Abstract
This article discusses the state of labour history and political history in Britain. Despite a continuing and sizeable output, it argues the former is very close to deserving an obituary, not unconnected to something of a methodolological malaise in the latter. Political history is not unhealthy, but out of fashion. Paradoxically, debate about history within the Labour party has been rife. Not only in its recent "crisis," but in the Blue Labour Project from 2010 that sought to rethink Labour's past, policy and vision after Blair. It explores Blue Labour through thinkers like Stears, Glasman and the journal Renewal. The gaps between current historical practice and its uses in Labour politics are revealing for both.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
