I realise I actually knew that dynamic, I’m just overloaded on Cruel Britannia 2.0. I talked myself into joining the Labour Party in… 2022? 23? Dunno. And they turned into this and I had to quit. Regrettably, given the number of things I would like to quit over, one can only do so once.

I just… I remember being SO excited by Blair after the growing up under the Tories, and then what that turned into, and now this horror show. And just… screw it.

Yeah I won’t be able to vote for them again in the near future. No idea where I’ll go.

Same. I thought... oh god, not Trump again, at least we have Starmer - ax ex human rights lawyer - to talk compassion and sense. 😯 Guess it's the lib dems or Greens, but I'll hold fire until I hear their language when it matters.
