Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

What would I know, my references are only politics in 4 different countries including being a political party member in two of them, one of which was the UK ...

Maybe in some countries they wouldn't refer to Labour as centre-left, but I think the majority of Brits would agree with Labour being called centre-left.

For avoidance of confusion, I'm talking about New Labour, not traditional Labour.

Fair enough. I mean I would definitely say it's true that Starmer has moved rightwards since he was elected as Labour leader, but I guess I would consider him now being somewhere in the centre. People on the right would say he's far-left I bet. "Two-tier Keir" and all that.
