It won't. You forget that Starmer is more Tory than the Tories

I'm afraid not quite as bad, just doesn't cut it anymore, we need a seismic change. We need a national strike, but sadly there are still too many I'm alright Jacks. Maybe in another 10/20 years, there will be enough people with literally nothing to lose.

Re: The Daily Post Election Politics Thread
I see the Sue Gray report is out.
It's worth remembering that she's not there to pass judgment, just to report on her findings.
However, the report does use the following phrases:
She concludes that the government needs to address several issues immediately and that they do not have to wait for the police to investigate.
It's worth remembering that she's not there to pass judgment, just to report on her findings.
However, the report does use the following phrases:
- the behaviour is difficult to justify
there are failures of leadership
some of the events should not have been allowed
the excessive consumption of alcohol is not appropriate
She concludes that the government needs to address several issues immediately and that they do not have to wait for the police to investigate.

Just listening to Johnson in Parliament. Every time he opens his mouth he just drops himself in it further. Flailing about making excuses and just making it ever more blatant how unfit for office he always was.

I love the fact that on a couple of days they pulled a double-header.

'Frat house culture' at Boris Johnson's Downing Street flat 'led to aides banning him from taking top-secret documents home after he left them lying around in view of visitors'

Re: The Daily Post Election Politics Thread
Starmer was set upon by a large group of right wing nutters. It's a good job the police were there
A few of them can be heard adding why he prosecuted journalists.
Johnson's words have worked.
We're going down the Trump road of politics.

Johnson tells a lie
His supporters swallow it and act on it.
It was rent a mob today.

My parents have defended him regardless of what he has said and done, until now.

The guy who lead today's mob is a former conservative counsellor.

If those who are in charge and make the rules, break them as they wish with no comeback from the law, you end up with anarchy.
