This could have gone into the leadership thread, and perhaps should have been (and still could be) merged. Overall though it's no biggie, really.
Given their by-election win, and the interest that has generated in the party right now, the WAP is a topical discussion point right now. In a couple weeks a new leader will be elected, we'll debate that, and then like most political topics, the discussion will fade until the next election cycle.
The irony of this is that this thread is only still on the front page because people chose to complain about it's existence. If not for that, it's already on the 2nd or 3rd page, and forgotten. A nice little small-scale example of the Streisand Effect at work.
