🤔 My opinions are my own only
I guess it just depends on who's implementing it, is what I should have said — my bad 😩 I'm just really fed up of ‘Big Tech’ corporations right now and what feels like their total disrespect for users, hence why I'm increasingly against the likes of Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc. Sorry, bud.

Yeah, they may be miles apart, but it's the direction of travel that really concerns me regarding Labour. Digital ID? No-one asked for that, as far as I know. I'm also massively wary of BlackRock and Palantir getting their claws on our assets and data, if they haven't already. It just *feels* wrong.

The problem I (now) have with Labour is that I don't think they want to change course, and therefore they are too late for me. They might as well rename themselves to ‘Reform Lite’ based on their current direction and proposals 🤮

Well, he said Labour was a part of change, and he was right — they've changed into Reform Lite.

I was a keen Labour party supporter for many years, but not anymore. Their current trajectory, like the Tories, is political oblivion.

Also unsurprisingly, I was one of those supporters of Labour who've now jumped to the Greens, all because the Greens are now showing they are more than ‘just eco environmentalists’ (as one person once said to me) via the charisma and straight-talking @zackpolanski.bsky.social and his bold politics 💚

And another own goal. He's a liability now, to the point whereby I'm thinking he's been bribed to throw the match, metaphorically. Needs to be dropped if Labour FC stand any chance of avoiding relegation to the Backbench League 🤣

Labour are just Reform Lite, whilst Reform UK are the Tories 2.0 — both are just nasty parties now, driven by money and hate. At least Zack Polanski and the Green party have given me hope of some decency in politics, not just with their environmental policies/ideology 🙏

Because Labour are clueless. When they got into power, I was optimistic they would do the right thing for voters. Sadly, they took ‘right’ literally by following Reform UK's hurtful tactics and punishing the people who most likely voted for Labour. I've now ditched them and joined the Greens 💚

That would be a huge, huge achievement and one that I welcome 😁👍

Same here 😁👍

That's interesting because I'm pretty sure the 16,500 millionaires who ‘supposedly’ left are neither patriotic nor a significant proportion of the 3 million millionaires still in the UK. I'd also question the reliability of your two sources based on a social media tweet and a pro-wealth infographic.

I'm the same. I really thought he'd bring positive, well-researched improvements, but most of the things he's doing now are just lame attempts to pander to Reform UK voters whilst abandoning and distancing himself from real Labour voters. I'm really disappointed with Starmer now.

I'd probably hold back any celebrations until we see what potential concessions have been made, if any... I don't trust Disney to not renege their U-turn 🤔
September 22, 2025 at 9:21 PM
Yeah, I saw that too and his ‘Bold Politics’ 😁👍

I've found myself warming to the Greens for the first time in ages. I feel like they actually have some teeth now, especially with Zack Polanski challenging his opponents and critics with a degree of professionalism and humility. Whatever he's doing to entice voters, it's working for me so far! 😁👍
