John Smith became leader of the Labour Party in 1992 and died in 1994. But if not? No Blair and Brown rise to power? Would be able to beat the Torries? What would do different from Blair and Brown?

He would have won in 1997, no doubt, but with nothing like the majority of Tony. Spending would not have followed Tory plans as NuLab did in OTL, but with the economy so strong I doubt it would have mattered.

He probably would have had Blair as Home Secretary and even Brown as Chancellor causing trouble enough to force him into early retirement soon after his 2001 victory.
