it is fucking infuriating to think how one different staffing choice, someone like Doug Jones, could have made all the difference in the world

Considering that exact question is why, after waiting all of last summer for Corbyn to get off his arse (after leaving Lab in the May), I pulled the trigger and joined Greens in the November.

And it seems the mess of the YP launch has seen many potential acolytes of theirs ponder the same question.

One underrated thing this has done is destroy the supports keeping Corbyn as main figurehead of the British Left. Much of the sense it was external factors causing his Lab leadership to be so dysfunctional (media/establishment attacks, internal betrayal) maintained veneration. This has exposed him.

There's literally an episode of The Orville based on this premise.

At least, in the modern era, we can can still depend on something: that anyone who uses horoscopes to live their life by is someone not worth listening to or taking seriously.

I think we have fully established that punching your own voters is this only recognisable policy program of this government to date.

Since the election almost all the vote movement has been within these blocs rather than between them. The centre/left bloc vote is rising because a lot of Lab24 voters who had been saying "don't know" are now saying "Green".
