But he never put himself in a position where he could influence any of those things.

I don't think it's personally his fault - those are the critical concerns of the Labour party. In choosing someone that the voters they need would simply never vote for they allowed it to happen that they would never be able to influence those policies.

I honestly have no clue what you're on about.

My point was don't abandon the left in the hopes of an electoral win for the sake of an electoral win. And you're writing riddles.

I'm with you on disappointments. I've been here since the end of Blair and only seen losses. In Canada I've been witness to the Ford Brothers (one of which is currently king of Ontario), a decade of neo-conservative governments, and more than a decade of neo-liberalism before that.

They've now got business-as-usual-Trudeau-centrism which the world was gushing over for a minute. I'd say his pretty-boy-photo-op-persona is the epitome of nihlistic wins. It doesn't feel any better.
