The important thing to remember. Comparing me,bership of left wing parties to right is valueless.

Not only is membership not an indicator of voting intent. And way less so of voting distribution. Something that really matters in our system.

But the left is the only side that depends on it for fiscal support. All centre and right parties would rather appeal to corperation and wealthy ndoners. Then high membership numbers.

While to us on the left high numbers is great to compare funding options. Comparing it to Tory membership means nothing at all.
