IF APRIL 23 doesn’t ring any bells it might be as wise to look away now. Just recently Keir Starmer has been busy wrapping himself in the Union Jack, with the suggestion that by doing so Labour can win back the “red wall” seats. There are three very obvious problems with this. First, “progressive patriotism” isn’t a new turn for Labour, anything but. In 1997 Tony Blair had a go with his “vision for a young country.” Then Gordon Brown stood in front of an enormous Union Jack and declared “British jobs for British workers.” Ed Miliband coined the phrase “one nation Labour” for his version.
