Idea details
New Labour let down its core constituency with the excuse that the socialist values of Old Labour were an electoral liability. But in ditching those values, New Labour sowed the seeds of its own destruction and now it is timid in the face to accusations from the vested interests in the media of 'leftism'. We need to re-establish 'left' as synonymous with: social justice, sound economics, and a better life for all.
