Policies "designed with Marxism in mind" and Marxist policies aren't the same thing. Anything on the left of the political spectrum could have that applied to it.

I'm quite sure if we compare a Foot manifesto with the most recent Labour one there will be plenty of differences.

What we are seeing here is an attempt to redefine centre-left alongside communism, as has been done in the United States, so some can push extreme unrestricted and unregulated capitalism as the alternative.
