I'm referring to data from 2019! I'm no Starmer fan but we aren't talking about the last year. Left wing support is now the young and more educated not the working class to the extent that one still exists post Thatcher.

We no longer have prominent working class voices to combat the simple solutions and immigrant bashing from Reform and the Tories. Labour are all at sea and the left of centre vote is being carved up. I don't claim to have an answer and fear we are heading for a Reform govt.

This is definitely a big part of the problem. A combination of austerity and ever worsening working class representation in the media has dissolved any space for leftist working class voices to be heard. That's kind of my entire point really.
