The Loony Left is a pejorative term to describe those considered to be politically far-left. The term was widely used in the campaign for the United Kingdom general election, 1987 and subsequently both by the Conservative Party and by British newspapers that supported the Conservative Party as well as by more moderate factions within the Labour movement to refer to the activities of more militantly left-wing politicians that they believed moderate voters would perceive as extreme or unreasonable. The label was directed at the policies and actions of some Labour Party controlled inner-city local government authorities and some Labour Party politicians. Although the labels "hard left" and "soft left" reflected a genuine political division within the Labour Party, "Loony Left" was by far the more often used label than either. While academics have depicted the era as of the "new urban left" (such as the rate-capping rebellion) as a throwback to earlier municipal militancy (e.g. Poplarism), wider media coverage tended to focus on the personalities of city leaders such as the Greater London Council's Ken Livingstone and Liverpool's Derek Hatton. |
