not make that particular criticism about the labour party — certainly they were making it when jeremy corbyny, i don't think anyone ever accused him of not being passionate about his politics. the british public didn't want him to be the leader of their country, either. the labour party has got to find a way that it can not isolate people but also speak very passionately and to be honest i don't think it's that complicated. the labour party is for progress. it's as simple as that. the conservative party is they are to conserve things the way they are, the power structures, for the people, as they currently exist. the labour party has got to be about the fact that there's absolutely no way that my children, members of parliament will progress past where i have achieved. almost everyone in my constituency, the idea that their child could afford to buy a house as they were able to in the 1990s, is just — they would not even expect it. people's expectations of progress have slipped very, very badly. and in the past number of decades in politics... your raised so many interesting points there, bu

conservative, probably not out of much love for the conservatives but because they were worried about jeremy corbynoff by borisjohnson and this is the kind of thing which will cement their opinion of him. i think it is quite right to highlight them in the other kind of voters who could beat voting lib dem, less concerned about what that might mean, potentially helping labour or 2a keir starmer�*s labour party. i don't know if there's enough seats to deny the conservative majority, that would have to be combined with the labour resurgence in scotland and parts of the north of england and probably not all the seats that they have lost before. but it certainly could he be a significant chunk of some of the most marginal tory seats were these kinds of issues do matter. of course the matter as well because cutting £4 billion of funding for programmes that help literally the poorest people in the world should be morally unacceptable on its own terms and notjust necessarily on voting terms. but terms and not 'ust necessarily on voting terms.— terms and not 'ust necessarily on voting terms. but having said
