One would think that the left would see events in Ukraine as an opportunity to carve out a coherent position for themselves in relation to the estabishment parties. In England and the US, they seem intellectualy paralysed.
For example, there's the tricky question of what happens in Europe, if we escalate the war, if and when the Americans cool on it because there's an election going on? They cooled on Iraq and Afghanistan, so why not Ukraine? It's a legitimate set of questions. To be honest I dispair at the Labour left. They seem incapabe of defending themselves, let alone moving forward.
