In its gut, the party thinks that idealism and big ideas kept Labour out of power, and that it is better off without them. If Labour wants voters to repose hope in it, then the party needs to spell out its ambitions. The Conservatives and Labour have made economic growth central to the political agenda without explaining where it will come from in an unstable world. Unlike the Tories, Labour understands that an accelerated green transition is a necessary act of shifting from the past towards the future. That is why the Guardian would vote, with hope and enthusiasm, for Labour to lead Britain to a better future.
