Do these people believe in their own propaganda about how economy works that austerity-led growth is possible?

Is it that they don't care about the party or their own reputation?

I hope Corbyn and the Greens don't fall for the same fiscal responsibility nonsense. Never give the neoliberals an inch.

Their job is to keep the left out. For some of them this is just a product of their incoherent politics; for many of them these days it is an explicit part of their belief system and their number one priority. Starmer in particular is an establishment man though and through, and I'm sure he'll be rewarded for the role he's played in ushering in Farage et al.
