Tories who expect Labour to implode need to grasp that its nostalgic policies, however batty, sound reassuring to many
For ten days now, there has been no Ed Miliband on Twitter. Rather, there is a chap called “Chaos”. Or, to give him his full name, “Chaos with Ed Miliband”. The erstwhile Labour leader changed his handle after Theresa May resigned. He did so in back-handed tribute to her predecessor, David Cameron, who inspired a meme when he tweeted the Conservative Party’s election strategy shortly before polling day in 2015. “Britain faces a simple and inescapable choice,” he wrote. “Stability and a strong government with me, or chaos with Ed Miliband.”
If the threat of “chaos with Ed Miliband” was enough to win a majority then, having “chaos with Jeremy Corbyn” up your sleeve ought to make the next election a walk in the park.
