In history all the big changes comes at a high price, I wish someone from the hard left could embrace this burden and going forward. But so far just moderate words with no chance of winning any election...
Regarding Trump, in the end he will may be just one of the many moderates keep going... He may had just gamble hard with speeches to win the election and then that's it really.

I think the real problem is that the old guard of Labour MPs come from the Industrial heartlands of the North and Scotland, and now that these factories and productive centres have died so has the communities of workers and grass-roots activism that co-existed with their Unions who were directly co-dependent with the people around them.
Now it seems that most Labour MPs are drawn from a professional class that have no notion or experience of actual industry, aren't part of a wider professional community unless it's the Bar Association and the notion of 'the working man' refers to some vague notion of people that actually do or produce things somewhere that isn't London. Even those professions like Teaching or NHS that are Unionised seem to have been taken for granted as unquestionably supporting the party no matter how right wing they get or how little support they are given in return.
It's a pretty unsustainable model and it begs the question what the Left actually represents in a service-based, finance-dependant and largely urban economy.
Anyway. An oompah loompah with tiny hands just grabbed America by the cunt. What a time to be alive, eh?

Setting yourself on fire is also "change". Not disputing the talk works, but it going to come at a price.
