Thank you, Bhaisahab.

Can I say the major support for te Labour is from the UK working class, while that of the Tory is from the middle or upper classes?

If the Labour is not always on the side of the workers, how can the Labour win in the election?

The Labour Party was founded primarily to improve the lot of the working class. There has, however, always been a middle class, intellectual element, without which they would never have gained power. In modern times society has changed, people have become better off, healthier and better educated (largely through the effects of socialist legislation). This has led to a lot of formerly working class people considering themselves to be middle class and changing their political allegiance. This is a huge subject which it would be very difficult to go into in any depth here.

Thank you very much for answering the questions of mine time and again.
