Ok bad choice of phrase, I was just referring to anything further left than the centre-left. I appreciate that your opinion of 'New Labour' might not be that it is left at all. I was also trying to be polite and not say extremists. Perhaps I should have been blunt.

I haven't read all of their manifestos - although I did read that of the party that you are representing - but my suspicion would be that they share a lot of common ground?

Surely whilst they remain fragmented their opportunity to influence remains very limited?

Not that personally I see that as a bad thing, but that is a different debate.
