Steve Coogan on Labour etc.

If the new Corbyn/Sultana party comes to be, it'll be a toss-up for me at future elections whether to vote for them or the Greens.  I'm certainly finished wit Labour.

Unless there is a radical change of direction by Labour, I, too, am finished with them.

My great fear is, the way Labour is paving the way for Reform. Pushing towards them in terms of rhetoric is not a way to dissipate the threat; rather, it strengthens it.

I know they were dealt a bad hand in terms of what they inherited, but more of the same-ish is not a policy I can go along with.
