For example down in Woking, Labour are doing really well, thanks to a very active and well organised local party. Ditto up in Preston where they actually have some ideas worth studying. Let's not forget that a Corbyn led Labour party pulled in 40% of the vote in 2017, a fact that a lot of people, including many of those in the Labour Party at the moment, seem to want to pretend did not happen, especially given Starmer's instrumental role in helping screw Labour up in 2019. Now I am always more than happy to mock the Corbynites on all sorts of things and am under no illusions about the ill they wish on people like me but they are much more capable of getting people out to vote than people realise. What they did in 2017, even on the back of perhaps the worst Tory campaign ever (which even then managed to pull in 42%) ever, always needs respecting and keeping an eye on.

Edited by Pembroke (28 May 2022 10.50am) Why the Labour Party insist on dying on this particular hill is completely beyond me. Nobody in their right mind believes it and to have people who wish to govern the country repeating versions of it, over and over again, makes zero sense.

I think I read there are are 5000 Trans people in the UK despite all the nonsense of the activists. Just like the bloke who wants to bring his cat to the supermarket sometimes you cannot accommodate everybody's wishes. As you say why are Labour obsessed with such a tiny minority when 99.9% of the population is not Trans. I see the AG made a good point today about Trans schoolkids, they cannot legally Transition until 18 so schools should not bow to any pathetic requests such as uniforms toilets or pronouns.

Those without a pussy insisting we call them women, and a bloke ticking a box at the doctors thinking it entitles him to walk around with one on his shoulder for the rest of his days.

Never mind about Catwoman, I'm more troubled by this bunch of leftie Trade Union leaders. [Link] No wonder there are transport strikes and industrial action plans in the pipeline with these blokes calling the tune. Don't they realise that their hard-line tactics will only make matters worse? What with this lot and a seeming recurrence of violence at football matches, the country appears to be in regression. Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

One in five of young people don't identify as a regular male or female. So the neo liberal agenda is working.....you can't strictly call it the left's agenda as the mainstream right adopted most of it.....It receives massive funding by corporations and elites and has battled its way into schools....well in the countries where their degeneracy is accepted.
