    I’m so glad to see someone else saying this. On the left, we seem so concerned with our ‘perfect’ candidature that we lose elections and let Tory whack jobs run the country.

    Let’s get Starmer into power as he’ll be a damn sight better than Sunak and then we can work within the party to move things even further left.

      Let’s get Starmer into potter

      This wasn’t the ending I expected but I’m all up for seeing this. Would have to do it after the watershed though. To keep the children safe, you understand?

      > Starmer gets into power

      > Everything in the UK stays business as usual.

      > Starmer doesn’t do anything about it because he’s basically a moderate tory

      > Tories win all elections for the next 20 years anyway.

      Edit: I am glad you agree

        I massively disagree with everything you have said after your first full stop. Anyone who thinks Starmer is equivalent to Boris or Rishi can’t have been paying much attention to quite how horrific those two have been.

        So far left you’d prefer the more right wing party in power.
