They're vile

Seriously, the Labour brand was taken over 30 years ago by the senior servants of the capitalist class. We partially wrestled it back from them for a few years but they prized our fingers from it and now they've locked it up in Fort Knox for ever.

They died. They did died 30 years ago. Really, they did. Died. Did.

Do you know who else made out the disabled to be a burden on society?
The Nazis.

What people? Starmer/Reeves or the candidates, or the members, or potential voters? Really confused what you mean.

Workers don't have the time to attend a conference once a year, that's for political nerds, not the mass of ordinary people. Continuous, online, in-person involvement with short time commitments and multiple participation options are essential.

Simply rename Privatization, Profitization.

And it is all explained without needing any words.

In the future people will see WW2 as a chance for the world to change.

But in the end the Nazis just turned their strategy to business instead of war.

And now they win by playing Monopoly instead of Risk.

Well, we could change the system so elections are about electing just one branch of government at a time. In fact, for a healthy democracy, it's pretty essential.

I too was most offended when we all (Labour voters) voted for a party led by Jeremy Corbyn and he promptly resigned. This is the consequence of the distortions of the First Past of the Post system. We never keep the representatives we voted for unless they "win" under the distorted system.

If they don't oppose the EU and NATO and if they don't support trans rights, they're not a socialist.

That's what they said 30 years ago.

What's the plan?

Do you know, I saw the last words on the link, "says Polly..." and I thought, surely not?

I fear there is deep truth here.

The reason Trump so desperately wants to increase NATO spending is because NATO weapons can only be bought from approved companies and 80% of them are in the USA, and their owners donate to him.

It's just another scam.

Personality politics is the go-to politics of the bourgeoisie. Discard all celebrities. Let's start talking about class and power.

What's the new party offering that the Socialist Party isn't?

This is beginning to sound like a top-down party, if its celebrities have already been selected from established trade union and petite-bourgeois bureaucracies. I would hope a new party would say out with the old names and open up vast opportunities for new, unknown names as representatives.

... the proletariat need to embrace the rapidity of technology where policy can be made in a day. The Bourgeoisie are way ahead of us. Our protectionism and careful proceduralism keeps the left small.

Transform Party are quite good but need to make member involvement in making policy proposals immediate and unrestricted with rapid voting mechanisms and online access. But they're stuck in conventional decision-making and long infrequent meetings.

... left parties should seek equality and fairness in society so must be open-access within their own organisations. The benefits of openness significantly outweigh the risks. Whatever happened to the Harmony Party, for example? Never took off, did it? Too many restrictions.
