Please someone leak the Labour membership numbers i need some good news

Line 1: “In an unprecedented move, it was declared that the Party will no longer be informing the NEC of membership numbers.”

If your immediate response is what the actual fuck Keir then you share my feelings. If you second thought is how bad are the number? Well my gut says perhaps sub 100k.

I bet it's about the same number as trans people.

Maybe we should ban them from toilets?

Just a frivolous thought.

We should def ban Streeting, Philipson, Starmer and all the others from toilets. They sounds unsafe with all the stuff they come out with.

100k is still 999,999.5 people too many.

99,999?

I’m not sure I’m okay with there being such a thing as 0.5 of a person!

robertgalbraith.bsky.social•7 days ago

I would be happy to reduce Labour members by that fraction

maddietlr.bsky.social•7 days ago

The .5 isn’t really a person it’s just representative of the state of mind of the one person that is labour curious, but isn’t really committed to the party, they just think red is a pretty colour.

The vorpal blade went … snicker snack.

.5 rounding error

There ain't no way that *someone* isn't going to leak them at some point.

It's only a matter of time 😀

I think sub 100k is optimistic tbh, but 200-250k is _very_ plausible and p disastrous.

Private donors mainly fund the party nowadays. Which explains a lot i think.

tedioustotoro.bsky.social•7 days ago

I'm pretty sure I read that the party has taken more corporate donations under Starmer than under all previous leaders combined

transbritannia.bsky.social•7 days ago

It has. Eclipsing all other donor sources.

It's a lot Rose. I was told that they've had lots leaving specifically over the right wing direction of travel. Trans humiliations. Pensioners. Disabled. Low income families. All stripped.

Thankfully I'm out. I will see how Greens perform with their elections. Carla is great but the other is a GC minister in waiting and ambition.

Lib dems possible. But I will in the end vote for whoever is unequivocally against international law trans human rights abuses.

So many joining the #greenparty

They must be catastrophic if they’re not even being reported to the NEC.

Although that’s also presumably to reduce the chance of them getting out?
