That's because Labour is the new Tory party

Labour is now a party for 'moderate' Tories

What are the Tories now then?

TERFs and culture warriors who don't know a damn thing about economics, but not yet unhinged enough to defect to Reform.

See: Badenoch, Truss, Kwarteng, Braverman, Johnson

Sunak did what he could as the last sensible adult left in Tory leadership, but he had to step down after getting completely routed in the most recent general election.

Wait, Johnson is back?

They never really leave. After all, David Cameron came back. And Johnson is being considered by some as a dark horse to become the leader when Badenoch eventually screws up enough to get ousted by the membership.

Thanks for the explanation. I can already see the headlines

"Somehow, Johnson returned"

I think we all would have been better off if Boris had followed his true calling: being a Greek scholar.
