Doesn’t NDP need to move to the right to take over the middle, or NDP will stay on the left and leave the middle vacant?

What do you think happens, if everyone ratchets to the right?

Then it leaves the left and middle for NDP if NDP is interested. Will NDP want the middle ? If even NDP move to the right, then the whole nation is on the right, whatever right is.

So if the Liberals ratchet to the right and the NDP does the same to capture some voters, what have we accomplished? Did we win something? No, we just shift the whole country to the right.

People like to see political spectrum as one dimensional, left to right. I suspect political spectrum has at least two dimensions. That makes it difficult to describe political positions. I’ll leave that to political scientists.
