@Depresseanpaul @EllStats that's also a large portion of Labour and Lib Dems. That's the problem. Engaging ordinary people in politics again, starting at a local level, is the way forward imo...it's not going to happen with any of the parties though.
@LeftieStats My Austrian father in law is 100 this month, his family were wiped out by the Nazis, he escaped via Kinder Transport to the UK. This astonishes and horrifies him.
@EllStats Of course the poor and most working class will absolutely not feel any benefit in the next 4 years. We have austerity which will annihilate them, and if miraculously there is 'growth', it won't benefit them...it will just make the rich richer.
@EllStats That are so shocked and surprised at the lack of integrity from Starmer, who has consistently shown he lies, will say anything to gain power and turn on a sixpence once he has it. These people are bloody idiots.
@breeallegretti What surprises me is they expect starmer et Al to behave with integrity π€£π€£ just look at his history man, he's blasted away pretty much every promise hes ever made and you're shocked and surprised?! FFS
@RichardJMurphy God I'm so sick of smoke and mirrors, lies and gaslighting in the way this country, and the world, is run. We are totally totally screwed...
@LeftieStats The manifesto was utter bollox anyway, but it seems it is this reporter's view rather than fact that all 5 have been ditched...not that I'd expect them to keep to any of their vague beigey missions anyway, they are a bunch of crooks. Just not sure this is news, yet.
@LeftieStats Centrism enables fascism. USA are just 1 election in front of us. It will be the UK next GE because these idiots will absolutely send us there.
