Make no mistake, UK has been neck deep in hubris, fell for several con merchants, in dire debt, bitter, exhausted and finally, hopefully learned its lesson. Never trust a Tory! As for the hard right also getting a foothold, that's just a fact of life these days; everywhere. We're with you USA!🫰

Absolutely! It will be a temporary measure though. If he gets another term he would replace the system of life peers as nominated by PMs. he has said as much. Bozo put about 50 new ones in there. For radical changes KS has to balance the numbers in the short term.

Perfect wouldn't have got them elected. Starmer is playing a blinder. Just watch. UK has a £3.8trillion debt and a polarised population. Starmer had to be realistic in his pledges and play from the centre of court. Give them time.

Change is gonna come!
US friends!
A landslide for Labour in UK. Imagine if Trump was thrashed by the Dems in November!
That's how we're feeling right now after 14 years of Tory devastation.
I'm in festive mood though the national polarisation & the 🌐battle goes on!

I don't relish playing into the hands of 'don't knows', red unicorn dreamers, near Reform voters, centrist haters, JC cultists & ppl too myopic to get that he had to make the party electable, has realistic short term aims, is taking on a £3.8 trillion debt and is a steady Eddie! Unfunny joke, sorry.

You're knocking the only chance we have to get the Cons out. Under our current electoral system Lab IS our only chance so why not see how they measure up rather than adding to the gloom? I've plenty of reasons not to agree with such unhelpful negativity and could defend KS with reason and vigour.

Red Tories is rubbish. They serve only themselves, their donors and their kind. I do hope you're right about the change of heart though.

What's your alternative?? Another Corbyn scenario?? 80 seat majority for the Cons for another 5 years?

Deliberate! Happened before during the EU elections before the latest one. Boundary changes, identity cards, EU Referendum gerrymandering. The Tories are crooks, always were, always will be.

US friends, wish the UK luck! Since 2016 we've had parallel socio/political🌐quakes. Brexit was a dry run for Trump, bank rolled & fuelled by the same war room monsters like Steve Bannon plus. The neolib disaster capitalist fuse was lit by Thatcher &Reagan. We share the same potential rise or fall!

It would have been good if people checked my answer out where I clearly stated you got me wrong. Instead you got X number appreciation for what you thought I meant. Asking for a friend....

Yes the class/caste likeness didn't escape me but I doubt if emulation has anything to do with it. They have their own moral/political compass. The Conservatives on the other hand have totally bought into the aggressive neoliberal heist of the worst iteration of Capitalism as playing out globally.

I never said that. Of course the Indian contingent is a small part of the festering Tory stew! I absolutely agree with your final statement. Of course they're happy to have representation for potential voters. My good friend is Indian. She totally agrees about the general tendency to lean right.

Why are so many Indians so right wing??? Priti Patel and Suella Braveman were even worse than Sunak. Modi just won another term in India. Why????

Depressing. Fraudage knows where the young go and that they're particularly easy to hypnotise. He is born to be a cancer. There should be a brave youth icon/pop star/actor/sports personality who is prepared to counter him on TikTok with the same fervour and aplomb!

As with the UK Rick, your whole system needs to be overhauled, root and branch! And yes! Lots of people here haven't been as excited (to see the Cons crash) since they were six the day before Christmas!! 😊

Good one! I never heard that before. Hi Rick! Back from my day off from social media. The next 48 hours will be well busy! ps your Supreme court is an affront to democracy. Starting with the lifetime appointment and ending with Presidential nomination it is not lots better than Xi Jinping's order!!

Good analysis! Funny, I can't bring myself to be sorry for him. He doesn't know it but he is cut from the same cloth as some of the worst of them. His pre election attack line at Labour is manipulative and dishonest. It reveals who he really is at core.

Thanks for getting me over the 300 followers mark. Only 7000 to go to catch up with twitter which I left due to the stink of Musk. I post on anything and everything from a British perspective..sorry😉 Hopefully the humour will cross over as does the abysmal likeness between Trumpian/Tory insanity!
