Who'd have thought that being transphobic, genocide-denying, neoliberal, flag-shaggers wouldn't be popular on the left?

Wonder what's happening to the membership numbers (no longer published). At this rate, the legendary Labour ground army will vanish before the next GE.

Thanks. Think it's going to fall a lot further...
Can anyone give me a logical explanation as to why they are following what seems to be a suicidal strategy? Am I just too stupid to understand the 5-D chess moves from the Big Branes?
I genuinely don’t understand it. I can only think it’s a combination of (a) Starmer thinking he can be Blair, when he can’t, and the situation is very different and (b) wildly misjudging the popular appetite for this stuff and chasing the (right wing) media narrative rather than trying to shape it.
It's like one of those miserable Xmas days when the host spends all of their time and effort on pleasing and placating the horrible drunken racist uncle who is ruining the party for everyone else.
💯
I don't pay a lot of attention to UK news any more (in large part because it's so disappointing!) but I will never ever understand how this is actually a "Labour" government. It's just... bizarre. Honestly I think those ratings are lower than Trumps and gosh knows we are in a deep awful mess here!
Pleeeeease dont do what we’ve done in the US. Every country flirting with this bullshit needs to use us as the scared straight story.
Lol, or - despite what they're obviously aiming for - anywhere else? Not persuasive enough for the fash, too convincingly fash for everyone else. Great stuff.
Bingo. Why on earth they think they can outflank Farage (or, indeed, THIS Tory party) on the right is beyond me!
