    But he’s their best leader ever. Labour has not been this strong since I’ve been following uk politics.

      Labour were like 1% point better than 2019. The only difference was the collapse of SNP, and the collapse of the Tory nationalist vote that ran to Reform.

      Labour just walked the ball into the open net.

        At least they managed to do that, unlike the center-left in other European countries.

          Not sure it’s centre left.

          They campaigned on being hard on immigration and not increasing taxes to increase spending.

          Keir has been quite deceptive and dropped all the policies he claimed in the leadership. He could be more right wing than Blair. So probably center right. The right wing of the party took over. Funded by business.
