I recall them having a property on the Folkestone road but then decided to move .
They looked at two properties one in tower Hamlets and one in coombe valley .
But being in opposition for some years now , and without a labour MP it be difficult to finance such a big building , and with no paid officers the upkeep would be high .
I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see them in a building again .
You get that locally and certainly the councillors you have to chase to get them involved, there never looking likely to be anything more than a tired opposition party .
On the national scene they are still trying to identify themselves with corbynites trying to hang on in the party and Starmer trying to expell them.
Parachuting in candidates in places where the people elect local geezers .
Look at the Liverpool fiasco in parachuting in the candidate for MP.
To get elected Starmer is attempting to carry on Blair's moves to lose the labour identity .
Whilst this may go towards getting into number 10 in 20 years or so, it won't be the traditional labour party , it will be a second rate Tory type party .
Willing to make big cuts
Willing to continue to sell off parts of the NHS
Unwilling to help the working man/woman
Break away from unions
Have no say in local communities
Have no vision for working class people
All of this leaves large numbers not having a party to support and then they either don't vote (like they are doing in large numbers ) or protest voting .
Of course those working class days and the safe seats have long gone ,and labour had sat back and in a lit of areas usually known to be safe labour have lost the traditional support .
Who would ever of thought labour would lose mill hill
Now we are seeing in St rads they keep losing the seat
Both traditional labour areas .
This is the sign of the times where I believe labour must re-engage with its communities
We are still waiting on the area I live and I'm sure looking at results for MP or councils it's not changing by default the govt party is holding seats and even gaining from labour .
Very ineffective in opposition So nationally and locally things will only get worse I just can't see the tide turning or signs of recovery .
Things don't bode well for them
Or us really as with no opposition the govt wins seats they shouldn't , and get bigger majorities and then look what happens .
With this people don't have any time for politics or politicians which is sad as it affects our every day lives.
