I suspect that you draw your similarity claim from their positions on migration. Actually, Tory party (as per Sunak) and Farage are poles apart except on the boats, which are a small fraction of the numbers. Farage wants to stop the 900K or so per year of visa-grants with dependants because the country cannot absorb these numbers given the housing shortage.

The real problem is that the Tories will have left a mess more monumental than many people realise and so much so that Labour won't know how to get us out of it.

At the moment, the country runs courtesy of British business. That'll likely still bimble on if they aren't further taxed.

Doesn't matter really. But my take is that Labour has only one policy: Piss on what they think are the rich. The rest is their rhetoric.

As an executive, they will have to continue paying down the Covid debt. They will have to find a way of stimulating investment which requires cash that they won't have; that's how bad the Tories have performed.
Labour pissing on what they think as the rich is still better than the tories pissing on anyone apart from the Uber rich.

Also, could you define labours perception of ‘rich’ please ?
