The hard left of Labour live on a different planet, they'd rather have an Arthur Scargill type or Corbyn mark 2 in charge. Labour can't win an election being a leftist party as there wont be anywhere near enough swing voters voting for them. A leader like Starmer is the most realistic option to take power away from the Tories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l444ry Posted 7 July 2022 Share Posted 7 July 2022 (edited) Stinking Tories. This is the third time in succession that they've ditched or lost their Leader mid term just to save their scrawny necks. The whole lot need to be consigned to the rubbish bin of history. Just watch as all those lily livered Tory voters start jumping back onto the ship of this corrupt bunch of cretins that should have gone out of fashion with high buttoned boots and the Penny Farthing.

The Labour Party and socialism have an uneasy relationship at best. Blair was about as far from socialism as Ken Clarke. What you need to realise is that this isn't a football match - it's a system whereby governments are supposed to work to promote the well-being of all British citizens. An incompetent like Johnson attracts the worst kind of individual to office. I see no one in that Party who has the qualities to lead the country out of its current shitshow condition. A person of extraordinary capacity is needed or a government which includes ministers from all parties - i.e. a coalition. One party turnaround government never achieves real progress. All that happens is that dogma and ego transcend effective government. You can deceive yourself all you like; put on the blinkers and loudly sing to yourself, but the reality is that the country is in a mess and has been taken there by Conservatism. All you need to evince that are the words 'Food Banks' - for the sixth most wealthy country in the world. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What pressure would the new leader be under? None from his own party, they have a huge majority and know they have tanked in the polls. Any pressure from the opposition would be dismissed as politicking. Unless the new leader surges in the polls instantly they would be mad to call a snap election. They will just spend the next 2 years arse licking the electorate in the hope of staying in power. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
