Reform are beating Labour in the polls and pushing US-style culture war bollocks, so the idiots at Blue Labour are proposing that Starmer focus public attention on US-style culture war bollocks!
You keep saying, "If Labour wants to appeal to working class people..." At what point do you acknowledge that Starmerites have no interest in appealing to working class people?
It is not an innocent series of accidents, that has made Starmer 100% useful to the cause of fascism, 100% of the time.
Please stop portraying Starmer's malicious sabotage, as if it's innocent idiocy. Starmer is not "stupid"; he is a SABOTEUR.
Starmer attached himself to a left-leaning party (despite being ideologically opposed to leftist values), hijacked the leadership (through a highly organized campaign of defamation, bullying & backstabbing), and then formed an ostensibly-Labour government that is further right than the Tories.
Starmer is not labour, and never has been. He was endorsed by the Bullingdon Club. By Sebastian James. By the Old Etonian friend, of Boris Johnson & David Cameron.
Starmer was installed to stop Jeremy Corbyn, not Nigel Farage. Just like Joe Biden was installed to stop Bernie Sanders, not Donald Trump.
Starmer robbed the British public of any ability to vote for a left-leaning party. Because that was his intention.
How can you fight, if you refuse to see what you're fighting?
Democracy? What democracy? It's bought and paid for. Politicians on the whole are bought and paid for. What happened to being public servants? They all come across now as various shades of demagogue. Starmer has sold the Labour Party and those who voted for him and the party. Each time I look at him he looks like a deer caught in the headlights, waiting to know what his paymasters want him to do, a ditherer, a dodderer, pedestrian at best, plodding and half cocked at worst, sold out his promises and now punishing the poor and disabled for the kleptocracy and mismanagement of the political class.
It is not stupidity, it is engineered and purposeful. 100s of 1000s died in the last round of austerity and no doubt 100s of 1000s will die in this round. No public or media outcry? It seems the poor and disabled and 'lower orders' of Britain are a separate species to be genocided and dismissed by all and sundry, particularly a parliament and political system full of upper middle class people.
I think the power of Starmer's CoS is massively underestimated. He's the one that's pushing all this merde. Plus Starmer's stubborn. Once he's been convinced of something, he's loathe to change course.
The ‘DEI bollox’ is not just an American phenomenon. It comes from Blackrock (and other banks and ‘investment’ firms), down to all the corporations it controls through the rigged stock market.
It’s a deliberately divisive political device, used to divert and diffuse any and all genuine left wing revolutionary energy.
After what they pulled on us between 2008-10, and then with the Covid ‘bailouts’ (transferring TRILLIONS from the citizenry to the Billionaire class), they knew a cohesive and unified left would be a danger to their survival.
Self-defeating idiocy. It's almost as if they've all been paid to throw the contest ......

I generally agree with your analysis, but on this one, AAV, you've let the Guardian jebait you into attacking a strawman.
Here's the note the Groiniad was quoting:
https://www.bluelabour.org/home/what-is-to-be-done
It's mostly about solid Labour economic policy: Nationalisation, investment in the state, abolishing fiscal rules, etc.
It absolutely is not all about igniting a culture war; the DEI point is more than halfway down, and one bullet amongst 10-15.
Notice the Blue Labour publication is almost 2 months old, indicating it was probably a slow news day for the Guardian...
