'Things Are Getting Better' Says Lancaster
Labour leader draws attention to the changes the Labour-Socialist government have instituted

The Labour Party leader, Maggie Lancaster, has spoken out about the improvements that her party and the Socialist Party have brought in during their short time in government together. In a short interview with regional newspaper The Kaliburg Times, she sought to garner attention to the sweeping changes that the two parties have pushed through the National Assembly since the Conservatives dramatically disappeared. In the light hearted conversation, Mrs Lancaster explained how she was enjoying the rebuilt relationship between the left-wing parties after several years of fractious exchanges in the Assembly and the press. When she was queried on whether the Labour Party would consider endorsing a Socialist candidate for President, she replied 'I would have to evaluate the individual in question but that is certainly on the table'.
Mrs Lancaster also spoke about her election as General Secretary this time last year, saying 'I believe I was the candidate who presented the most hope-filled and positive outlooks about the Kalistan of this century'. Her term to date has been marked by a reversal in the trend of declining party membership, with the number of members now higher than at any time during the last decade of the 4000's. A fortnight ago, the Party Congress appointed another ex-Socialist Party member to the Central Committee in the form of new Food and Agriculture Spokesperson Harvey Bennots taking the total to four, including Lancaster. The Congress also approved a motion which would allow Labour members to simultaneously hold Socialist Party membership, subject to the approval of that party.
When combined, all of these developments have triggered speculation about Lancaster's ultimate plan for the party with some even suggesting she favours unification of the Left. Presently, this would probably not be a universally popular decision in either party with the sour taste of division still in the mouths of many members. In the future, however, it could be a reasonable proposal. Even Luca Curti, during the 4070's, claimed he 'sometimes wonder[ed] whether it would be easier if we just had a single Leftist party'. Whether there is any truth to the hearsay can only be decided by time but anybody who thought the fall of the Right would lead to politics in Kalistan becoming tedious is evidently mistaken.
