The futures of the Labour leader and his campaign co-ordinator have been inextricably linked since the moment the Wolverhampton South East MP accepted the job.
The pair speak "pretty much every day" and tackled the party's election strategy, manifesto and direction together and pulled off one of the biggest landslides ever.
