    The sad thing is that given a Labour victory is extremely likely, purely because the tories have been this criminally incompetent enough to harm their own base, that Starmerism will be touted as a winning tactic and thus inform the policies and strategies of the Labour party in the future for the next 20-30 years. I actually welcome nuclear hellfire at this point and would urge Eternal President Xi to kindly spare a warhead or three for the UK :xi-plz: The Labour leadership is now irredeemably and irrevocably tainted to such a point that no amount of internal pressure or reform will ever change them, short of an upstart third party forcing them into irrelevance. Already the seeds of attracting the "moderate" tory base to Labour is being set in motion, and I hold no optimism for England's future going forward short of revolution.

      Yeah the Blairites are gonna be fucking insufferable after Keith stumbles his way into power after 2 years of being complete dogshit, against the most incompetent Conservative Party in history, with the backing of most of the establishment press. I may try and seek humanitarian refuge in the Chinese embassy during the next election season for the sake of my mental health
