    So Labour will lurch to the left now, to ‘win back Green voters’, right?

    …Right?

      There’s this bit in the Indian epic poem the Mahabharata where the hero, Yudhishtira, is gambling away his family’s kingdom. He known it’s happening, he knows he should stop and he also knows that he just can’t stop. The Labour party right now reminds me of Yudhishtira, compelled, for reasons neither they nor anyone understand, to embark on a path of self-destruction.

    Great and very interesting analysis.

    Labour will carry on with their current trajectory and alienate more of their base.
