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.

I do wish people would stop with the Starmer conspiracy theories.

  1. There don’t appear to be any facts behind any of them.
  2. That’s the practice of the left. It makes me cringe to see others’ copying it.

I don’t like Starmer or any others of Labour’s band of incompetents. But they should be judged on true facts, not fantastical rumours, made up statistics and the like - just as I wanted the Tories to be judged.

I appreciate that many on the left lied their heads off about the Tories, and many leftists still do (not least on MN), but I’d hope the rest of us can be better than that.

I've reported them. It's all AI tripe. They're posting over multiple baords.

That bloody woman! Angela Rayner's ignorance, arrogance and entitlement knows no bounds!
It's the Mail, but other outlets are carrying the story

Rayner is taking us for a ride: Weeks after she quit in disgrace, her boyfriend is ferried around by taxpayer-funded bodyguards in £80k BMW also paid for by you | Daily Mail Online

Yep, good ol' Ange all over the papers again for all the wrong reasons.
And they want her back? Hmm

ANTIHEROTAYLORSWIFT. After their second post of sensational twaddle I searched their name and they have quite a number of posts across mumsnet, all the same shite.

They did didn't they 😆 I'm not sure how they haven't cottoned on to the fact that they are in an incredibly small minority.

I would love to see her back.

Talk about a poison pill / IED - surely she would take out Starmer once and for all, because you can bet she still has some outstanding ‘housekeeping’…

Of course it's not. Only in the MN world does anyone actually support Labour + Starmer.

There’s some awful garbage being spouted on MN about the ECHR and how withdrawal (or presumably just repeal of the HRA) would doom us.

We’ll all be at the mercy of the rack and the thumbscrew, apparently.

I despair at the low-grade twaddle that passes for left-wing argument now. I suspect that’s why dishonesty - from Labour, about Labour, and about its opponents - is so prevalent on the left nowadays: if they had only their own arguments to make they’d get nowhere. This government is proof of that.

Have they not seen Jack Straw and David Blunkett have discussed leaving the ECHR recently?! Or is that an inconvenient fact?

TBF I think (the few more sensible and realistic) Labour voices are talking about partial suspension rather than withdrawal.

But I agree. They’re basically the same thing and some posters’ and Labour politicians’ unthinking, blind allegiance to the ECHR and its court is just them putting their fingers in their ears, closing their eyes and shouting “Can’t hear or see the problem!”.

Wow, my posts have been removed from this thread? Why when it’s a thread for those who don’t like the Labour government? Clearly there are posters on this thread who like this Labour government.

Ana Boulter says it as it is and yet any mention of her is reported and deleted. Why?

It's because you're spamming the place with YouTube videos.
