CW: “The very idea of Brexit is unworkable.”
@sadgrove @[email protected] @UKLabour @guyverhofstadt
Were #starmer to rule in #singleMarket and #rejoinEU the UK would risk returning yet another #kipperTory govt that would resume rowing us away across the #atlantic toward some mythological imagined #atlantis #rightWing purity
Luckily #labour can do counting.....
-
Remind us - which party was in power whilst those "problems had been brewing over a number of months" ?
I am enjoying this 3 way fight amongst the rump #kipperTory party between the 3 tribes
-
Well we must disagree on your hope- IMO there is more chance of another #kipperTory administration than a hung parliament - so I am hoping #labour sweep to a landslide
I think people who criticise #starmer from the left will be surprised at how #labour govern under his leadership - he is not #blair
A hung parliament with a Lab/LibDem majority would not be a disaster - but not something that can be engineered
#labour will not deal with #snp who will retain most of #scotland
-
The #revolution eats itself..... the #kipperTory #reignOfTerror is upon us
How they must laugh in #france - they are 230 years ahead of us!
-
We do have an #opposition to #toriesOut - #labour are over 20% + ahead in the polls and have led every single poll for over 13 months

The current #labour prty may not be to you taste, but it wiull be very different from the #braverman & co #kipperTory mess we have now

#folkMemory of the current #kipperTory era will surely overwhelm that of any previous one
The #extremism, the #lies, the #amorality we have seen since 2016, based on the 6 years of grim #austerity for the poor that preceeded it have no precedent in English history
-
#starmer "catastrophic" as in 20%+ ahead in the polls? Sounds pretty catastrophic for the #toriesOut to me...... when he took over in April 2020 #labour were over 20% behind in the polls & it was widely predicted that gap would not be bridged before the next election ushered in yet another #kipperTory parliament

I think you mean that is the tyranny possible with a large majority - #FPTP merely makes that more likely (but not #Scotland has a partial list system but still #SNP dominate there)
But this current #kipperTory party is way more toxic than any past administration even tho the electoral system is unchanged. Getting rid of them is politically very possible (=likely) but getting rid of #FPTP is I think not acheivable - the party in power is always a current beneficiary
-
Well it benefits the bank accounts of those running that country, those who win contracts for the work involved, and the appeal of the #kipperTory prty to their core voters.
I suspect those are the primary reasons for the policy, not the rather dubious proposition it will result in fewer undocumented UKresidents - for which the remedies would be regulation & maybe ID cards within the UK, not indulging in people-trafficking ourselves
-
#starmer is a lawyer - I expect him to make amendments that are not easily reversed that protect our democracy from amoral actors like the #kipperTory elite
-
Not sure I care what Rees-Mogg says about anything in private - his public pronouncements are utter tripe or worse - an extreme example of the #mediocre #arrogant #publicSchool product that shaped the dreadful #kipperTory mess we are all suffering under
As for #braverman - the worst kind of panderer to the base instincts of #nativists who would applaud #enochPowell and his #riversOfBlood given half a chance
-
@VerityKalcev @kathryn @Spatz @Medwayquine
A well deserved knighthood for #ChrisBryant - one who skewered the #johnson govt on regularly without ever descending to abuse
An example to colleagues & representative of the serious weight on #labour benches compared to the #kipperTory benches opposite since the those pointing out the stupidity of #brexit were culled in 2019
-
Interesting to consider difference between current #kipperTory party & what we might have under #pr
We'd not have a wide party all the way from cautious supporters of status quo to wilds of #englishNationalism - instead we'd have parliament including smaller parties
like #reform (nativists), maybe pro-business party and socially conservative party (possibly with an islamic flavour)Each smaller party would be more rigidly centred on a core & fight for that core
-
i think the #toriesOut are now worried about pleasing their base - or rather the #kipperTory end of it - they seem to have given up on the centre-right in favour of keeping #reform from eating their lunch
All of which means they are almost certain to lose the #nextGE assuming #labour do not mess up
-
Well I agree the #UKeconomy are getting worse - and I think the other shoe has yet to drop on that - things are rather worse than they look
This #kipperTory party lost its mind when faced with a threat on its right flank - instead of facing down the threat & sticking to the centre-Right - ie mirroring what #labour does when faced with #farLeft entryists (excluding that #corbynite failed experiment) - it sucked the #kippers into their soul & their reason departed
-
Few - I predict Reform will lose many deposits come the #nextGE
It is rather juvenile to lambast those who live in less prosperous parts of #England for a #kipperTory mess largely caused by #homeCountiesTories

I see lots of comments saying much the same
Q1: Was the Blair/Brown period a net plus or net minus when compared to the alternative, more #Major style #toryGovt?
Q2: Will #starmer #labourGovt be better or worse than more #sunak #kipperTory rule?
Q3: From this point, at max 2 yrs before #nextGE, what exactly can be done to alter course?
I understand reasoned criticism of #starmer & co for being too bland or deferring to #nativism - but they are #neverTory

Well I think you will find gorgeous #GeorgeGalloway opposes the government - that does not make him credible (especially not after the cat act)
There are in the UK as a whole only two political games in town - #kipperTory or #Labour
it is credible that either will form a majority govt after the next election - which one do you prefer?
