To think the UK will become a barren, post-apocalyptic, dystopian, hell-scape if Labour win?

AIBU to be worried that within 2-3 years of a Labour victory, the UK will become a barren, post-apocalyptic, dystopian hell-scape?

Kier Starmer seems like a mad, leftist radical to me. It starts with VAT on school fees but where does it end???

I’m also really concerned that the imminent collapse of civilisation will have a big impact on house prices, and leave us in negative equity.

Anyone else?

The utterly patronising assumption that only young people vote Labour. Nope, @Brumhilda . It's different now

The Tories have essentially lost the adult and the middle aged vote. Quite possibly because that generation are watching their kids being utterly let down.

Nope.

Nope.

Nope what? Nope you’re not patronising and ageist? Unfortunately you’re both.

Well the King will be the first to go. He'll be packing his bags are hightailing it to mustique because all his property will be seized and redistributed amongst the Islington Massive. Unless they vote for Jeremy Corbyn. Then they can say goodbye to their London Crash pad in Buck House.

He'll bring Harry back as an easily manipulated puppet king who will start growing ganga in the palace gardens and wearing a broken dog bowl on his head to troll his deposed older brother. Megham will do a Montecito makeover of Sandringham and install a hot tub.

If you don’t understand what im saying you may consider me patronising.

Stupidity and ignorance exists at all ages.

Nope.

You can't just say nope. The data is right there in your face.

Well, you can just say nope, but that means you're someone who ignores evidence, which isn't clever.

It doesn’t matter. Youre missing the point by a country mile.

Doesn't look too good for Conservatives in age group to be honest.

You can mock me, but you won’t be laughing when your house is forcibly requisitioned by the state to be converted into a collectivist art therapy centre.

God I bloody hope they do, I hate my house would be nice to move without worrying about the moving costs 😂

It doesn’t matter. No one that’s in the running to “win” is going to a
change anything enough to “change things”

if they were going to do that they wouldn’t be allowed to run because those benefitting from the status who wouldn’t let them.

so nothing is going to change except more being taken in taxes from those who “work”

FFS, the utterly pathetic levels of drama on you, OP 🙄

leftist radical

Starmer is about as centre left as you can get.

It starts with VAT on school fees but where does it end???

With eating the rich, how else?!

Edited

It will end up as "eating the people next door who have a slightly nicer car than ours and a bigger garden". THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS UNDER SOCIALISM.

SqueakyDinosaur · 24/05/2024 21:57

I'm not sure whether that means you'll have to take on their car leasing plan, but I'm sure that will be hammered out in due course.

Notonthestairs · 24/05/2024 21:57

Hhhmm so nothing will change. And yet
It will degenerate badly until there is a significant change which will be dramatic and outside the permitted current Overton window.

We’re beyond socialism or conservatism.

Neither of those will now provide a fair outcome for the public.

Yep nothing will change politically, all the lies will continue but living standards will degenerate u til eventually people will be forced to think outside the politically socially acceptable offerings they are presented with. Only at that point will things really change and it will be painful.

I don’t want the job. I’ll be outta here by then hopefully.

doubtfulguest · 24/05/2024 22:03

Yes, Sir Starmer is the very definition of radical leftie 🙄
