[TheNuthatch]

A chat thread for those who don't like this Labour government.

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Yes interesting times. That means an election to replace her as Deputy Leader of the party? Starmer must be shitting himself.

Yes telegraph always gets sneered at but their articles have been pretty good in the last few years

..SKY News

It’s not going to help Labour to have a big change in the top team from what people voted for / the party hardly likely to elect someone that’ll appeal to disenchanted centre voters for that spot…

I was just about to post the same absent.
Beth Rigby said reshuffle underway, so could be today.

Please let Bigot Phillipson be removed. But she probably won't 🙄

As pointed out by BBC, Deputy Leader isn’t automatically Deputy PM - Gordon Brown overlooked Harriet Harman for that position.

You know that the PLP and Unions will vote for an Ultra-Zealot from the far left of the Party for Deputy and we’ll be subject to their infighting and drama for the next 3-4 years.

Bring it on 😆

I hope so 🤞🤞🤞

Bloody hell long resignation letter. Blah. Blah. Blah.

Reeves to remain in post 🙄

Conference will be interesting 🤣🤣
Major rifts coming up, unions flexing muscle while Starmer stands blinking like a hamster
The comms/PR will ramp up from Monday ie "nothing to see here it's all going great"

How will she pay the mortgage on the Hive bolt hole?

She'd be quite funny on I'm a celeb? She would get a few quid for that 😂

Or the money + fine she owes HMRC?

She doesn't give a shit how I find the money to pay VAT for my child's education so quite frankly, as she earns (or did earn) a hell of a lot more than me, I don't give a shit now about her.

Looking forward to it 😉

Me too and will now definitely be tuning in

This is genius!

Could be awkward. It could be the, 'Don't call me comrade, comrade' conference.

🤣

Should imagine Hove could be on the market soon

This is a genuine Q: has there been a more chaotic start to a new government? When there has been a change of party?

I confess to having a touch of ‘buyer’s remorse’. In the sense that I did, and do, think she should go, but now I’m thinking of the long tail of derision that we’ll be missing out on had she stayed.

She’ll be back though, even if not at her previous heights of office. So we can look forward to some ‘straight talking’ 🙄 from our Ange in the future.

Well, she's on the outside of the car pissing in now. Her podcast rounds will be interesting.

Looks like there may be a TRIP Emergency Pod incoming.

It’ll be fun to watch AC try and defend this!
