So what is “the left” that TWA is apparently so disillusioned with ?
Do we have a consensual definition?

I see the left in this sense as being the people constantly sticking it to Starmer. They know very well that It takes more than one budget to sort out waiting lists, and actually don't care that they're coming down. There's the Corbyn types, but also a "Remainer" strain to it, perhaps combined in the Green Party.
It's deeply annoying.

Surely only TWA can tell us that?

I call them the far left….
I don’t think they should be anywhere near government like their ideological enemies who they never actually seem to fight, those on the far right.
The Weimar Republic is a great example.
