One might suggest that if the right wing press is going after Labour for being "socialists", it might behove them to not alienate everyone to the left of Michael Portillo.

I just don't buy that the right wing MSM is "monstering" this government for trying to cut disability benefits, demonise trans people, and attack immigrants.

ok

The replies to this from Starmer supporters are unmoored from reality.

The *only* response to this is all the other governors drop out.

I know a rascal when I see one, and this is 100% rascal

Young men are the second most liberal group in the country after young women.

Sure, and if we were building a new country in the late C18/early C19, maybe we could do the same. 😄

I also say this as a Midlander - it is silly to suggest Parliament should move away from the financial, media, and diplomatic capital of the country. It is simply not serious.

The allergy that we have to spending any money on anything.

Maybe there are "better" ways of spending money, but we don't do that either.

The perfect analogy for the UK as a whole. It's crumbling from decades of underinvestment, and now we have to spend silly money on it if we want it to work.

"why are you always shitting on dems instead of the guys actually doing this" when the firemen sit around with their dicks out watching my house burn down I don't go yell at the fire!!!

It was only a matter of time before the pro wrestling fans of Bluesky and the Star Trek Deep Space 9 fans of Bluesky looked at each other and realized that 90% of their interests overlap
