\/><\/noscript><figcaption>Passionate Labour supporters before their election defeat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> Each election is an opportunity for politicians to present policies they believe in to the electorate and be held accountable to the mainstream population for their actions over the past few years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Jeremy Corbyn led his party effectively in the last election with his message seeming to resonate, especially with younger voters, this was not the case in the December 2019 election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was despite the fact that Corbyn was still leader of the\nLabour Party and standing for many of the same policies as before, so what alienated\nhim and his party to many ordinary Labour voters?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think the main reason Labour lost was because of the Brexit \/ Corbyn issue[s],\u201d says Faye Burnell, a student at Cardiff University. \u201cI think not making a decision and being vocal about it meant that people didn&#8217;t really know what his stance was.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was in stark contrast to Labour\u2019s position in 2017 where,\nalthough many did not agree with the result of the referendum, they nonetheless\nagreed to respect the result of this referendum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A YouGov survey taken after the election of almost 500 voters\nwho had voted Labour in 2017 found the main cause of Labour\u2019s defeat in their\nview was Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Labour supporters themselves created a toxic environment where they failed to realise you can\u2019t insult and bully someone into agreeing with you, no matter how logical your argument, argues Beth Hugz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPeople also filled little bubbles and echo chambers, surrounding themselves with fellow Labour voters and getting more and more radical in discourse but less in action.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe right is actually presenting a warm and friendly and seemingly self-expressive\nenvironment for people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to an internal&nbsp;Labour&nbsp;report following the party\u2019s cataclysmic performance in the last election, it was not&nbsp;Jeremy Corbyn&nbsp;who was responsible but Brexit that played a decisive role in the Conservatives\u2019 landslide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report, presented to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/national-executive-committee\">National Executive Committee<\/a>&nbsp;(NEC), which governs Labour, said that &nbsp;\u201cunrelenting\u201d media attacks on the character of Jeremy Corbyn had a negative impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Josh Brown, a student at Cardiff Metropolitan University, suggests that Corbyn being vilified by the media as a terrorist, anti-Semite and just generally the bad guy was a contributing factor to Labour\u2019s election defeat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\"

\/><\/noscript><figcaption>Jeremy Corbyn, seen by many as the main reason for Labour&#8217;s defeat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Alastair Cameron argues that the main causes of Labour\u2019s loss of electability were Labour having no clear policy on Brexit, as well as offering  straight up socialism which would immediately alienate a huge proportion of the electorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\n \u201cThe Labour Party needs to ditch full-on socialism and embrace Blairite social democratic policies again,\u201d argues Cameron. \u201cIts broken off into a civil war between the far left, [who are] unelectable, and the moderates\u201d. \n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;A general abandonment of\ntheir traditional voter base in order to pursue the votes of ill-advised students\nand those in the Capital is the main cause of Labour\u2019s defeat, argues Harrison\nStaines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He  suggests that to regain the support of traditional Labour votes they simply need to return to the centre ground and focus on truly important issues rather than being \u2018woke\u2019 which is getting them nowhere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\nThis, as well as the issues of Brexit and the economic competence of their policies were the three main reasons for Labour\u2019s electoral defeat.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"365\"

away [and] Labour needs to stop telling the electorate what they ought to want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Cameron purports that Keir Starmer is the best chance for Labour victory, but he was a Remainer so winning back the working class is contingent on the Conservatives making mistakes and alienating the electorate.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\nWith Staines concurring, \u201cKeir Starmer may have a chance, but the gap is too big to be breached in the next election to me.\u201d\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAny candidate can win for Labour as long as they\u2019re right of centre,&#8221; argues Hugz. \u201cThey\u2019ll parade centrism, but they will just be Tories in red ties.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sadly not convinced that Labour can win the\nnext election regardless of the leader,
