I don’t think we’re that far apart politically.
I’m just past the point of dreaming about what I want. I just want the countries outlook to not make my skin crawl at every turn.

Christ we're through the looking glass aren't we
It's funny innit
My post was a comment, not a proposed solution.
Let's hope not or the Labour party will conspire to lose yet another election.
Ditto.

I want to laugh but primarily I have an overwhelming urge to bang my head against a wall.
That’s kind of the issue though isn’t it, lots of people have comments and very few are actually providing any solutions. Or indeed compromises.
When did you last get a government that lead to the policies you most want?
Worth pointing out that it’s the same answer for almost all Tories.
a lot of UKIP voters managed to get the policy they most wanted by saying the tories aren't brexity enough, this line of thinking will only make me vote green tbh. if the two realistic options only want to win above all else, why would i not vote for a fringe party and hope they decide to appeal to me rather than the other fringe parties
how many people managed to change a specific policy from within the system vs. change policy by making it impossible for the establishment to stay without co-opting it?

Actually the comment is a much more fundamental observation on the state of our democracy. Or lack of it. In a similar vein to the article below.
"Britain's claims to being a functioning democracy are only skin deep"

Good.
And this was the person people wanted to replace Corbyn..
What a shit pile of a party 
Zero tolerance unless you stick to praising antisemites who have statues, that way you'll get promoted.

Tbf this was pretty anti-Semitic.
There’s no way the Israeli police would train someone to kneel on the neck of a grown man. They are trained to shoot children in the back from a safe distance.

yeah, there wasn't even a red cross or a press badge on Floyd's shirt
“The tactics used by the police in America, kneeling on George Floyd’s neck, that was learnt from seminars with Israeli secret services.”
Liberals are beyond a parody at this point.
Excellent news.
If you fancy travelling, you can even take a seminar yourself. If not, just watch the video that has the knee on the neck tactic as its thumbnail and see if you learn anything from that.

I know how sensitive this is, and appreciate that it’s proven to be wrong... but that’s not anti Semitic. Surely? Stupid and wrong, but not racist.
The Israeli Police are not a race.
It’s probably not worth a pedantic rake over of all that went before. But that’s a really weird angle and conclusion and I know very little about her.
How the hell do you justify sacking someone for sharing an article that contains a fact, that US police officers have been trained in Israel? And that's hardly the main point of the article.
Starmer has just ripped the party apart. Dumb.
Nor was Corbyn, and everyone knew it, but there you go.
Krav - a martial art developed in Czech republic ... being taught in Germany to civilians for cash by from what I can see somebody who is 100% not a mossad operative
How is that the same as saying the Israel sent over active military to train American police in how to kill civilians
it's been denied in the same way US police denies this shit "chocking is definitely not a tactic or policy"
I love how selectively you read that page, sun. It's always a joy.
or perhaps He is being seen as someone with zero tolerance, and as an added bonus getting rid of someone who is associated with one of the worst opposition leaders we have ever had.
That should get extra brownie points with the Mail,Sun, .
Rachel Reeves has been sacked too?
He's allowing himself to bend toward the will of the right wing British media, who are ironically anti semitic (Miliband headlines?).
Good to know that standing up for teachers is seen as a weakness by the current leadership.
I’d love to know the membership figures which have been suspiciously absent since Starmer won.
Good riddance
