Labour and the Lib Dems must put aside their differences to end a decade in power of a corrupt and immoral regime
Two articles last week highlighted the most important strategic decisions facing Labour (“Quash talk of a Labour deal with SNP now, 2015 election team urges Starmer”, News, and “A Lab-Lib pincer movement is the most effective way to strike fear into the Tories”, Comment).
Happily for the party, the dilemma outlined in the former can be negated by forming a Progressive Alliance, as discussed in the latter. With more than a dozen SNP seats vulnerable to Lab-Lib-Green cooperation, a Britain-wide, Tory-busting Progressive Alliance at the next election would also come with the considerable bonus of allowing Labour to re-establish a Westminster presence in Scotland.
