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.
No. You don't get to say this is ok because it's Labour. This is authoritarian power grabs. Nobody voted for this because this was never shared with the public.
Labour, Tories and Reform all need to be cast into the wilderness for decades over what's going on right now.
The last dude in this thread to say basically the same thing at least had to balls to name other options and all they could come up with was the Anti-NATO party for one and the party which is literally just Corbynn and his buddy Sultana (1 seat) for the other.
