The moderate wing of the Labour party has a lot of baggage from the Blair years, but at the present time Labour is a dysfunctional mess incapable of representing anyone. And what's worse is that we have a very bad government at the present time that need strong opposition.

There is a very strong risk of Labour splitting at the moment. Nobody is happy with the current state of affairs and you've got a leadership who can't work with their own MP's and the party at grassroots level at each others throats.
