I'm worried it will always be a tough sell though. You can barely say the word immigration without a wave of people saying to kick them out or kill them all. Our country has really extreme views on that particular topic. But I'm also worried that Tories have found their golden ticket between the media, social media, and an endless fountain of lies with no accountability.
Yeah unfortunately the press and social media is run by the right. The press are always going to find something to criticise about any Labour immigration policy that isn't completely shutting down the borders. Unfortunately with the number the press and the right wing has done on the British public, any idea of Labour governing for more than a term in the next couple of decades seems pretty unlikely.

We're just going to have to wait for automation to make everyone jobless.

DUP lost South Belfast to SDLP by 15000+ votes, which is a landslide in what's normally a marginal constituency. Good.

Yeah that's pretty much my worry. I can't see any realistic path out of this when the media hold so much power and these seeds have been laid for so many years now. But hey, I guess as an upside when I lose everyone around me with the loss of the NHS I wont have a reason to stick around. It's honestly weird seeing that realistically as a part of my future lol. This fucking country man.

Boris even lies at his acceptance speech. 'Yes, we will recruit 50,000 more nurses and 6,000 more GPs and we will build 40 new hospitals across the country.'

Lies and racism (against the right people) wins elections. Yay.

Nor am I. I feel a this country has an appetite for a socialist government. I just want Labour to be a little more creative with their immigration manifesto so they actually have a chance of governing as one.


Indeed, despite the dire result, the policies labour had had very good ratings across the board, it was when you added that it was Labour's, and then corbyns labour did the ratings sink.

After a clean out top to bottom and a rethink of the Labour Party, they need to keep the underpinning socialist polices that people love and wrap it around a ruthless, effective pin sharp leadership and a media darling leader. Then win elections and push thier agenda low key like. They played nice and got nowhere.

Also, fuck Swinson.

I wrote on twitter "The English tonight: Fuck the disabled people as long as Brexit happens!" after seeing some people say they voted for the Tories PURELY because of Brexit, even if they have never voted for them before or have always been labour voters

Someone replied straight away "Sorry for your mental disability"

I told him to fuck off and blocked him.

urgh.

There will be no such thing as a media darling Labour leader... how do people not get this?
They will utterly crucify anybody who takes over from Corbyn.

Had their chance. Their fate is theirs to own now. Hope they like it.
