Bang-average and uninspiring sounds f***ing awesome after what we've had to put up with since 2016.I tend to agree. Labour have been weak in opposition, but it's not only down to them. The LDs have been dead in the water for a decade, and their leader is tarnished by the post office scandal. Normally my default vote would be for the LDs if they had any sort of fighting chance or even some sort of political clout, but this time I'll do what needs to be done to finally rid us of 14 years of the worst administration we've ever seen. I'll vote for a bang-average uninspiring Labour party. But the reality is that as a centrist, economic pragmatist and a remainer, I'm politically homeless.
I was glad when Corbyn didn't just lose, but got trounced, at the last GE, as this meant the end of the idealistic pipe dream that a genuine left wing party could ever hope to win a majority in this country. We've now got far more cenrist Labour party with non-polarising 'meh' policies, and that suits me fine if it prevents the hard-right headbangers being elected.
