After the last few weeks of “change” it’s hard to look forward to any more.

Kier won’t be getting any change though because he doesn’t ever pay for anything

Haha here was me thinking that electing Labour would give the country some needed energy and enthusiasm like in 1997. I don’t know a single person enthused by this government, even if almost everyone is glad the Tories are out. They have totally run out of good will after mere weeks.

Sir Max Headroom is basically Tony Blair if you found him on Wish.

Yeah we will all be poorer and be told to be thankful for it

If you don’t pay for anything, you don’t get any change.

The hopes of millions of voters have evaporated by the deceit of Kier and his cronies. Giving big pay rises and then moaning about a £22 billion pound black hole which contributed to half of it, the labour top team taking thousands in free gifts and claiming it’s fine while millions will suffer in cold wet damp houses due to Labour removing the winter fuel allowance from some of our most vulnerable 😔

I’ve got a feeling that the next four years are going to be awful under Keir Starmer.

No party should have a majority of seats in Parliament without a majority of the vote share.
This isn’t democracy that Starver can do whatever he likes at the order of his donors.

Pretty much straight after the election Parliament went into recess. So they’ve had a start where they can’t get many initiatives through. Parliament restarts and it’s almost straight into conference season. They’ve hidden behind performative politics during this time and fully expect it to continue through conference. However conference season will end and we need to start seeing something more.
All I want is a bit of competent and stable leadership. It strikes me he’s still in campaign mode. I don’t care about ‘Change’ or big messages. It’s time to knuckle down and start making some decisions about the direction you want the country to go in. I want policy, detail, and substance now. It’s time Labour got on with the job.
Also; Barack Obama said 50% of leading a country is being a role model and setting good examples. Letting donors buy you and your wife clothes ain’t it.

Oh to have a left wing mainstream political party in the UK… Instead of this endless austerity.

Words are meaningless when they are so generic like this. People want to know what is actually going to happen, they do not want hints that could mean anything. Labour inherited a UK that was in a far worse state than they were led to believe, I can accept that. What we need now is action that will target those who created this mess so that they are forced to clear up what they have left Labour to deal with. If Labour want to even stand a chance of being in power before the next election is supposed to be held, they need to make the rich and the powerful pay their fair share. Expecting the working class to keep paying for the sins of the rich is only going to ensure Labour are not in power come 2029.

New New Labour? I think the picture needs a caption. I’m going with “Sue Gray’s pay? It’s about this big but I get more in gifts so no big deal.”

I’ve absolutely no faith in him after his decisions. Who on Earth thought that during the precipice of a recession, cost of living sky-high, rents skyrocketing, lets make the pub, the last bastion of community morale a place to ban smoking. If pubs weren’t struggling enough.

What depressing change is he bringing next, he’s been nothing but a huge disappointment.

I suppose he has a big choice of clothes to change into.

Change is coming… He’s changing into his free 10k designer suit.

Hard not to laugh at these statements. More of the same

Off topic, but is this why there’s suddenly so much disapproval of Keir? I saw a tweet in which people had low approval ratings of Keir Starmer. What the fuck happened? I thought all the twitter people whining were far right, like how they were complaining / whining about Keir Starmer’s handling of the security thing / scandal the other day… were they right and it’s just this bad? Didn’t the other party fuck this state over? So, why is there disapproval?
It not only baffles me, but also… for some reason… makes me bothered. I don’t know why, it just does. People voted for this, but now it feels like there’s hypocrisy going on by quickly ‘regretting’ it, or is it?… maybe I’m getting too emotional but the other side being unhappy this fast reads like they just had a division when they were able to be united previously. I want to believe there is genuine reason to be upset, but my brain feels like switching to people being REALLY impatient or thinking things will be fixed ASAP after 12 years of UK economy being shit.

The kind of change the last 2 political parties for 100 years have been promising.

Well welcome Nigel Farage as either opposition or as PM because this guy will fuck us all.
