 Today I have the pleasure of sitting with Dr. Beach, once again, a political scientist from the University of Hull in England. Last time we spoke about the similarities between Brexit and Trump. This time we're going to be speaking about the Labour Party in the United Kingdom and the Democratic Party in the United States, and whether or not both parties have the opportunity for a comeback. Dr. Beach, why is it safe to compare the Labour Party to the Democratic Party? Both parties are progressive parties, their parties occupy the centre-left, both parties are one of the two main parties in each respective country. Both parties are out of power, both parties do face significant challenges in terms of their traditional voters and how they win them back. Do you think that the Democratic Party and the Labour Party have the opportunity for a comeback? I think in the long run, yeah, because they are one of the two main parties in their respective systems. I think the Dems, the Democrats, are a far better place to come back in terms of presidential politics in four years' time. I think the 2016 US presidential election was a change election, and even though Donald Trump, to many observers, seemed neither to be, and to this day seems neither to be a conservative or necessarily a natural choice for many socially conservative, traditional values voters, he represented, his narrative represented significant change. The Democrats did not pick a changed candidate. I don't think Hillary Clinton was an especially strong candidate at all, quite frankly. She really represented the political establishment and perhaps more of the same. So he was Donald Trump, the change agent. And I think really that the Dems are not in that bad a shape in terms of putting forward a candidate in four years' time who can speak to a range of different groups within the American electorate. What about the Labour Party? I think it's quite a different situation. I think the Labour Party are in poor shape, immensely poor shape. And it's not just because they have the most left-wing leader in their history, and it's not just the fact that he is viewed with real skepticism by the British public. The vast majority of the British public do not think that Jeremy Corbyn is prime ministerial at all. They don't think he's the type of leader who can represent the nation, they don't have confidence in what he says in a whole range of issues from defence to homeland security to the economy. He really is not a strong card. Thank you so much for joining me, Dr Beech, and I look forward to our next conversation. Thank you, Emmanuel.
