you can't do anything these days

Labour-style sticker that says "fuck you vote Labour"

I can't believe this strategy didn't work

Has anybody done a nationwide uniform swing projection yet? Yes, I know that uniform swing projections based on an individual by-election are complete bollocks. I want to see one anyway. I think it would be extremely funny.

...And Brexit. Brexit goes to the core of everything that's wrong with Blue Labour. Everyone knows it's failed far-right clusterfuck. Demographics mean a pro-EU majority of 8 million now – with 83% of young voters for rejoin. No progressive party can ignore that and still have a believable narrative

This has me crying in real life 😂😂😂

LMFAO I LITERALLY KNOW EXACTLY WHY THIS HAPPENED AND I CAN CONFIRM TO YOU IT'S ENTIRELY 100% ON THE PART OF WHOMEVER PROGRAMMED THEIR PHONE SYSTEM THIS WAY 👇🏽🧵

This is amazing.

These people have read Nineteen Eighty-Four as an instruction manual on how to pervert language. They want the phrase "free speech" to become meaningless so that there is no language to use in defence of actual free speech.

Anyone on the left who wasn’t actively involved from 2015-19 needs to know what’s coming.

1, they’re going to throw multiple, often contradictory lies at the wall to see what sticks. Polanski will be simultaneously weak and strong, timid and aggressive, passive and dictatorial, old fashioned and

Labour MP Ian Byrne: "The lines from the PM and Cabinet today essentially labelling the Green Party as extremist is appalling, desperate and frankly embarrassing.

"It also makes very clear that the leadership has zero understanding of where it has been going wrong."

Very excited to have found a place at the airport that has “chef-inspired menus.” Love to eat food inspired by… the idea of making food.

I thought a Green victory would maybe trigger a moment of reflection to walk back from what is going to be later classified as protogenocidal speech.

But no, they're saying, if they can't win then they'll drive the country into the fascist abyss.

This is pretty bold stuff from somebody who got 552 more votes than Sir Oink A-Lot.

This is turning into an absolute all-timer Friday.

sorry british media, sectarianism is OUR word

The current argument of the British right is that Muslims turned out in "blocs" with "family voting" to cast their ballots for a party led by a gay Jewish man, and this shows that multiculturalism has failed, voting is "sectarian" and we are in a crisis.

Hmmmmmm.

I always wonder how sincere the people who call themselves "originalists" are. Any that are sincere can't fail to accept this. Any that blow it off are just using "originalism" as cover for their own objectives.

The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

Starmer with a banner calling him Matt Goodwin, reform UK candidate

Keith getting bodied by bbc news

Labour talked about going after the Greens and immigrants when they lost.
Reform talked about 'anti woke' and 'islamists' when they lost.
The Greens talked about 'everybody' when they won.

But sure, Keir, it's the Greens who are tearing the coutnry apart.

Imagine devoting your entire career to selling the idea that the British public hates wokery and is clamouring for radical right wing populism, only to then be defeated in an actual election by the most left wing possible coalition of politicians and activists in the country.

It's got to hurt

As the analysis starts of the Gorton and Denton result, I wanted to flag some aspects that my experience yesterday suggests are being over or under-played

(Caveats - I went to Longsight, Gorton and Denton town centres and spoke to as many people as I could, but it was mostly during the working day)

The endorsement from Galloway probably cost the Greens a few votes among people who still remember who he is.

This is not a reasoned political response. Labour has spent two years making all the voting groups who backed the Greens feel unwelcome and unheard, and now attacks them for daring to back someone else. They believe Labour isn’t listening and Starmer seems determined to prove them right

Starmer is reading off the exact same cards as Reform. He isn't even smart enough to modify the language. The incorrect use of "sectarian" to mean Muslim is Reform verbiage. He's too stupid to paper over the bigotry. The only question is where the cards are written? Florida or Moscow?
