No ones issue with her is her accent; she’s just very unpleasant to people, is not a team player and not that bright. Her confidence is way ahead of her ability, which to be fair is true of many politicians. But her style plays well to the somewhat inward looking and parochial guardian reading contingent in the Labour Party that either seem not to understand how to win an election, or do understand and don’t really want to. It doesn’t resonate at all with the voters. Of course that’s the voters fault..if only they realised what was best for them ;)
