        Please stop using the term "moderate" as it is heavily disputed and only helps to maintain divisions. @clarkaw

        he didn't use the word moderate, I was paraphrasing. Surely moderate = closer to political centre ground? Or am I missing something

        The problem with "moderate" is that it makes everybody else extreme. They need to find out what they stand for and be called that.

      There's no argument to be had any more, Chuka. They won. Our party is dead. I really believe that.
