As to Boris appeal all I can say its a thing , and why the working class see's the Tories as an option is an even deeper issue that Labour seriously consider .
Labour though now are more likely to gain middle class liberal voters in bigger urban areas with a huge diversity of voters , those areas with large diversity and poverty are the risk areas , buy hey we've and Labour have known this for some time .
Before Brexit the Tories were wining elections and only the Blair project turned that on it head and in my view Labour imploded after Blair politics were abandoned , interestingly though I do wonder if Blair the European fan would have survived Brexit ??
