The last two paragraphs of this article are very prescient, I feel.
Julian Astle for The Independent wrote:For rather than identifying either with the Left or the Right as the pre- and post- war generations did, and do, today’s young combine the social liberal views of the Left (secular, internationalist, concerned about the environment, relaxed about lifestyle choices and family structures) and the classical liberal views of the Right (in favour of balanced budgets, low taxation, conditional welfare, personal responsibility, individual choice and entrepreneurship) without seeing any contradiction between the two.

This increasingly educated, empowered, technologically savvy cohort is left cold by the conservatism of the Tory party and the collectivism of the Labour party. They are instinctive liberals. They just need a liberal party to vote for.

Chuka Umunna has ruled himself out (and why are people calling him Khan?)

*slow clap*

Well done on being a full WEEK late with that breaking news, responding to a post I made TWO weeks ago. I have absolutely no idea what point you were trying to make with this post.

I just dont want Burham to get it but I have a bad feeling he will, Im still not going to vote for him I'll give to someone else. Hopeful Labour makes the changes to make it easier to get rid of a crap leader.
