whats gone wrong with the left

The left is in retreat. That's the political argument doing the rounds at present. Some shift in the political discourse suggest the left is in a permanent state endless decline. If this is the case, then we in Europe are in for period of awful decline and punishing social disintegration.
Why is the left completely in a state total disarray. I would love to complete this discussion but this lap top is fast disintegrating itself......
