Although no longer surprising, it's frustrating that across the western world left-wing parties are now needing to fight twice as hard to maintain the status quo—let alone make progress—against not only right-wing and fascist parties, but also center-left parties that are caving in to fascist demands in an attempt at "big tent" politics.

First-past-the-post produces low quality complacent centre-left politicians winning pseudo-majority governments with only a minority of the vote.

Which naturally ends up with the rise of the far-right.

As per their MO, they used deceit to get a platform. The statement Burnham's office put out claims he has made his support for the trans community clear over the years. I would love to see him go further and denounce the LGB Alliance.
