In a scenario where the UK Labour party was dominated by the Labour right Gaitskellite wing of the party from the late-50s to late-60s onwards (with the Bevanite, Benn and Jenkins wings becoming marginalized and pushed out), thanks to a combination of Hugh Gaitskell removing Clause IV of the Labour Constitution after the 1959 Election Loss and living long enough to become Prime Minister as well as him or his successor implementing Barbara Castle's 1969 In Place of Strife white paper.
Which ATL Gaitskellite leaning candidates could lead the Labour party from the late-60s to mid/late-90s? Have seen names like Peter Shore (who opposed Barbara Castle's white paper) and John Smith mentioned along with George Brown, Denis Healey and Anthony Crosland though not sure whether there are additional ideologically-aligned potential Labour Leader candidates that could have become Prime Minister.
