This idiot really is pissing herself that she'll be governed by Labour aristocrats instead of blue blooded Etonian pig fuckers. Worst case scenario, TERF island will saunter into the sea instead of actively sinking, more likely nothing will change.

Please continue to enjoy your bread and circuses plebians, ignore the fact that you can afford neither. Blame your fellow worker for your plight.

Tax the rich. Strengthen the workers. Support the disadvantaged. Come on Labour, that’s in your genes.

We are literally talking about the exact same people who kicked Jeremy Corbin out, support Israel and Ukraine, and in these elections said that they'll basically change nothing.

The Labour party is just neolibs. The most you will get is platitudes, poverty and imperialism.

Are you sure we're talking about the same Labour party? Cause the Labour party i know is Blairite through and through. It was also under Labour that Britain started to wage ruthless and bloody military campaigns post WW2 in an attempt to cling to its colonial empire, for instance in Malaya. These are their genes, that is their fundamental character: imperialism and neoliberalism. Corbyn was an outlier, a short-lived exception.

They haven't been an actual "labour" party since Thatcher destroyed them. They're just another neoliberal party these days.
