Labour No 10 strategists. I doubt very much the Parliamentary Labour Party or the London & Manchester Labour parties were. By the sounds of it they have woken up to a bucket of cold sick. Khan & Burnham must be going apeshit

Labour is collapsing. I don’t think commentators are getting the scale of this. As u point towards even their bastions like London and other urban centers are coming undone. Regional Labour parties (like those around London & Manchester) will have to differentiate themselves.

I can’t see how this goes down well in London and many other urban centers. It also looks very weak. Reform will do well out of this

Next set of polls are going to see them crash down again. I think it’s over for Starmer. It sounds like even cabinet ministers are losing patience with this …show. It’s now about when Starmer goes and who replaces him

How did they not try and build a consensus inside the party?

Pretty clear they are in a death spiral now. Sounds like Labour are gearing up to replace Starmer early next year. If Labour can’t stabilise themselves they will split and break apart.

The shrewder question is who is financing all of this and getting US tech firms to support it. None of this is cheap and someone or someone’s are spending a lot of money to Americanise British politics s and media

Because he will immediately attack the UK economy, and the monkeys in charge thought going along with Brexit was entirely clever and didn’t think through being part of a trading block that could tell the US to take a long walk off a short pier wasn’t a big deal.

It makes the government look incredibly weak

Yes but given the UK’s reliance on US systems, could they? This whole thing is a much bigger mess than understood

Some where in the middle. It’s important to remember austerity really hit vulnerable communities

The US is the enemy

Brexit creates horrendous direct problems (we can’t implement 60% of it due to the problems it causes). It put every exiting problems on steroids, making them all worse while soaking up money, time trust, engagement like a beast. It’s crippled the UK’s ability to fix anything

The problem is that he is still feasting on the corpse of conventional politics from the big two. It’s going to take a while to sort that out

The weirdest one is the food thing. US day today food is terrible these days. Instead you end up with people talking about 50 year old stereotypes they cling very desperately to. It’s a lot weird.

It’s still scarily high though
