That word is more appropriate to describe Corbyn's Labour Party.

Thank you for correcting, but it wasn't clear in that article that he was an ex-MP, just that he was an ex-Tory MP.

Incidentally, your assumption that some of those who voted Conservative last time were oldies and have died off only to be replaced by younger socialist-minded people has received a bit of a knock.

According to newspaper reports, the age at which a voter was more likely to have voted Tory than Labour, is now 40, down from 47 at the 2017 election.

This is the finding of a MORI poll. As well as that, a YouGov poll has revealed that Labour has lost many young voters since the last election, most notably to the Green Party.
