Exactly my point. The Labour party leadership has become more moderate and this has attracted more support from ordinary voters, but the party activists are still resolutely left-wing. Quote from Claytonender to Cyfr earlier in this thread, "You say that the Labour Party is no longer left wing - are you in touch with main body of party members?" I also go into Labour Clubs (cheap beer, chav-free zone etc!) and Claytonender is right on the money in this.
In my view, the Tories are now a mirror image of the Labour party in this way, but apparently not according to Cyfr.
