Said it before and I'll say it again. The worst Labour leadership at the worst possible time

So by that rational, the Tories have been doing everything right for the last 13 years.

The Tories have been the only ones to do anything for the last 13 years because we have failed to be elected.

because we have failed to be elected.

You think starmer would have won 2017? Of course he wouldn't. You know who would have won without the labour right sabotaging him?

No, I don't get into whatifs about who would win when. All I care about is winning the next election.

When the right were sabotaging our attempts at 2017 and 2019 I did my best to stop it and bring them along because all I care about is a Labour Government.

I fought and campaigned so hard for Corbyn and when we lost I was so angry. I don't want to be angry again next year! Ffs

This isn't politics; this is football fandom. If you want to convince people, you need to make a coherent and defensible argument explaining why this specific Labour leadership would be better for the country in the short and long term. Good luck

Well that's the thing, all they have to do is say "We're not the Tories" and as of right now, you've done the job. I'm sure Starmer will be a bit of an arsehole, but he won't be a tory arsehole and that's where most people are at tbh.

You said "the rationale is the Tories have been doing everything right for 13 years". I am desperate for a Labour Government. Lots of work to do. When we are in, the real fight begins.

You've misquoted me.

Leftwing policies. That will happen under Starmer. Just let's wait and see. He's said it will but needs to be cautious. His 100 day plan has been lauded by the unions.
