Progress have invited several MPs and Progress supporters to list their favourites - what are yours?

I don't often read Progress but every now and again they have a really interesting interview.  Jennifer Gerber and Mark Day's interview of Jon Cruddas is one of them. In it Cruddas calls for:

1. A systematic overhaul of the party
   
2. More effort in identifying and addressing issues over for the next ten years not the last  
   
3. Replacing the unelected party chair position with the elected Deputy Leader's post
   
4. Recognition of the integrity of people working at Number 10
   
5. Tackling insecurities and the rise of the BNP
   
6. Re-building a deep and wide coalition that goes beyond key marginal seats
   
7. Brown to outline what he would do as leader
