This is an indictment of the entire Labour party establishment. Corbynites and Brexit-blocking 'centrists' were two sides of the same progressive coin. The report by @GoodwinMJ and @olhe is worth reading in full.

@pargeterh - If you define "social conservatism" as conserving societies and communities, yes.
- No.
- No.
- Not about electability.
Maybe you should try to have a look at what Blue Labour is actually about instead of the "racist bigoted neo-Nazi reheated Strasserite scum" strawman.
@pargeterh Know this might be hard for you guys to understand but support for Blue Labour is actually about genuine belief in what Blue Labour stands for
@S11McNamara What's wrong with conserving societies? Are you a Thatcherite who thinks they should be sacrificed to the market? btw, flags of two terrorist states - not a good look!
@edwest And for once, I have a pang or sadness about that, because as @post_liberal points out, we really need some proper class analysis/action from the opposition right now.
And yet theyโd rather snigger at Blue Labour and disappear up their own intersectionalities.
@Sozzinski@PaulEmbery "Fascinating tweet this Paul. "Knucklehead"? This is exactly the kind of guy who would've voted Labour in the past. It seems that *all* wings of the party can't help demonising the white working classes, can they?"
The Conservatives are no longer the party of the rich while Labour is no longer the party of the poor. Both parties have inverted their traditional base of support. Our new JRF report on low-income voters is out today
