| description | In the General Election of December 2019, the Labour Party suffered a surprising and spectacular defeat, the fourth in a row within a decade, one of the worst in its history since WWII.

Attention will be given to the role played by Labour's leadership, programme and strategy, as well as to the specific issue of Brexit, in order to take full measure of the electoral failure, which reveals a deep identity crisis. |
