I don’t think you’re wrong about this, I’m just surprised how short-termist they’re being. You’d think that by just making the minimum amount of concessions, they’d walk to victory in the next election. But instead, they just double down, opening the door for uncle Nigel to skulk right in.
Not all, I agree with what you wrote. I suppose, to put it clearly, I’m surprised how far and how fast labour abandoned their supporters. You’re right, there’s plenty of historical precedent, it’s just shocking (to me, personally) to see the extent of it.
