For the first eighteen months of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, Labour
MPs were in open revolt. The party seemed to be heading back to the
early 1980s, when old-school Marxists tried and failed to take over
the party, at a shocking electoral cost. The snap general election
called by Theresa May for 8 June 2017 looked set to consign Labour
to the history books. But the best-laid plans of mice and men...
How long can the uneasy peace between moderate, anti-Corbyn MPs and
the leader's loyal grassroots activists last? What does Jeremy
Corbyn's Labour Party have in common with the Labour Party of
Attlee, Wilson and Blair? Is there even a future for either version
of `democratic socialism' in the twenty-first century? Or is the
Labour Party, as generations of voters have known it, finally
coming to the end of its useful life? The seeds of Labour's
travails and its hostile takeover by the hard left were sown years
earlier, during the turbulent, chaotic last years of the Labour
government. In Ten Years in the Death of the Labour Party,
columnist and former Labour MP Tom Harris turns the spotlight on
the decisions that doomed the party's fortunes and the people who
made them.
