And All Points Right?

Economically, Labour is opposing the Government from the right. It is now 10 points behind the Conservatives. Ten. And it has not yet finished sinking. Get the message.

"Keir Starmer will put Labour 20 points ahead," we were told, because of course everyone is a writer on The Times or The Guardian, or on the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail or The Sun, almost all of the writers on which hold the same views as the Times-Guardian types in private.

Well, no, actually, everyone is not such a person. So no, Starmer has not put Labour 20 points ahead. He is well on the way to putting Labour 20 points behind. Meanwhile, the Budget of March 2020 has ended the era that began with the Budget of 1976. The Centre is the think tank for this new era. It already has plenty going on.
