Corbyn not purging all of the ghouls in his party was the biggest mistake this shithole of an island has ever seen, right after the invention of British tea “culture”.
Corbyn never had sufficient institutional power to do this, even if he’d had the stomach for it. And even if he’d had the stomach for it, few of his supporters would have
If only there was a way to fight against the establishment without having institutional power.
Well indeed, but step one of that plan probably isn’t to survive successive purges by the party right and then accidentally win a leadership election against your own wishes lol
you know I thought I hated tea, and never understood why it’s a part of our national thing. then I tried Chinese tea and discovered actually tea is so fucking cracked, anglo tea is just dogshit
Same, sis. Spent all my life being exposed to bad tea and herbal stuff until I finally found out what the fuck a gaiwan is a year ago.
Which is why it’s so amusing to me to see britbongers having endless arguments about making tea, acting all snobby about their favourite tea bag brand being the best in the world, or how adding milk first makes your tea somehow superior.
Like, you just take low quality leafs, shred them to shit and stuff them into way too small bags. Then you scald the tea dust with too hot water for 5 fucking minutes and in the end add copious amount of milk and sugar to cover up the bitter mess you created.
Even rednecks with their sweet tea have a more sophisticated tea culture than the country that’s most famous for it. It’s just ridiculous.

(And yes, I do have big fucking mini tuo on my shoulder when it comes to this stuff)
reminder that reform UK is an LLC with farage as the majority shareholder. this is legal and good in the UK
me everytime i think about the future of the uk
we’re 4 and a half years away from the next election. many MANY more stupid things can happen between now and then
You think Kier Stormfront will hold on to power the whole time?
no, I really do not. his polling is so far in the negatives; but more importantly, the labour right are a bunch of back stabbing freaks who have many times in the history of the party absolutely eaten one another alive, and will do so again. remember, britain is not a presidential republic, all you need to be PM is leader of the largest party; you can absolutely launch a coup from whin your own party and assume PMship without an election of any kind, the tories did this so many times in the past few years. so no, I do not see Starmer as PM in August 2029 come the next GE
Polling doesn’t matter when you have such a large majority. Labour could lose a Theresa May level of seats every year through by-elections and still not have to call an election until 2029.
Without Brexit as a dividing issue or an organisation like the ERG, we’re not going to see a mirror of the Tory’s leadership contests, and the mechanism for changing party leader is completely different as well.
A lot can happen in five years, but I’ll buy a hat and subsequently eat it if Kier isn’t PM in 2029.
It’ll be streeting next, and the public hate him even more than starmer.
Don’t worry, Labor will coalition with the other leftist parties, so they can stab them in the back later!
Labour would go into coalition with the tories before they worked with a genuinely leftist party
…in fact they have done this multiple times in local councils.
why are the liberal-democrats getting MORE support after labour’s become more and more indistinguishable from them?
Scotland about to nope the fuck outta there
not gonna happen any time soon. the first referendum was an act of parliament that was a special ‘ok you have one shot at this, and we hold all the chips on these kinds of votes’. and the SNP lost the referendum. they then spent many years trying to find all kinds of legal means to petition for a second referendum. the high court like a year or so ago said nope, only parliament can do this. so unless a government wants to vote to let Scotland leave, which nobody is gonna do, then na Scotland is suck going down to hell with England
Only because the SNP is too chickenshit to hold an unsanctioned referendum and unilaterally declare independence.
They’d almost certainly lose the referendum. The SNP is not a very popular party at the moment with the recent corruption scandals, and Brexit and the collapsing price of oil seems to have cooled opinions on how favourable independence would be as well.
Plus, Scotland is seeing huge immigration from England at the moment as living there is slightly less unaffordable, and the English transplants aren’t going to vote very much for independence. (There’s also no mechanism for determining if someone is actually Scottish, and that was never a requirement for any referenda.)
if the Catalonians, who are far more serious and supported of a movement, were chickenshit and recinded their declaration, there’s no way in hell turbo lib SNP will do the based thing
Plaid am byth!
I can get behind partying forever.
