Will there be five?

The Herald reports:

Nominations close on Tuesday and it appears increasingly likely acting David Parker will be a last-minute entrant.

A group of MPs, understood to include Kelvin Davis, have been pushing for him to put his name in although yesterday he again said his position had not changed. …

Former Labour leader David is also still considering a tilt. Yesterday he echoed concerns also expressed by Damien O'Connor that the leadership contest meant the candidates had to appeal to Labour members – but that did not necessarily translate into appealing to the wider voter base.

Little and Robertson are both on the of the party. Cunliffe in reality is more centrist but went left to gain the leadership. Therefore all three candidates are fighting in the same space.
