So that's Owen J, AAV and Rachel S all trashed in a couple of pages. Are there any left wing commentators you don't dismiss as terrible?

It's nothing like as calculated as that. It's more because... i.e. they basically feel the same way.

At this stage I'd probably just reply: "You're an idiot".

I'd say that the left didn't work for "other reasons", not because it was left. A lot of people voted for Starmer in the hope that he would eliminate those "other reasons". Instead, he's just tried to eliminate the left.
