    Imagine that. If you go out of your way to present absolutely no vision for a better future and instead side with Tories repeatedly, you won’t inspire anyone to vote for you.

    Who knew?

      Look, I’m not exactly inspired by playing it safe either, but to suggest no one is going to vote Labour is wrong.

      https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/prediction_main.html

      93% probability of a Labour majority, with the current prediction being a Labour majority of 184.

      And this article is exactly what Labour should be pushing, they shouldn’t be presuming that the above projection is a sure thing. Voter apathy is a real problem, and getting the vote out is critically important.

      Politics in the UK has been sufficiently fractured in recent years that a lot of people are going to have to hold their noses to get the Tories out.
