If there is a road near to where you live that is seeing lots of accidents etc because the speed limit is too high, then you would campaign to lower it for *everyone* because the issue is structural. "Well, YOU can just drive slower" would be a stupid response, as it is with tax.
I wish the far-left would stop trying to make out Corbyn's 2019 result was anything other than a coalescing of an anti-Boris, anti-Brexit vote. He stacked up votes in Remain areas, and was 80 seats behind Boris's Tory's making it the worst electoral defeat since 1935.
Keir Starmer, "We've only ever won three majorities.. 1945.. 1997.. 2024 go down as three as the most successful elections in the history of the Labour party"
Not a fan of Corbyn, but interesting to note that in 2024 Starmer got 600,000 fewer votes than Corbyn did in 2019
So Starmer's claim to "success" is based on fewer people voting for Labour under him than under Corbyn
@patrick_hurley You could say the same about most candidates in most leadership contests. It seems that most of the support around Andy Burnham is mostly 'vibes'.
Joe Rogan: “I’m confused. I can’t believe we went to this war. When we started bombing Iran I was like this can’t be true… Supposedly, they’re trying to stop the terrorists”
Theo Von: “That’s crazy though if you’re the fucking terrorists! If you wanna stop them stand in front of the fucking mirror”
@RoryStewartUK@JohnCleese Not sure saying 'but Christians are bad too' to a man who literally wrote and starred in Life of Brian is the way to go here Rory.
@pureMetatron False equivalency - those celebrating the death of figures on the right are fringe figures in politics of the left, where as those celebrating death on the right are in key positions of leadership and influence in the establishment of the party. Not the same.
Public Service Announcement: #TACO won't and can't apply this time.
The Iranian regime won't/can't let things lie after having had their leader killed, particularly as new leader is the son of said killed leader. Have to demonstrate cost and deterrence. Hormuz will close.

@stoolpresidente Got a lot to say about a regional mayor, but you've been awful quiet on the, oh I don't know, killings in the streets, foreign wars, and Epstein files cover up though.
To clarify: I wasn’t calling anyone a “fake citizen” because they’re from Puerto Rico. I live in Puerto Rico, and I love Puerto Rico. I have used my platform to support Puerto Rico time and time again and will always do so.
But if you’re publicly criticizing ICE who are doing their job and openly hating on America, I’m going to speak on it. Period. That’s the same reason I called out Hunter Hess.
If you benefit from a country and the platform it gives you, but publicly disrespect it at the same time, that’s what I mean by being a fake citizen.
And I agree love is more powerful than hate. Love America.
