As of 12:30 update today:
Diane Abbott - 0 (no change) - will anyone nominate Diane or are they waiting for Harriet Harman to pluck up the courage to stand instead?
Ed Balls - 15 (up 1) - slowly but surely Ed? Well, slowly anyway.
Andy Burnham - 10 (up 2)
John McDonnell - 0 (no change) - Still not looking good for poor John
David Miliband - 48 (up 11) - overtaking his younger, smugger, brother
Ed Miliband - 41 (no change)
So who has plumped for Ed Balls today?
John Healey - Gordon Brown's PPS 1999-2001, more recently Financial Secretary to the Treasury and latterly Minister of State for Housing. Beat Yvette Cooper to the candidacy for his constituency in 1997
So that's yet another former member of the Gordon Brown team backing Balls. Is that Ed Balls' USP in this election, a continuation of the policies and personnel of the ever so successful Gordon Brown premiership? That seems like a sure-fire winner.
Will Diane Abbott and John McDonnell get any nominations? Will they even nominate themselves although if that is their only nomination it will look a bit sad.
