really quite apoplectic about all the mainstream Tory figures in Britain who backed Musk essentially as a way to own the libs and who will now suffer no consequences from staying silent as their ally behaves like a fascist, and a direct danger to senior female politicians

Clement Atlee, born #onthisday in 1883.
His Labour government showed how transformative a Labour administration can be, creating the NHS, welfare state, decolonization and getting the country back on its feet after war.
Blair's government was similarly transformative, as will Keir Starmer's. 🌹
