  1. Oh, Labour are centrists now all of a sudden? I thought in Telegraphland they were raving socialists!
  2. Protesting too much. The Tories were too too shit to risk running government again but you've got to keep up appearances and that.

    General Election 2024?

    Labour's electoral strategy was spot on even though in football terms it didn't win many friends. Knowing through their own polling that the Tories vote would crater they spread their resources enough to capture as many seats as possible, figuring that all they had to do was to hold their vote up or for it to go up slightly and let Reform do the rest.

    That Portillo Moment

    I think politics is more ruthless these days. Take Harold Wilson for instance. He swanned back into Downing St 4 years after defeat. That would never happen these days. If UK politics in 1970 was like it is today, he would have stood down as Labour leader the following morning.

    That Portillo Moment

    If you're strictly judging a "Portillo Moment" as the surprise defeat of a frontbencher who would have made an impact in the next Parliament, then Jonathan Ashworth is worth considering. That defeat came from nowhere.
