Centrism / Liberalism is extremism. Absent of intellectual / moral red lines. Capable of anything to take power.
UK Unions should disaffiliate. Stop funding Labour's austerity attacks on workers. Stop funding Labour's genocide complicity.

Starmer handed out a 16 month sentence to someone for eating an ice cream in the 2011 riots. They served 8 months and afterwards may have been deported.
If that's what eating an ice cream gets you. I think it's rational to want the death penalty for genocidal war criminals like Starmer and Lammy.

Neither Lammy or Starmer are 'sickened' by this.
Lammy has decided, based on whatever his priorities are, that facilitating a genocide in Gaza is preferable to him, than whatever he'd lose if he acted against the genocide.

The raison d'etre of a 'new regulator' is to occupy and obstruct the space where Nationalisation should be.
In the same way the raison d'etre of Centrists in Labour is to occupy and obstruct the space where an actual Labour party should be.
Neither exist to actually do anything. Just deny space.

Robert Peston’s ‘that’s how it came across to me’ line doesn’t wash.
That’s what a US cop says after firing 28 bullets into a Black driver’s car. “They may not have done anything threatening but 'I FELT threatened', so my actions are justified.”

The key thing to understand about people like Starmer, McSweeney, Wes Streeting, Rachel Reeves is that they're weird freaks.
Not the good kind of interesting, quirky, unique freak.
But the 'completely detached from society and humanity psychotic' kind of weird.
This is the core of centrism.

Not much shocks me. I have the lowest possible opinion of Reeves and Starmer et al.
But, for a multitude of reasons, I am amazed by this headline.
These people belong in a mental asylum not in government.
Reeves appears to be the thickest, most unqualified, least imaginative person in Britain.

I genuinely don't care about the Green party, Zack Polanski, Corbyn or Zarah Sultana.
I care about the most optimum strategy to take the most votes (& constituencies) from Labour & Reform.
That's all they should care about too.
They best not get in each others way.

As someone who's wanted a new left party in UK politics since Corbyn's 2020 suspension - now is an awful time to start one.
5 years too late. In that time the 'stay in the party and fight' lot have achieved.... nothing.
Meanwhile Reform was founded in Nov 2018 & might win the next election..

Israel could be mounting the heads of babies on spikes around their towns and Starmer would still be calling it 'self-defence' and 'both sides'-ing it.
And lets face it, Israel has spent the last 2 years doing a lot worse than putting babies heads on spikes.

When an idea comes into a Liberals head they think/act as though it's the first time it's been thought.
When it's their idea is the only time they'll accept its legitimacy.
Caused by:
1- an unreal Trumpian level of ego.
2- a mentally ill lack of self-awareness.
3- having never read a history book.

The complicity of British Media (BBC) and politicians re: their non-existent reaction to Israel boarding a British ship in international waters should be apparent to all.
This is a Liberal-made genocide.
Decades long complicity of the Liberal West has made Israel's wild extremism possible.

He leans over and points at the person in the adjacent bed, someone with the same incurable disease, and says their time is up.

I presume liberals are boycotting the Andor series?
I'm not sure how one could watch it knowing their social/political ideology puts them in opposition to every single aspect of the Rebel Alliance.
Not just Luthen, but Andor, Brasso, Mon, Bail, Yavin etc

Reform can only capitalise because both the Tories and Labour have abused our democracy for so many decades - both allowing capture by lobby money and business.
This is what happens when voters have zero genuine representation in parliament.
This is only the fault of Labour/Tories. Nobody else.

Centrism exists to discipline the left. To make sure the only kinds of government we can get are right wing.
Centrism isn't centrist. It isn't even really political. It's a disciplining force to keep millions, potentially a majority, of British voters in check.

Why does Starmer's Labour Party seem determined to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?
Because it hates the left more than it fears the far right.
As a result it won't do the "left" things so many of its potential supporters are crying out for.

Looking at the election results and Labour's response:
It's almost as if every Centrist was born and grown in a bureaucratic, media bubble, never had a real job, incubator -and has never, ever held a conversation with a real person or come into contact with any aspect of reality in their lives.
