@FlyingSquid In my humble experience and understanding 'centrism' has been always an euphemism for 'far right' for the "politically correct" miserable cowards...
That's quite a humble understanding imho. Centrists are technocratic. Evidence led, not ideological. Take good ideas from the centre right on regulating business and combine that with social policies from the left.
The Nordic model basically.
I have yet to encounter a self-described "centrist" that can justify their hollow pandering with anything that can remotely be called evidence.
The success of the Nordic social market model?
@bernieecclestoned We're talking about different centrists.
Aside from that, the right has never produced good ideas on regulating business, those ideas only came from the left.
