Re: Labour has pledged

The problem is that fundamentally Labour seeks to appeal to two separate groups.

1) The low income "working class" who are screwed over by low wages and a high cost of living, which are their primary political concerns.

2) The Metropolitan liberals who earn enough to not be too pressed by the high cost of living, and benefit from cheap labour and want to perpetuate this.

This would be best served by having one party representing each group instead of one representing both, where the interests of one are in opposition to the other.
