Populism is just another word for democracy Political policy’s that appeal to the general public as apposed to minority special interest groups I’m glad the Independent is ready to admit socialism stands in the way of democracy then.

So they say

......the rise of the people.

Socialism and populism aren't necessarily two separate things, I'd say in 2017 corbyn was far more successful at establishing himself as a populist, anti-establishment politician, come 2019 dithering over brexit, AS scandals and poor media rep prevented that

40% + of population voted for socialist views in the GE2019 but it didn't translate into seats dye to our parliamentary system ... take care or you maybe accused of misrepresentation! Socialism very popular with the youth ...oh yes & on the streets in France too!

Nothing to do with socialism declining but more to do with incompetent, charlatan, reckless and chauvinist leaderships. How would one expect Labour to come any closer with such an incompetent leadership?

Socialism too is populism. Actually, Socialism is declining as Racial Nationalism grows.

A clever manoeuvre Independent! Socialism is very much populist.

Sadly!

ALSO RACISM AND CRUELTY.

They’re getting their euros’ worth out of that Bannon.

Written as if someone has died in the independent family.

Economically left ideas are in many ways more popular. Socialist parties are declining; because mass foreign immigration is unmooring to any community. Left-wing parties in the west have forced an ultimatum on voters: if you want our economic protections, accept more immigration.

elvillegaschile Not populism. Patriotism and conservatism against marxist , violent left

His loss had nothing to do with socialism. It was him being anti-brexit and the political and media establishment painting him as an antisemite.

Yes it is time for nationalism. Let’s be patriotic and hate those who don’t look like us and come from different cultures. Adapt or off with your head. As we say in Australia 🇦🇺 - ‘love it or leave it’

Smart people of Europe, the youth are aware that the rest of the world are turning to the right to protect their countries heritages.

- He didn't adapt - He was always going to lose - There is sticking to 'values' and then there is pragmatism i.e. a socialist utopia is not pratical. - Politics is a murky smart game not some revolution you start and win from your bedroom.

Socialist parties have never done well in the UK. Social democrats have.
