What it says on the tin - a survey here to tell Labour what they're doing wrong:

Done, probably futile as suspect the menz will throw away replies they don't like

Thank you all for doing this. I finally got the guts up to discuss this issue on Facebook under my real name yesterday and was immediately met with shouts of transphobe and calls to "calm down". I don't know how other people have the bravery to keep on facing that - my heart and my respect goes out to them.

I gave my 'gender' as Other: Gender-free. Was tempted to add "My sex is female" but decided not to. Had been careful not to say "we" anywhere, but always "women".

I suggested putting some fucking grownups in charge. And that I did not refer to birth date by saying so.

Also agreed that the scale of problems Labour have are such that it's rearranging deckchairs to ask about policy. Their issues lie so, so much deeper. They despise their traditional core supporters. Do they imagine those supporters are unaware?

Fucking hell that felt good.

Its open until Sunday and they do say 'don't hold back'.

Having read the latest call for gulags by one of their MPs, I don't think I'll bother.

Gibbonsgibbonsgibbons · 18/02/2020 20:56

Bahaha thank you Wine

Mossyrock · 18/02/2020 20:55

Thanks for this. They barely deserve my time but it was cathartic at least!

Glenthebattleostrich · 18/02/2020 20:24

Thanks. I did enjoy that.

I said, think what little OJ would do, and don’t do it.

DeRigueurMortis · 18/02/2020 19:48

Well that was cathartic Grin

No punches pulled here.....

Michelleoftheresistance · 18/02/2020 19:39

Done. It'll be binned on sight of course.

DidoLamenting · 18/02/2020 19:30

what one thing could we change to make us electable

I said go back to Blairism.

Also said to another question "ditch Corbyn Corbynistas and Momentum.

Honestly agentnully, I don't reckon they'll listen at all, so I went for just getting a few rants down for the record

Ooh what's the future of legal gender survey?
Is that still open?

noblegiraffe · 18/02/2020 19:15

Why are they only consulting members and campaigners? People who previously voted for them but didn’t this time would surely be a more valuable source of information.

All done.

agentnully · 18/02/2020 18:51

I don't know where to start with this. There's simply too much to write.

Would it be very lazy of me to ask for a bit of help to make my voice heard to the best effect?

Catting · 18/02/2020 18:46

Wow! That was a nice, cleansing rant!

Indeed! That question about "what one thing could we change to make us electable" - one thing?! In their dreams could one thing fix the issues with Labour!

If they really don’t know, then they need to go home...

DidoLamenting · 18/02/2020 18:21

It's labouring under the delusion it lost because of ineffective campaigning. It was the policies and Corbyn- not the delivery of the message.
