Re: Starmer’s chronicles
I think it's quite clever that when the person that did the promising (by letter? ) resigned, somebody who then took over their (unfinished) workload didn't spot it.
There again, I'm probably just looking for a scapegoat . . . oh wait

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
Perhaps it was an elaborate set-up to catch her out

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
One day hopefully we will get a selection of MPs that are in politics to actually run the country for our benefit.

So voting Lib Dem next time ? Mind you even they sold out in 2010, when they saw a chance of govt. All power corrupts.
A benevolent dictator might be our best chance. The public cant be trusted with their vote anymore, they make daft descisions for the wrong reasons.e.g. who they hate least, or who sounds or looks nicer or who is 'trending'. ( i blame reality tv).

They didn’t sell out. The problem was they didn’t have the votes to have the impact they wanted.

They were naive, unforgivable really considering they’re the party that wants electoral reform of the sort that actually causes coalitions almost every time. They know - or ought to - that they’ll never form a majority government alone and that their pitch, if delivered honestly, ought to reflect that. But they never have. They’ve always preferred to assume they’ll never have to deliver on any promise they ever make, and can therefore spend their time navel gazing, virtue signalling and running intensely local campaigns that aren’t above contradicting each other when convenient.
