Being left wing in a predominantly right leaning country means you have to ditch some of your aims in order to get into power

It's no good ranting and raving and cheering on the likes of corbyn as he is Canon fodder for the Tories

Him , Benn, skinner etc ruin any chance of left of centre government as they give the tories a target

My view is that if starmer is the best chance of a not fecking tory government then so be it but he's not very good in my opinion . The sway towards labour in the opinion polls is clearly a response to the idiots running the country .

I sincerely hope labour cling on enough to form the next government but labour has too many factions and is prone to shooting itself in the foot .
