    The current Labour government believes it can revive the economy via incantation if it yells Growth 3 times in the mirror at midnight

      That is a perfect way to put it, “Change”, was their slogan.

      The only thing they’ve changed is sex = birth-assigned gender. Cheers guys yeah that makes my life as transfemme much easier 👍

        If I were British I’d struggle to imagine voting labour again. Like what credibility could they possibly ever claim

          That’s how most people feel right now, which means Reform (Fascists) are winning since they were 2nd. So that’s only gonna make things worse.

            Reform aka Russia were something like 5th. Nowhere near 2nd. But the 2nd-placed centre right party appears to be collapsing and most media seems obsessed with flattering the Russians’ leader and not reporting Nathan Gill or Nadia Sass, so now they lead the opinion polls despite their local government leaders descending into farce.

            And then the shit eating “centrists” will say it’s because the left wasn’t willing to compromise and should have gone more right
