I don't think that's right.
I don't think that they want people who break things.
For a lot of these people who are voting for these parties, as we're seeing in other European countries as well, it's already broken.
The political economic system for them is already broken.
They've got nothing to lose.
Honestly, I think... I really believe... Look, people talk about this government needs to be more progressive.
You make a strong argument that this is one of the most progressive governments, most left-wing governments we've had for decades.
If you look at the actual legislative agenda that the government has in all sorts of directions, whether we've seen it in Employment Rights or the Renters' Rights Act, which has just gone through.
There's lots of other stuff as well.
housing pouring loads of money into public services increasing the pension you can make a strong argument this is the most social democratic government that we've had for decades and yet we have this situation where the Labour Party is bleeding votes to the Greens I think that partly does go back to Keir Starmer's political strategy the Morgan McSweeney strategy where they decided to try and sort of basically tell the Greens or left wing voters you know what
If you don't like it, you can leave.
And guess what?

And they went somewhere else.
So there's bad political strategy from the beginning.
But it's more than that.
Honestly, I think it is about Keir Starmer.
It is about the man.
You know, sometimes we talk about this guy as if he's Atticus Finch or something.
That he's a man of sort of pure integrity and pure self-interest and pure sort of interest of the Labour Party.
