The British Labour Party have engaged Barack Obama's most influential campaign adviser, during two presidential victories to help its 2015 election campaign. David Axelrod, who recently advised Muhammadu Buhari's campaign team, has been given the title of senior strategic adviser and told the Guardian that Labour's political and economic analysis was similar to the central themes deployed in Obama's successful re-election campaign. According to the Guardian the conservatives are now panic-stricken.
