Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves and most of the Labour Party are Europhiles, and I am certain they would lead join campaign if it were politically possible. At present it isn't achievable and there are too many problems to address at present.

It’s saddening how impotent, afraid and servile this Labour government seems to be.

Fiddling within the window permitted by our right wing media won’t sort our problems or get them re-elected.

We’re in a time that demands bold, creative and decisive action.

mancman44.bsky.social•32 days ago

Exactly - ‘afraid’ is exactly what they are. ‘Afraid’ of enraging Farage and the Tory media and ‘afraid’ to do what’s right for the country. I ask myself what’s the point in Labour when they’re nothing more than a watered down version of the Tories.

Well said.

Rachel in Accounts just doesn't understand.

Bit of a gut punch hearing her say that.

iacovos.bsky.social•32 days ago

A supposedly left-leaning government with no compass, moral or otherwise, will usher in fascism. Happened before

sharpinsky.bsky.social•32 days ago

Just watch her.

I am convinced that Labour's policy is to wait until the clamour to rejoin is irresistible. The more people join organisations like this, the sooner it will happen.

mjv68.bsky.social•32 days ago

God I hope so.

When you’re up against two megalomaniacs, preparations are vitally important

I can only hope she’s taking a public position for effect in advance of negotiations with EU. As with other lab gibberish it doesn’t make any sense unless there’s something else going on

mancman44.bsky.social•32 days ago

I don’t think there’s anything else going on in the background. Starmer and Reeves are terrified that if they dare to suggest rejoining the CU and/or SM they’ll face the wrath of the Tory MSM and Farage. They need to say f*** them and go for it - that’s what leaders do.

chhinnamasta.bsky.social•32 days ago

They’re terrified of the wrong thing then - Lib Dem’s and Greens will take more votes off them at the next GE

mancman44.bsky.social•31 days ago

Correct. Red wall voters are more aligned to Reform anyway, and while he (Starmer), panders to them, he’s alienating people like me who would otherwise consider voting for Labour if they called out Brexit for the shit show it is.

wanstronian.bsky.social•32 days ago

Seems to me that now they're in power, Labour have no serious interest in doing the right thing for the country.

Being "better than the Tories" is just not good enough. We deserve more.

andrewknight.mainbastards.online•32 days ago

Why is that?

Wtf are Labour waiting for?

I don't understand it.

fastcarspete.bsky.social•32 days ago

Because Labour appear to base their decisions on what the media will say rather than what the public will.

Labour appear petrified of making any case for anything European.

mancman44.bsky.social•32 days ago

100%. Starmer’s a coward - a brave PM would say f*** the Tory media and the ‘red wall’ and do what’s right for the economy and the country, but he’s terrified of both.

wanstronian.bsky.social•31 days ago

Yes, he's scared of them. But he's also scared of Trump. And that's understandable: Trump is a vengeful child who - inexplicably - happens to be the leader of the most powerful nation on earth.

If we upset him, he'll punish the UK.

But that's exactly why we should expedite closer ties with the EU.

andrewknight.mainbastards.online•31 days ago

wanstronian.bsky.social•32 days ago

Yes, Labour are just as beholden to the rich white men who own Britain's media as the Tories were.

Time to leave the UK by any means necessary.

arj2024.bsky.social•32 days ago

Reeves is unfit for the job if she genuinely believes there is no benefit from EU SM+CU membership.

If she wants "growth" we need to enable SMEs to effortlessly export to the EU once again.

61% of the workforce work for SMEs and we surely need these people contributing to "growth" with exports.

mancman44.bsky.social•32 days ago

She can’t seriously believe that. Labour are running scared of Reform should they dare to suggest rejoining either the CU or SM or both - that’s cowardice.
