Keir Starmer is today urged to transform Labour into a “ broad church ” to give the party a chance of winning the next election .
A report from the Labour History Research Unit calls on the leader not to try to ape Tony Blair or Jeremy Corbyn – and instead plot his own path .
The study comes six months after Mr Corbyn led the party to its worst defeat for 85 years – handing the Tories an 80-seat majority .
The unit , based at Anglia Ruskin University , says Mr Starmer can only return the party to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ left and centre .
“ Renewal involves restoring the idea of Labour as a broad church , ” it says .
“ The challenge for the party is enormous .
“ To win power , it needs to gain at least 123 new seats .
“ Electors in December 2019 did not believe Labour 's programme was achievable.
” An Ipsos Mori poll on Friday showed that , two months into his post , the new Labour leader is matching the performance of Mr Blair who went on to become a triple general @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1,059 adults , Mr Starmer 's net satisfaction score was 31 % – matching the best score achieved by Mr Blair in December 1994 .
The Labour History Research Unit study points to victories under Clement Attlee , Harold Wilson and Mr Blair as triumphs for common sense policies over “ ideology ” from “ left-wing intellectuals ” .
It says : “ Labour has renewed itself and won elections when electors viewed it not as a movement of ideologues but of men and women developing common-sensical and pragmatic solutions to the problems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Labour Party and labour movement more generally has been unperturbed by theory ( to the annoyance of left wing intellectuals ) .

” The Labour Renewal Project also calls on the party to once again recognise “ aspiration ” among voters – and shape policies they can identify with .
It warns that “ in a contest between a party that focuses on the creation of wealth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the former will usually win ” .
Report author Rohan McWilliam , professor of modern British history at Anglia Ruskin University , said : “ Rather than relying on the Conservatives to make mistakes , Keir Starmer can turn the party into an electable force on its own merit .
“ To do this , Labour need to look back through the party 's history to identify the moments when it has revived itself .
“ History releases us from the trap of assuming the only options for Labour are the Blair and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outliers in the story of Labour politics.
” Labour suffered its heaviest defeat since 1935 when Boris Johnson 's Tories demolished the “ Red Wall ” , crushing the party in its traditional strongholds across the North and Midlands .
But Prof McWilliam warned against copying the Conservatives in a bid to end the years in the political wilderness .
“ There is no need to adopt Conservative policies , ” he said .
“ Labour must , however , be the party that combines the promotion of aspiration with social solidarity .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ wins .
“ The report does not argue for restoring approaches that are out of date , but historical models can assist in finding a basis for social reform in the 2020s .
“ Labour history should matter in the making of modern Labour politics .

Mirror Motoring's Colin Goodwin finds the new Toyota Corolla TREK a million times more appealing than the dull Auris that went before - but hates the caps!
Toyota Corolla TREK review: Attractive and practical but no need to shout
The motor industry has a fascination with capital letters.
The proper name, for example, for Nissan’s Leaf electric car is ‘LEAF’.
I tend to ignore this infuriating shoutiness and just use a capital letter, which is what I’m going to do with this test of Toyota’s Corolla TREK Trek.
After all, the American bicycle company, with which Toyota developed the car, always spells its own name (logo apart) with just an initial capital.
The adventurous Trek is based on the Corolla Touring Sports – or estate to you and me. I suspect the bicycle firm’s only involvement probably consisted of signing a licensing agreement to allow Toyota to use the name.
After all, the Japanese firm does sponsor Trek’s bike racing teams.
The car itself didn’t need a lot of developing as the template for making an estate a bit more rugged and ‘active lifestyle’ is set in stone. Or mud, if you prefer.
For instance, Audi did the job with its All Road; Volvo with the Cross Country and Skoda with its Octavia Scout.
It’s simple: raise the suspension to increase the ride height so bits like exhausts aren’t torn off. Then add some plastic cladding around the wheelarches, faux protective plates under the front and rear bumpers, and off you go.
Which is exactly what Toyota has done with the Corolla Trek.
The suspension has been tweaked to give an extra 20mm of ride height and underbody protection is fitted.
The Trek is two-wheel drive with no off-road biased traction control system.
Neither is it fitted with anything other than standard road tyres. But to be fair to Toyota, increased ground clearance is all most customers, even the active ones, will need.

The engine connects via an electric motor through a CVT gearbox to the front wheels. CVTs can irritate when they allow revs to rise and fall, but this unit is fine.
The last Corolla estate I tested was a 1.8-litre hybrid model and I managed to get impressive fuel consumption figures from it: the WLTP fuel consumpion for that car is between 55.4mpg and 65.9mpg but I managed 67.8mpg.

What surprised me about that result is consumption didn’t fall off a cliff despite a lot of driving on motorways, where hybrids can lose their advantage.
I didn’t cover a lot of miles but an average of mid-60s mpg would be achievable.
Practical and attractive, the Corolla Trek should be as reliable as most Toyotas.
Whether it is any more appealing than the standard estate will be very much down to your taste. And lifestyle, of course.

Anti-racist protesters clashed with counter demonstrators in Newcastle, with footage emerging of bottles being thrown and pyrotechnics being let off.
Demonstrators at the Cenotaph in Bristol held up 'All Lives Matter' banners, but denied they were far-right supporters.
One sign read: "Not far right just ordinary people of all races from Bristol, Bath, Cardiff, Newport etc. United to defend the Cenotaph to defend the memory of people who died so that we are able to have the freedom to protest."
Among those gathered was a large contingent of bikers who parked their motorbikes next to the war memorial.
Tensions flared when a group of counter-protestors also congregated and began to disrupt speeches in Bolton, Greater Manchester.

Black Lives Matter demonstrators "took a knee" - a symbolic act to remember the life of George Floyd, who died in the USA when a police officer pressed a knee onto his neck for several minutes.
But they were heckled by a crowd of counter-protestors, many waving Union flags and wearing England football shirts.
Calls for equality and a better future for all during a speech were booed by counter-protesters who also chanted "white lives matter " and "all lives matter".
Chants of ‘no justice, no peace’ were met by a chorus of the national anthem and chants of "Eng-er-land" as tensions rose.
Pictures from the scene show a tense stand off as the groups came together, separated by police.

Counter-protesters can be seen giving flicking the Vs at anti-racism demonstrators.
But officers had to call for back-up as sporadic skirmishes broke out.
Tensions had been high since the march started at 1pm.
Two metre high fencing was erected around the war memorial in the town centre ahead of the demonstration to protect it from vandalism.
Groups have started to gather in Cleethorpes, Grimsby, ahead of a Black Lives Matter protest this afternoon, with around 50 people standing around the resort's war memorials.

Concerns had been raised around a planned alternative protest which was reported to have been organised for noon, which was believed to be in response to damage caused to statues and memorials at demonstrations elsewhere in the country.
A group has gathered around the RAF memorial and the Memorial Gate and was seen chanting football songs shortly before 2pm.
Hundreds of people have flocked to George Square in Glasgow to "protect" a war memorial.
In an event organised by a group called the Loyalist Defence League (LDL), people congregated to stop vandalism to the Glasgow Cenotaph, erected to commemorate the lives of those who died in the First World War.
The group was penned in on the east side of the square, with a similar sized area reserved for counter-protesters which remained empty.
Several hundred people have gathered outside City Hall in Belfast to protect war memorials.
The Northern Ireland Cenotaph Protection Group (NICPG) issued a statement saying its aim is to protect war memorials amid attacks on statues of historical figures across the UK in recent days.
A counter protest is also being held in Brighton with lines of police maintaining a divide between them and anti-racist activists.
Hundreds of protesters chanting "Black Lives Matter" are facing off against about 30 people near the memorial.
Police at the scene told PA that a gap between the two groups is being maintained to allow both to have their say.

WENGER CONCERNED ABOUT THE IMPACT BREXIT COULD HAVE ON THE PREMIER LEAGUE
With the UK on the cusp of exiting the European Union at the end of 2020, the former Arsenal boss has warned that the severe restrictions would threaten to send English football back to the 80s
Arsene Wenger has warned that Brexit could kill the Premier League and leave English football playing second fiddle to its continental rivals.
The former Arsenal manager believes that, as the UK Government continues its plans to leave the EU at the end of 2021, football in the country will suffer if imposed restrictions are too severe.
Wenger, who spent 22 years at the helm in North London, has warned that if the Premier League’s worldwide exposure is diminished in any way, then the best players will depart.
And if that happens, then the best coaches won’t be far behind.

“How will that change? That will depend now on how Brexit will be applied to football.
"I've asked many people, nobody knows. Will people inside Europe be considered as foreign players who cannot play in the English Premier League? I don't know.
“But if the rules are restrictive, they will kill the superiority of the Premier League.

Last season English clubs dominated in Europe.
Both the Champions League and Europa League finals were all-English affairs, as Liverpool faced Spurs in Madrid and Arsenal met Chelsea in Baku.
Wenger insists that English football has benefited from its balance of foreign and local talent.
But he believes that, should restrictions be pushed upon the Premier League and subsequently enforced, it could see English football fall behind its rivals, in a manner not dissimilar to that which saw our top sides playing catch-up in the early-mid 1990s, following the ban on English clubs from continental competition in the late 80s.

In recent years English football has become a destination for the planet’s best coaches, with the likes of Jose Mourinho, Antonio Conte, Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola raising the bar at their respective clubs.
Certainly, the money on offer has played its part, but Wenger insists that the main desire for the best coaches, is simply to work with the best players; provided the latter remain, so too will the former.
Asked whether foreign coaches could be put off coming to England in future, Wenger pondered: “Not if you keep the best players.
“They will want to go where the best players are. So overall, that will depend on the decisions made.
“But I believe you’re intelligent enough in England and love football enough not to destroy what is basically a diamond today.”
