Sir,
Divided
Loyalties
Neal Lawson (The party of the
living dead, January 8) recommends "a new politics and sense of
collectivism" if there is to be any hope for the "democratic
left". But the new product is no longer owned by the democratic left.
Labour is now a party for "centre and centre-left politics". It
says so on the tin (the 1997 manifesto).
