They got off to a really bad start and it's just gone downhill ever since. Within a couple of weeks we practically had martial law, we've had riots you name it. Law and order has completely broken down. They've cut the pensioners fuel allowance and all the while they've had their snouts in the trough. 2 tier Keir approval rating has fallen off a cliff - the country has had enough already lol.

Aibu to think that those who voted them in should apologise.

Do you not get bored of this?

Do you not get bored of implying anyone with a different opinion to you is stupid?

Do you not get fed up of denying you think and wrote this only to double down by explaining how superior you are to “daily mail readers”?

Then the effort you have to go to to perform this faux naïveté?

Because I get bored of reading it.

Your opinion is not worth more than anyone else’s.

Even if that person isn’t highly educated. Even if that person reads newspapers you disprove of. Even if that person is of lower class.

Everyone’s vote is worth the same as yours.

Awwww...I see one of your replies on this thread was deleted.

Naught TENS!

I presume, TENSsion, that you were rude about me and/or other posters here who like to interact with others at a decently-informed level.

And you kept saying that it was the Labour people who were horrid, TENS!

You use an interesting phrase like "faux naïveté" yet don't like it when the laughable arguments you previously posted were swatted away because they were nonsense/made/non sequiturs or whatever.

How odd.

If you spout un-sourced nonsense, then people are going to dismiss it.

Does this come as a surprise to you?

Then you were rude and horrid yourself about non Daily Mail/Express readers like myself and others on this thread

Perhaps I might have had a point about you Daily Mail and Daily Express readers...???

They've only been in 5 mins. I can't see how/ anyone's formed an opinion on them yet. Let them get a foot in the door before writing them off. You can't turn a country around, from the state it's in, in a couple months.

KS ďid well today, Badenoch was useless, half her party or more agreed with KS. I had to vote Liberal to help to ensure the local Tory - give him his due, he wasn't a frothing nutter like the front bench of the last government - lost his seat but I would have voted KS in the right constituency. And I wouldn't regret it.--

This aged well.
People don't like to shown up when they are proven wrong.

If anyone will be shown by history (or even now) to “have their snouts in the trough”, to repeat an earlier quote, it will be Farage. Without a doubt.

I would vote Labour again tomorrow.

Not read the whole thread, but no. The alternatives are awful. As a child protection social worker of nearly 20 years, and before that a senior nurse in the NHS with a masters in politics and social policy, I have watched austerity destroy and cause division in the UK. David Cameron was a self indulgent fool and his legacy is toxic.

I am disappointed in labour in that they are having to jump on the bandwagon re immigration. Quietly they are doing things to fix the devastating impact of the last government. Traditionally we have had periods of Labour in power fixing the impact of Tory policy for normal, working people before being voted out but this time feels different. Cameron, Boris and all the others allowed that fuckwit Farage to gain traction and depressingly many idiots are lapping up his racist and untrue rhetoric.

This is a really interesting perspective.

Could you share some of the positive things labour are doing?
