It is certainly NOT how Tony Blair won three successive General Elections for the Labour Party.No, it can only be of appeal to the die-hard left wing of the party who want to drag Britain back to the 70s.This sort of campaign might save the party from extinction but it will assure a Conservative victory and ulitimately make Labour as unelectable as it was under Foot.
