Blaise Ulysse Bernard Collins: DO NOT incorrectly assume that this is a pattern of reversing nationalism. The UK Labor party has won a majority; but also after a 4+ yr campaign of purging actual socialists. The French Right has fallen short of a majority; but France has one of the most vocal ACTUAL left wing populace in Europe.

The labor party in the UK got that way by a substantial pivot to the right. Also the number of votes the reform party got was not that small.

Yeah there really is no reason for this NewLabor 2.0 to be successful beyond its commitment to never making a commitment and the Tories fumbling a decade of power.

They are very good at not making any commitments! I am impressed with that at least.
