mr Smith won the backing of more MPs in the process of selecting a single candidate to take on Mr Corbyn.
Mr Corbyn says he will win despite losing the support of most of his MPs.[/QUOTE]

Well that's unexpected.
To be honest I see this as a good thing for Labour, she was a terrible candidate.
oh well, corbyn is still backed by the membership so nothing will change regardless.
The Eagle has crash landed
