The Labour party has won over 400 seats (out of 650) in the 2024 UK General Elections, and Keir Starmer is expected to replace Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister. The Conservatives, in power for the last fourteen years, have suffered a rout, losing over two-thirds of their seats. The SNP has collapsed in Scotland, mostly to Labour, and the Liberal Democrats have gained over sixty seats.

    Not left wing. Just left.

    None of them are left wing (maybe Green has some left wing stuff?)

      green is definately left wing, they’re hardly anti immigration and pro-big business, anti environmental regulation, are they?

          I have never heard of them be referred to as anything centrist. I don’t know why you think they’re not left wing, but from what I’ve heard from you in this thread, I don’t particularly think learning about the mechanism of your mind is likely to give me any uplifting insights into humanity nor politics.

            You know it’s a sliding scale, right?

            There’s not just three choices.

            There’s Far-side, side-wing, side, side-leaning, center-side for both (plus center).

            Then you have fiscal Vs moral lean on both sides.
