    I’m not a big fan of Starmer, but he’s slid labour back from the far left to the centre, not to the right. I will accept your point on the trans issue though, otherwise left leaning women who should know better are acting as useful idiots for the right on that one.

      The benefit cap is right wing.
      Banning your MPs from joining picket lines is right wing.
      Purging the left wing from your party -but leaving the right wing untouched- iis right wing.
      You can only call Starmer centrist if your view is one from a right wing perspective.
      The Overton window in the UK is too far to the right, as is our policy on almost every area. We need a strong push to the left to take us back to the centre, not a slightly watered down, more palatable version of Thatcherism.

      Well, I didn’t mean to say Labour is far-right or anything, just that they’re sliding in the direction of the right.
