You are reading far too much into what I wrote. I meant centre as in literally centre, as in between Tory and LAbour. I literally wrote swing voters...
Yeah but where is the centre?
I'd say that the centre is quite a lot further to the right than it was even 15 years ago.
Does 'the left', 'the centre', 'the right' have meaning in the sense that it used to?
You used to (well in my head anyway
) have the broad 'The Far Left' (Trots, Communists and so on), 'The Left' (Greens, Labour), 'The Centre' (Lib Dems and maybe a few others), 'The Right' (Tories etc.), 'The Far Right' (Fascists, NF etc..)
I might be wrong with the classifications, but there seemed to be groups which occupied each area (That went left or right depening on .. stuff....)
