@ChrisMayLA6 Others see it as somewhere where the classic social democratic model where a mass party linked formally or otherwise to organised labour still has traction. The case for this has been best set out by #davidbrady in 'Rich Democracies, Poor People' . It seems likely that the #labourparty members, the #tradesunions and most of the #parliamentarylabourparty believe they are living in a #davidbrady world - unfortunately it is not clear whether those in charge in #downingstreet do!
