Chimpzilla

Yeh she is toast

I don’t think most of the public know’s who she is

Sounds like she is down to her final weeks.

Blair’s time came and went. He didn’t leave office because he wanted to. He left because the wheels were really starting to fall off his approach to politics.

Or you end up with 6 of them

FPTP plus centralisation has allowed parties outside the big two to be entirely unserious. It’s going to take time to clean that up

Let’s see what happens. Labour alternatives are all partly problematic

There is massive discontent with Starmer’s Labour in London. If Labour loses their London stronghold they can’t win a national election. I think it’s all about if the Greens can coalesce discontent around themselves

Most commentary from mainstream publications is utter garbage. What passes for thought from most of the commentators also passes just as well through a dogs backside

President Macron:
“We were very naive to leave our public space to social media networks controlled by US or Chinese companies that don’t share our interests and not interested in survival of our democracies.”

"You should never overestimate the extent to which the BBC changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage, other far right extremists and the Tufton Street junktanks, while shutting out progressive voices."

– George Monbiot

It’s interesting they took a step back towards their own voters and then five steps back

Their walk back towards sanity and their own voters lasted all of 24 hours

Starmer to end asylum ‘golden ticket’ of resettlement and family reunion rights People granted asylum will have to earn right to invite family in plan charities call ‘straight from populist playbook’

People recognised as refugees fleeing persecution & granted the right to live in the UK to be denied the right to be joined safely by their spouse & children.

This Labour govt is a moral void, a stinking darkness, an empty hollow of cowardice & contempt. #r4today www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Hartlepool is infamous for hanging a chimp as a French spy (short, hairy and couldn’t speak English so of course French) in the Napoleonic conflict.

What happens to Starmer’s foreign policy at that point

I thought it would be this bad. I just didn’t think it would happen this fast

How do you sit down put together a policy like this and then look surprised when it blows up in side 24 hours of being released?

Not the result Labour would have hoped for

How is Hungary still part of the EU?

At least it wasn’t a loyalty oath to the White House

The problem is that streeting is completely untrustworthy as well.

Less inspired and more copied. Yes many communist groups weaponised this history, but the US laws on racial segregation were copied. The US was also very influential on Mussolini. U can criticise but u need to take on board how influential the authoritarian streak of the US has been & still is

The problem is Labour are also falling apart, while the Tories look to be full on collapsing. A lot of the Tory vote could go to Reform

Fascism borrowed very heavily from the United States, esp on ‘racial hygiene’ and political violence. The extreme anti democratic left were always an authoritarian movement with social justice as a justification.

But what happens if the federal government keeps demanding subsidies for the federal government from California and other blue states?

How tech lords and populists changed the rules of power Digital moguls and strongman leaders are more than disrupters of the old liberal order. Together they seek to sweep it away, writes Giuliano da Empoli

"In Europe, the technocrats who govern [...] share the same incomprehension at the offensive they are facing. They [fail to] acknowledge that Trump and the tech bros’ goal is to impose regime change on this side of the Atlantic as well."

It’s 4% but we lost something like another 2% between 2016 and 2020 due to the uncertainty.

As long as the old system gets out of the way. If as eg Refom gets in an blocks any change we are in really serious trouble
