They will double down on their cynical and ideologically devoid brand of neoliberalism

They don’t have another idea

Starmer and Reeves should be re-trained as parking attendants

Labour's way forward is drop their policy for change which voters all too fully supported in May's local elections.

Not being indistinguishable from the last 14 years would be a start. They said they would bring change. I don't see much of that. And no challenge being mounted by other parties either.

Slow or what ? My mother lived in the Fens 30 yrs ago. Every year the right wing flags , in whichever iteration they were that year, increased & proliferated .
Neither Tories nor Labour have thought this a serious threat . They have let this happen .

Lived in the Lincs/Cambs/Nhants borders for years. Moved from one village to another 4 miles away - you would think we had moved countries! Locals were very suspicious and unwelcoming, most never ventured out of the area. Region is absolutely ripe for Reform!

The further east of the A1 you go , the poverty & the right wing affiliation hits you. Insular & suspicious ..as you say.
The major parties have stood by while the BNP , Tommy Robinson & now a slick Reform , tap into that .

Starmer and his motley crew are superglued to neo-liberal economics.

They won't change, they might as well lay out a turquoise welcome mat for Reform.

The way to defeat Fartage and Deform UK is to start behaving like a Socialist Government and stop jumping on populist bandwagons "the Media" are not going to present you in a good light no matter what you do.
So time to tax the wealthy and stop seemingly kicking the vulnerable and needy in the nuts

This exactly. If they're going to call you socialists no matter what you do, then just do the goddamn socialism.

Maybe Labour should stand for whatever the hell it really believes in and if that's not what the people want them so be it

Problem is, there is no party that delivers what many want. There is no left any more. Only centrist, right and extreme right. No party to level the playing field. To be a Robin Hood.

Stop appealing to Murdoch

Nobody wants diet fascism

Be a left wing government

Fund the winter fuel subsidy

Stand up for trans people you cowardly shits

Or lose

To the right. They always go to the right. They wouldn't manage very well if they were goal keepers.
