It always makes me laugh when American commentators talk about 'The Left' or 'Socialists' in US politics. The 'Left' in the US would, at best, be seen as Centrist here and maybe even Center Right. I have no idea what Americans would call the *Hard* Left over here. Crazy maybe?
Here Bernie or AOC would be in the Liberal Party or on the Liberal side of Labour - sort of Socialist-Lite [grin].
