I'm struck by the last part of that quote about the Liars. It's telling that in the 70s, Margaret Thatcher won big, from the economic strike ridden shambles that was Britain, but leveled with the British people, to paraphrase, medicine tastes bad, you don't like taking it, but you have to take it before you can get better, so the British economy. But then she had conviction and integrity, big difference.

If he can be consistent for some time, then the likes of Cooper, Reeves, Streeting, and even Lammy won't be too radical. It's the pressure the leftists put on him that we have to worry about now.

However, with many pupils leaving the system some private schools will then close and Labour will not only loose some of the manic money from VAT on school fees, which it’s relying on to fund education, but it’ll have 100,000s more children to educate in the State system. It’ll be a total mess. NB I don’t have kids so have no skin in this game, but I can see how this little magic money tree will start to dry up and trigger greater problems.

If you really want to hear an anti-democratic technocrat, listen to Alistair Campbell views on the electoral system. Key features of where he would like to go is: 1. reducing the voting age to 16, perhaps lower; 2. weighting votes on a points system. A 16 year old's vote would be worth four points, a 75 year old's one point; 3. Non-elected Ministers, having non-MPs or members of the Lords appointed to Ministerial positions. This would see "experts" appointed to ministerial positions.

I expect the lack of direction and the number of wildly different views in the Parliamentary Labour party will come back to bite them on the behind very quickly. With no clear direction and no mandate on specific policies, the Labour party will factionalise and start infighting before this year is out. in 1997 Blair had key policies that his own party understood. Education, Internet roll-out and the end of cronyism (cash for questions etc). The public voted for those policies and his own party understood them. This meant that the fracturing of ideas took a term and a half to materialise. It actually took the Iraq war to really start the divides. This time the Labour Whip is going to be herding cats, none of whom have the same ideas or convictions as one another. I fully expect deep divisions to be apparent and challenging Starmer before this year is out.

@@PeterPeach21 good point, she was not great on this. Thanks for pointing out, but I still hold that most of her perspectives are good. Even on this matter, she was trying to defend free speech, I agree that if you suppress it, it doesn’t stop the ideas/thought. The issue is one stage back that if a country allows an open immigration policy to those that hate the country that’s welcoming them, that’s the real issue. Stop the cause not the symptom.

Yeah, even in Kier Starmer's own seat his popularity was cut in half, from 36k in 2019 to only 18k votes this election. The Labour PM in a seat in London can barely command a 10k lead in votes, the PM's seat doesn't qualify as a safe seat. He held on a with only 20% of the electorate in his own constituency voting for him. If that isn't a clear sign that there's a political vacuum in the country I don't know what is. Even in North London, Kier Starmer gets by only on a lack of opposition.

I don't like Stamer but hope he does well because he is our prime minister. I agree with your criticism of political parties not recognizing underlying beliefs, concerns, and desires of the public. I also hope that there is more debate on difficult issues and more of an attempt to gain consensus in the best interest of the country. It is crucial for our democracy that differing viewpoints are respected and considered in decision-making processes. In the end, what matters most is the well-being and progress of our nation as a whole. Let us strive for unity and cooperation in the face of challenges.

The fundamental problem is that Starmer's definition of 'doing well' is not the same as yours. Labour have been tasked with speeding up the implementation of Agenda 21. They don't give a damn about you, and neither do any of the politicans associated with groups like the WEF. Please wake up.

All sounds a bit remainer if I am being honest. We have a system, no matter how flawed that we accept when we cast our vote. Labour won under that system and will have five years as a government. How hollow that all seems to some makes absolutely no difference.

What counts is seats. You weren't whining when Bowwis got an 80 seat majority on way less than half the popular vote. As for gaming the system, you play by the rules as they are, not how you wish they were; Hilary Clinton made that mistake.

Starmer's support is indeed "wide but shallow", and consequently he'll have significant difficulties very quickly. He'd be wise to recognise that, but he probably won't.
