    Nobody thinks we’re going to have a truly left wing government, as for whatever reason vanishingly few people want to vote for that.

      Lol, nobody you’ve spoken to perhaps. Also if they didn’t already, just wait for the media to pitch in over the next couple of years…

        Personally I know more people who’ve moved away from Labour than to it, I just acknowledge that people outside of cities exist and that I live in something of a bubble.

        Refusing to accept that is the sort of thinking that gets Reform so many votes as many people in large cities forget that the majority of the population don’t live in cities, and so don’t suffer from the problems there so much (higher cost of living and lower labour availability than rural areas) and so don’t care so much about progressive or socialist policies.

        EDIT: sorry, it’s late, I misread, I’ll keep this up and maybe edit again later because I’m too sleepy to respond to what you actually said right now
