Massive turnout? No, thanks.

So quiet was it in my local south-east London polling station that the tellers were going "mind blank". Not much likelihood of a high turnout there to show massive discontent with the parliamentary shenanigans of the last few weeks.
People were tootling by the polling station heading up the hill and down to the shops with a distinct sense that there was not much going on.
Divert into the polling station? Nah, can't be bothered.

Welcome

Welcome to the Next Left blog from the Fabian Society. We have been writing about policies and politics since the late 19th century. Now we are firmly in the 21st century, starting debates that matter today. As with all Fabian publications, posts on Next Left represent the views of their individual authors, not the collective view of the Fabian Society as a whole.

If you have got an idea, why not drop us a line with a 50 word pitch. It should not have been published previously and should fit with the Next Left ethos.
