Petrified fucking terror. That’s the first thing you think when you look at Labour. A barely-concealed, buttoned-up, can’t-sleep-at-night anxiety, lurking just behind the eyes. They’re scared they’ll fluff it. They’re scared that in the white heat of the election campaign, the Tories will find some policy in their manifesto to weaponise against them and the whole thing will come crashing down.

    Personally I think PR is the single most important thing that we need to achieve if we ever want any progress in this country. We can’t keep having this choice between the Tories and the party people vote for to keep the Tories out.

    Maybe there needs to be a single issue party that needs to exist to apply pressure, like ukip did with Brexit.

      Not even maybe.

      We need two parties, a left wing PR group to pressure Labour, and a right wing one to pressure Conservatives.

      It will let them argue the point that it’s beneficial for each side of the room without getting bogged down with playing the tie colour game.
