  1. "Labour has gone to great lengths to make clear that nothing substantial will change."

    "Centrist rule, typified by the incapability or unwillingness to take seriously the manifold crises humanity now faces, only increases the political dissatisfaction on which the far-right feeds. The […] Tories – or Reform itself – may well return renewed and worsened in 2029 when public frustration sees Labour’s exercise in political nothingness collapse."

    Sorry - I don't accept England is a liberal country where left of centre is usually the median position.

    #Scotland is left of centre. So is #Wales. But England is full of nostalgia for a golden age that never happened, & millions blame others for that not being the case now

    I would wish for the same end point (#PR, mostly #leftOfCentre coalitions) but can neither see the route nor the destination as acheivable.

    Meantime lets get rid of the malign #kipperTories ASAP
