"I'm a moderate. I'm in the centre ground. Come and join me, you moderates of left and right. Let's retake this centre ground..." Anyone remember the SDP? They tried it. Not only did they fail, deservedly so, but they contributed to two more terms of Thatcherism, which meant industries shut down and whole communities wrecked. Oh, and the poll tax. Nice work. The same will happen if a bunch of disaffected Labour MPs, along with probably very few if any Tories, start to hover around the joke known as the LibDems, who, not having been satisfied with propping up Cameron for five years and helping to bring on brexit, then losing nearly all their seats, want to have another crack at it. They are opportunist wastrels with no vision and no integrity. Follow them and the Tories will be in until most of us here are pushing up daisies. That'll be good, eh?
