WTF is going on with UK Labour and UK politics in general?
Brexit has shifted the Overton window so far to the right that Labour are now Thatcherites, and the Tories are full blown fascists.

Actual quote: "You can take issue with Mrs Thatcher’s prescription, but she had a big manifesto for change and set about a course that lasted for over two decades.”
This is in the context of saying that a labour government now would be as big a change as Thatcher's was. So he's not praising her policies but her effectiveness, which you can't really argue against.
