ABOUT THE MOTION:This House Regrets New Labour
As Labour recovers from its worst defeat in decades, we ask: does Labour have to become like New Labour to win? And is that worth the price? The debate will ask us to take an historical look back on the period of 1997-2010, Iraq, the financial crash, 7/7 - was the New Labour response to these events the correct one? As time passes, new perspectives on the Blair-Brown era are beginning to emerge. Is now the time to look back to the past for answers, or is it time for something else entirely?
