The sad thing about this unassailable fact is that the Conservatives can indulge some of their more crackpot policies
with impunity, and the right wing of the party will be rubbing their hands with glee. The fruitcakes involved in Momentum
will never accept how the general populace of Britain eschews extreme politics, as they do in most stable democracies.
What actual policy of Jeremy Corbyn do you think is fruitcake? Or are you just repeating what you have been told?
The British public lapped up Maggie's extreme right wing policies, but nothing I have heard from Corbyn is particularly extreme, eg ncreasing the minimum wage, maintaining workers rights, making large corporations pay their tax, reducing tax loopholes for the rich, not allowing the reintroduction of grammar schools, renationalising the railways etc. are all fairly moderate and reasonable. What are the policies you believe are so extreme?
No doubt you will say unilateral disarmamant, but to me fruitcake is spending billions we apparently don't have on weapons we plan to never use, while we can't afford to look after our population (food banks, NHS funding crises, Police, Fire, Army cutbacks etc). And if we are ever in a situation where we have to use them it wont make any difference to the end result anyway, we will all be fried.
The Labour Party lost Scotland at the last election because they were not Socialist enough, and until and unless they win it back they are unelectable, whether socialist or red Tory lite.
So they may as well put forward an alternative agenda rather than pretend to be 'nice' Tories.
Also a very large part of the electorate votes against it's own economic interest because it is told to and Labour needs to defeat that. More likely to get there by offering a bold and completely different option than by arguing for a few degrees of separation.
