Both parties are in deep shit, tbh. The problem is, there isn't a clear distinction between the parties anymore. Politicians are divided on pretty much everything, from Brexit, to COVID, to immigration. One camp, which exists in both the Labour party and the Conservative party, wants to move further right, and the other further left.
Corbynism, a relic from the past (Marxists despise Jews, btw), clearly isn't fit for purpose in today's society.
Both are chasing the same type of voter, middle of the road, centre left, old white people.

I doubt Starmer can overturn an 80 seat majority, Johnson is struggling to gain any public momentum - which is very worrying for Tories I guess that was his USP.

Labour is giving the government enough rope to hang itself.

My read is that Corbyn himself is not anti-semitic.
But the group he relied on for power and with whom he shared many opinions, DOES have anti-semites and he never confronted that.

Although not by design but by default. Doesn’t reflect well on Labour that with a hell of a long way to go to overturn a huge majority, it relies on the boon of the Conservatives fucking up during a major pandemic. Not sure anyone’s gaining from this shitfest.

Momentum? Loads of 4x2's in that. The problem isn't being Anti Jewish, it's being Anti Zionist. The Zionists don't give a shit about your average jew.

Starmer doesn't run the NEC, I bet he wishes he did.

Starmer not restoring the whip for Corbyn

Excellent move.

I'm sure he has queued up the line that his party isn't run by advisors but by democratic institutions - even if they are a little loony.

The Labour Party seems to be doing its own frenetic version of the hokey cokey.
Can’t be arsed.
