If Labour moves further the left to "give us what we want" then it losses middle England and does not get elected giving power to the Tories, something I really dont want. If after two Tory govs, people cant see how NL really is a much lesser of two evils I dont know what to say.
The whole point, as I have stated several times, which you are ignoring, is that the left should be focussing on moving middle england and other cohorts to the left, there is massive opportunity for this now and will only increase going forward, at present they seem to be failing hard.
Therefore there should be a two prong strategy, electable damage limitation centre left Not the Tories parliamentary party + agit prop to win more of the national conversation to make a more leftist government electable in the future.
