Sort of proves my point!

Given you're arguably the most prolific contributor to political threads on there, I can only guess this is self mocking satire.

Either way I don't think any one individual should dictate content. If folk don't like a particular platform then don't visit it. Other than that leave it to the Mod's...

I’m in no way shape or form trying to dictate content, merely staying true to my word that I won’t contribute when the personal section is like it is, and regarding satire I don’t see why? I’d prefer it not to be there in its present guise but will probably continue to use it when I feel the urge to untwist my underwear.

It's worth remembering Starmer's turned around the worst defeat in a century, in the space of five years, and in the face of three quarters of the media spewing filth at him and his party on a daily basis.

Indeed reports of ruthlessly focussed resources speak of New Labour's relentless professionalism.

To the point party representatives now talk of 'Kier Starmer's Labour'. Obviously because focus groups respond with people reacting positively to his name.

Any 'weak/Momentum threatened/wet lettuce' jibes look beyond stupid.

On the other hand Sunak is an ex leader in all but name. The only question is do the right of his party attempt to replace him before or after an electoral annihilation?

Bizarrely, it's now the Tories facing existential decisions whether they swerve even further to extremes or back to the middle ground of politics...

“Tories swerve even further to extremes?”
I think you’ve got the wrong end of the stick there my friend. There’s only one party swerving to the extremes with last nights votes, and it’s not the Tories.

I’ve not donated, and won’t until I know whether the personal section will allow political activism, or be restricted to general info.

Starmer’s speech in the West Midlands very impressive. Clear, good content and powerful. No hubris and reaching out to non Labour voters. He is an excellent politician, able to deliver his message without oral pomposity. Labour HQ’s take on these elections apparently 370 - 400 seats if GE held now. That of course can change over the next 6 months. Street being soft soaped. The right wing Fabricant is his partner and he voted for Truss in the leadership election. Didn’t resign over HS2. Good riddance.

Well I’ve certainly lost my £20 to the Earl betting on a Tory minority government but I think my £20 @ 2/1 for Labour not to get 410 seats with you might be safe. So that’ll be £20 from us both to Ashgate. At least someone will benefit from the disaster that a Labour government will be!
