Labour is very adept at distributing wealth created by jobs created by non-labour.

When Labour runs out of other people’s money it hibernates into opposition. It waits in earnest for the other side to bake the cake.

Then it fights itself into government, no holds barred, to distribute the slices and the iced buns.
