Newsflash - Hell freezes over !!!
Which I would have expected to happen before The Guardian even considers the possiblity of not supporting Labour.
But today an editorial called "Progress in Blue" begins as follows:
"There have been moments in the postwar history of Britain when people who would naturally be inclined to vote Labour have been driven to ask themselves whether the return of a Conservative government would be the worst possible outcome for the country or for the general cause of progress? For those in Britain who think of themselves as progressives, the answer has usually been an unhesitating yes. Nevertheless there is a reasonable and sober body of historical work which reaches the judgment that there have, indeed, been times when Labour has deserved to lose.
We may be approaching another moment for difficult questions."
