They were naive, unforgivable really considering they’re the party that wants electoral reform of the sort that actually causes coalitions almost every time. They know - or ought to - that they’ll never form a majority government alone and that their pitch, if delivered honestly, ought to reflect that. But they never have. They’ve always preferred to assume they’ll never have to deliver on any promise they ever make, and can therefore spend their time navel gazing, virtue signalling and running intensely local campaigns that aren’t above contradicting each other when convenient.
