Labour’s had a few major crises in terms of party finances, particularly the early 1990s, And mid-00s. In fact I think it got VERY bad around 2005 election as well as the scenario Bob describes

Social Democratic/Democratic Socialist Ireland is the freshness us folks need provided by the wonderful folks on the Cooperative list thread."We are on our knees, let us rise"
Heads of Government of the 32 County Irish Free State/32 County Irish Republic
I'm expecting leftie folks in this universe to be babbling on about the 'Irish Model' or something similar.

I actually envisioned Ulster becoming a bastion of Labour radicalism in this TL, the Syndicalists are based there.

Yeah, makes sense.Have to give credit to the folks in the collaborative thread for this one, they set the pace.

Also I was also thinking that James Connolly doesn't affiliate with the Soviet Union and based on that and his own personal charisma manages to make the Irish Communist Party a credible party in its own right (and also allows it to resist the various mergers).

*In November 1999, having led her party for almost 25 years, and her nation for over 20, Margaret Thatcher shockingly announces her resignation as leader of the Conservative Party. One month later, 39 year old William Hague becomes the youngest Tory leader in over a hundred years, and on the first day of the new millenium, he acceeds to the premiership. Thatcher immediately resigns from the Commons and is made Lady Thatcher of Kesteven. The Tories hold Finchley and Golders Green in the ensuing by-election.
*Despite a small gain in seats for the Labour Party, Diane Abbott loses her seat, necessitating her resignation as leader of the Labour Party. She is soon replaced by David Miliband, after an acting leadership lasting a few months courtesy of Deputy Leader Jack Straw.
*Having led his party to two hung parliaments, in mid 2007, the Prime Minister announces his coming resignation as leader of the Conservative Party. Kenneth Clarke, of the opposite wing of the Tory party to Hague, is elected his replacement and soon assumes the premiership.
*The Liberal Democrats lose half their seats in retaliation for them going into coalition with the Conservatives. Deputy Prime Minister Paddy Ashdown announces his resignation as leader of the Liberal Democrats, after 22 years leading the party. He is soon replaced by Charles Kennedy, who becomes Deputy Prime Minister on his ascension to the Liberal Democrat leadership .
*In the landslide defeat for the Conservatives, the Prime Minister lost his seat, as well as Deputy Prime Minister Charles Kennedy, with the Liberal Democrats going into single figures. Theresa May becomes acting Conservative Leader, while Vince Cable becomes acting Liberal Democrat leader. Philip Hammond is later elected Conservative Leader, and Vince Cable is elected Lib Dem leader in his own right.
*The second EU Referendum was held on the same day as the General Election. Although it results in an increased majority for Labour, the public votes to leave the EU 54 to 46. David Miliband announces his resignation as Leader of the Labour Party and his replacement, John McDonnell, is elected two months after.
I made a pretty ASB list of election results when I was in Year Ten with a divergence from 1983, with the Tories getting a landslide majority of over 250. I don't have the specifics of seat numbers on me right now unfortunately, but I do remember the leaders, their times in office, roughly where each party stands in parliament, and some big names who lost their seats after results. As for why Paddy lasts 22 years in the Lib Dem leadership, he does vastly, vastly better and eventually reaches about 120 seats, before crashing down to 60ish in 2010, mainly at the behest of Labour. Thoughts?

Cripps isn’t exactly unhappy as Viceroy of India, though Chancellor Attlee probably stirs up a fuss for Morrison.So I'm guessing Bevan, Atllee and Cripps aren't particularly happy in this timeline.

Curzon’s Tories start off as a splinter faction just really ticked off with Baldwin. But after Baldwin keeps failing to win elections they end up attracting a lot of young tories like Macmillan. As the New Party they end up trying “fascism with a human face” though initially really internationalist

I can see Cripps and Nehru working well together, essentially trying to create his own social democratic India much to the annoyance of the ruling classes there. Attlee pressing Bevin's and Morrison's much like Morrison did to OTL Attlee. Also I could see him being more Left Wing like the early 30s as he doesn't shift to the Centre due to leadership.Cripps isn’t exactly unhappy as Viceroy of India, though Chancellor Attlee probably stirs up a fuss for Morrison
I'm imagining a confused mix of One Nation Tories, Beefsteak Fascists and former Left Wing Radicals obsessed with protectionism and who didn't wander over to Lloyd-George's Liberal's (who I'm guessing went full Keynesian leading to the split between National Liberal and Liberal)Curzon’s Tories start off as a splinter faction just really ticked off with Baldwin.

I'm not sure. I think Attlee in a senior position like Chancellor, and as a partner of a wartime coalition, would have gone fairly central anyway. Maybe not as much OTL though.

That's part of the reason for the Liberal split, but there is also Lloyd George's radicalism, never-ending leadership alienates more mainstream Liberals. The straw that breaks the camel's back and causes the 1931 election is Clynes propose a relief package to Germany to basically save it from Hitler but it initially gets rejected by the Lords. Lloyd George and Mosley back it, then Clynes calls the election which gives the National Liberals that give the Liberal Nationals the chance to break off, not that it does them much good.
Relics of Stagnation - Leaders of the USSR
1966-1977: Leonid Brezhnev
1977-1982: Andrei Kirilenko
1982-1988: Viktor Chebrikov
1988-1993: Nikolai Tikhonov
1993-1994: Vadim Bakatin/Boris Pugo/Valentin Varennikov (Troika Leadership)
1994-1998: Valentin Varennikov (Military faction)
1998-2006: Dmitry Yazov (Military faction)
2006-2012: Sergei Ivanov (State Security faction)
2012-XXXX: Mikhail Kasyanov (CPSU with State Security faction supervision)
Brezhnev is felled by his heart attack in 1977 and does not recover, having not yet lost all his influence Kirilenko is seen as the continuity candidate by Brezhnevists in the party.
However his various aliments are worse than anticipated and simply lead to five long years of stagnation, allow full intervention in Afghanistan is avoided and the Conservatives in the party manage to block the progress of a number of reformers, such as Gorbachev.
Upon his death Chebrikov is the favoured candidate of the bureaucracy, having replaced Andropov upon Brezhnev's death. What follows is 6 years of increased repression, economic stagnation and wide spread corruption, and a Union reaching breaking point.
The remaining reformers try one last heave to gain control and reform the Union, but they choose a poor front man to do so in Tikhonov. His indecision and weak position of his allies allow the conservative faction to run unchecked. Graft increases, as does Nationalism and Regionalism, private fiefs developing even In Russia proper.
Fearing the total collapse of the State and possible Civil War the KGB, Military and anti-corruption Hardliners within the party ally. Backed by the KGB Pugo seizes political control while loyal military units, also backed by special services; eliminate the regional strongmen and want away Republic leaders.
Such an uneasy alliance cannot last and the military eventually take sole control, allow they do allow the state mechanisms to remain in place, implicitly promising the return of civilian control once the situation stabilizes.
A long 12 years of solid but uninspiring military rule ensues, however increasing economic pressures and low level social unrest eventually convinced Stavka that long term military primacy was untenable. Control was eventually agreed to be moved to the KGB upon assurances of special priviliges and funding for the armed forces.
The KGB reacted to power by tightening the screws upon civil society, but more reformist minded agents recognised the danger in repeating the mistakes of the Tikhonov era. Economic reform, which had started under the military but stalled, was prioritised; leading to "Bird Cage" reforms which had proved successful as per the Chinese model.
Finally power was formally agreed to be handed back to the CPSU, which had existed in a skeletal form during the previous 18 years, rubber stamping military and KGB decisions. However the KGB kept a "supervisor" role, limiting the Presidiums powers to make substantive political changes.
