    The whole “governing from the centre” thing is so pointless now. If they’re going to call everything you do socialist, why bother trying to be moderate? If you’re gonna do the time might as well do the crime.

      Because they aren’t leftists who just go to the right to win, they are right wingers to the core.

      Their real enemy is leftists, they would rather the right wing than the left, just look at Frances liberals betraying the left right now.

      To add to what ant said “the media” (billionair rags) will be relentless in attacking any real attempt at socialist concepts so the general population, “left” and right will be largely against it. Just see how they treated Bernie when he was looking to be doing really well before the primaries. The scumbags at so-called “left biased” MSNBC were making up shit about Bernie having “people like them” executed.
