Any other leader would be 20 points ahead etc. Starmer is centrist and isn’t being crucified by the right wing press (to my knowledge, at least yet). Starmer might actually stand a chance of winning the next General Election. Our country is also still plagued by Stockholm Syndrome and people who think Boris is a jolly fellow and a great PM so it’s going to take time for them to stop voting Tory. Quote

I was in a meeting this week about future plans, and the person leading the meeting finished by saying that "Boris is doing his best for us"... I think part of my brain shut down, I couldn't even react. Quote

He’s got one of the safest seats going (Beverly & Holderness) so just votes with whatever the PM at the time wants Quote

Starmer might actually stand a chance of winning the next General Election Here is the thing. When was the last time this country actually voted for a left wing Labour party at a General Election. I'd guess it would be 1974, which is nearly 50 years ago now. Since then it has been Tories or Blair that have won. This current bunch are the furthest to the right but '74 was the last time we had a strongly left leaning win. It is not possible to get elected in this country any further out than centre-left any more. I'm not a fan of Starmer but he is as left wing as it gets while having any chance of beating the Tories.

Can't find the thread now but someone was talking about how even an idea such as the NHS would not be voted in today. And its true, which is so fucking mental when you think about it. Quote

Joe Blog Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Is anyone on here a Socialist? I am, just curious to know if there are any others. I know as a group we tend to be mainly Left Wing (apart from the Tory cunts). Quote
