The good news is that political parties have a capacity to regenerate themselves after electoral shocks

, like all parties, usually loses general elections because it drifts too far away from the political centre. How “centrist” or “extreme” a party is has long proved a reliable guide to political success and collapse.is because it has, once again, wandered too far from this electoral happy hunting ground. And yet it is not entirely clear where the political centre now resides as we enter the third decade of the 21st century.

Not everyone can do hypocrisy!

Change of position for the Toilet Roll who have been supporting Corbynism for all they were worth, their conversion, like always, has a hollow ring.

Reflection! The sheer arrogance. Corbyn fails to beat, possibly the worst calibre Tory Team in history. After 10 years of osterity. Go, go now and take the entire Momentum with you.

Because the Centre did *so well* this election? When former Labour voters were asked why they left, the two main reasons were a general 'dislike' of Corbyn and Brexit. The reason with the lowest response? (by a considerable margin). Policy.

Really the lady’s were all set to celebrate 🎉 Corbyns big win!

No! Labour is left! BlairNeverMore ClementAtleeYes

Look at how the centrist parties did in this election and you tell me that’s what people want. Until evidence suggests otherwise a socialist agenda with an undamaged leader seems like a better option to me.

this is shit

Nah. Holding fast to defeat the dark powers of the political Center with International like-minded support

LOL! That Blairite shit is dead.

No. JC was the right man with the right politics, just at the wrong time A party shouldn't move towards the electorate, they must convince the electorate to move 2 them BJ was pro EU until the day it would end his career JC isn't PM, but he hasn't whored his principles Legend

Hieronymus Bosch lives!
