Wanting people to be able to live on wages?

Nothing wring with people making money. It's the differences between the haves and the have nots thats the total problem in this country.

What you want is not

And immigration isn't the biggest issue holding the country back

No, because the SDP merged with the Liberals. Remember, Mrs Thatcher once described herself as a Liberal. That's why we got the weird coalition with the Tories where some of the Orange Book Lib Dems seemed more gung ho about making cuts than the Tories themselves.
 
So they evolved then.

Not really. They are still a weird alliance of social democrats and liberals (in the traditional British sense)
