UK Labour should take this as a grave warning and change course immediately.

I completely concur. Talk about a harbinger eating your own face.

But of course, they won't. They're leaning right in both economic and social policy. It's awful.

Should have called it Thatcheresque for the local flair.

That would require the Republicans to have knowledge of history outside their own country.

The republicans have knowledge of history inside the US?

I have the feeling they mostly believe in a fairy tale version of US history from what they peddle.

If a US Republican is praising your policy, it's a bad policy. If they call it (🤢🤮) Reganesque, then it's a disastrous one.

Especially for fucking Labour.

And he didn't even have the situational awareness to call it Thatcheresque instead.

So disappointed in Labour right now. I was never a huge fan of Corbyn himself, although I agreed with a lot of his views.

I was also quite hopeful about Starmer as a leader, as I was impressed with his his work in opposing Brexit and the government's attempts to force through changes without proper parliamentary scrutiny. But now...

I've voted Labour all my life, but I feel politically homeless right now. Everything they have done or said in the last year or so has made me less inclined to support them. And that's despite the fact that the Tories absolutely, positively MUST be got rid of asagdmfp.

I live in a reasonably safe Lib Dem seat, so it doesn't really make much difference what I do, but it's frustrating nonetheless. I'd like to be able to go into the polling booth and proudly vote Labour because I believe in them. Not right now though.
