Tony Blair unleashes stinging attack on ‘woke left’ and says Labour could cease
to exist ![]() “Keir seems sensible but not radical. He lacks a compelling economic message. And the cultural message, because he is not clarifying it, is being defined by the ‘woke’ left, whose every statement gets cut-through courtesy of the right.” Sir Keir is “struggling to break through with the public, and last week’s elections are a major setback”, continued Mr Blair, with Labour now “asking whether Keir is the right leader”. But the ex-PM, now running the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change which has been at the forefront of the battle against Covid-19, warned that Labour “won’t revive simply by a change of leader”. “A progressive party seeking power which looks askance at the likes of Trevor Phillips, Sara Khan, or JK Rowling, is not going to win,” he warned. “People are suspicious that behind the agenda of many of the culture warriors on the left lies an ideology they find alien and extreme.” https://www.standard.co.uk/news/poli...t-b934635.html |
