Labour is doing almost as much damage as Reform would do… nobody asked for all this nanny state shit…
Still, emphasis on the word almost. The key here is to swap out Labour candidates, not lose to reform next election.
Tell that to Andy Burnham.
We're not a purely two party state, like America, that requires changing the Democrats from within.
Labour is a captured organisation. The PLP is filled with authoritarians and Friends of Israel. And the PLP has the majority of power within the party. The effort required to change it from within would be better spent in the already established Green party and establishing Your Party.
The left can abandon Labour, as it abandoned the left in the 90s.
The UK Green Party of England and Wales? Currently they have 4 commons and 2 lords. They at least had the sensibility to ask Jill Stein to stand down, but they also endorse leaving NATO which is really fucking stupid.
Your Party 2025 is just a joke honestly, I'm surprised they got more seats than Lord Buckethead.
Ah well, might as well just lie down and give up then I guess.
