Is that happening anywhere in the world?
Workers parties seem more interested in running to the left and fighting socialist and environmentalist groups for their ground.
Miliband tacked centre but was still depicted as an extremist. Australian Labor is staying the course as a centrist party and it’s not changed their fortunes (nor has it stopped people saying they’ve gone extreme left).
If the British people had been demanding centrism, there was a Liberal Democrat option right there. People didn’t jump to it.
Labour’s share of the vote was still better than it had been in 2010 and 2015, but the Conservative share was its highest since 1979. People don’t want wishy washy half arsedness anymore, as much as the liberal technocrats wish it was so.

surely you need to run a surplus to cause "austerity" otherwise the country is living beyond its means
Britain proved austerity is a self fulfilling continuum
lol. Budget deficit got cut from 10% to under 2% of gdp whilst increasing employment to record numbers. Suire they should have been far more aggressive in cutting spending but they were hardly "abysmal".
As for most of the world having moved on from the GFC thats laughable. Only a few days ago Bernanke was talking of negative interest rates.
He was a shocking failure in many areas eg immigration, Europe, education, civil liberties etc.
His success was that despite being labour he didnt dramatically increase taxes.
Was it one in ten shops boarded up or one in five. I can’t recall
should be renamed poundland
Amazon etc killing retail is hardly unique to the UK. Large proportion of Chapel St was for let last time I was in Melbourne.
UK employment at highest since 1971
A new record number of 32.7 million people were in work between November and January in the UK.

The number of employed people in the UK has risen again, to a new record number of 32.7 million people between November and January, figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show.
The 76.1% employment rate is the highest since records began in 1971.
Unemployment fell by 35,000 to 1.34 million in the period, putting the rate below 4% for the first time since 1975.

‘if shopping strips etc are so terminal. Perhaps the uk should be redeveloping them into residential instead of grabbing every last field they can cram houses into
They are. Three large hardware stores near me are all getting developed in to flats. Building on greenfield land in the UK is rather hard.

Long Bailey been caught out twice over her background lately. Blatantly lied about who she worked for and how long.
Rayner can barely put a sentence together.

Why does the left legitimately like using lies as their main reason for losing elections? The real lie is them using lies as their excuse.Monbiot on the oligarchs destroying democracy.

Bit embarrassing for Britain’s education system then. Most educated electoral cohort in history yet less able to elect a Labour government than those with high school education who voted for Clement Attlee in 1945 while wartime propaganda was raging.
It's not like we're any better.
