Reform want that panic, they want the discord because that is all they have. Starmer might be a little too boring and light on fairy tales for you, but he (or tbh anyone that would have lead the party through the last election) is exactly what the country needs at the momen (not changing), whether the country knows that or not.
I'd say he needs to get rid of Reeves and take a different tax approach, but maybe McSweeney going is the start of the next phase.
Your posts drip with condescension, and yet I’ve been more accurate than you have with your reading of politics over the past two years.
You are waiting for some ‘fairytale’ ending, where all those voters Starmer’s principle and conviction free leadership has lost/never really had will vote for him in a few years time.
Keep believing that dreams still come true, the only way Labour get back in power is with a Lib or Green pact via a hung parliament or with a new leader.
Btw you haven’t once previously criticised McSweeney which says a lot for your political judgment and yet now he’s gone, you’re throwing him under the bus. Anything to defend Starmer..
