Reform party didn’t exist 15 years ago.

Yep. You need to stand up against this. You don’t win any votes by pandering to Reform or Brexiters for that matter

It’s really frustrating watching Labour trying to outdo Reform, which is only going to make the Reform argument stronger and turn away the centre left of Labour voters to LD and G. Desperate times

It’s sad when we finally get a Labour gov, they hit the vulnerable harder than the Tories did. Labour paid the price for it yesterday and Labour MPs talking to the i and G, are despairing. This is the last Labour gov for a very long time. People will remember the Labour austerity.

Difficult choices don’t have to be made. Starmer has made political choices keeping the wealthy and the right wing media on his side. This could break the Labour Party.

2.6 percent pay increases will come from within budgets, so in other words, patients and children will suffer. A wealth tax would sort it out but Starmer is protecting the billionaires.

I find that while immigration debate tiring when rest of Europe are taking many more refugees per capita than Uk. It’s sad that Labour has become Reform/Tory lite.

Labour is siding with the wealthy now. Unlike Scandinavia, Labour is hitting the vulnerable while protecting the wealthy. Labour=Tory

Personally I hope Labour will lose all their supporters to Green and Lib Dem. Punishing the vulnerable was not in their manifesto. In Denmark we have wealth tax. Starmer is scared if the rw press to go ahead with what is needed.

If Starmer’s Labour were standing in a Danish election, it would be branded very right wing. In Denmark, Social Democratic Party supports the elderly and disabled people. They don’t cut their allowances.

I was very pleased seeing LD and Green doing well.

They are not improving lives. Labour is cutting benefits, disability allowances and winter fuel. I’m an ex headteacher. Schools are not better off. Funding not increasing. We have austerity under Labour. What kind of parallel universe do you live in?

Pip and winter fuel came up on the door steps according to Labour campaigners.

I think a lot switched to reform and LD and I can’t see them going back. Why would anyone vote Tory or Labour?

Maybe vote Green. Maybe many will follow you across

I’m fortunate that Lib Dem are doing well where I live. Sarah Green LD is our Mp.

I don’t think you have realised how unpopular Labour have become. You need to think Liz Truss Conservatives to get the picture.

Starmer is punishing his core electoral base and will pay the price for it. Rightly so.
comment in response to
post
People will remember the cut to disability allowances and pensioners winter fuel. Even the Tories didn’t cut that, which means Starmer has gone full right wing.

As long as he protects the wealthy from a wealth tax and keep punishing the vulnerable, Lib Dem, Green and Reform will benefit. Starmer will lose next GE.

I love recommendations

Most Brits do. I’m Danish. My wife is British. I can’t get her to eat anything remotely raw. Let alone our Danish turbo charged stinky cheese. You Brits are weird ;-)
