    Cons lost their votes to the nazis more often than the Lib Dems.

    I left britain years ago when brexit happened, that country is stupid, and I wish the people that still live there the best of luck.

    I also would like to remind them that I wasted much air trying to convince them that voting LD wasn’t a waste of time, but for some reason, 4 million of them can be convinced to vote for a third party, but only if it’s racist enough, and not civil liberties oriented enough.

    Starmer didn’t win this election, the tories lost it due to a split vote.

    This doesn’t look like the extremely winning party that run an extremely successful campaign. It looks like a bunch of chancers that got lucky flipping seats due to split voter base of nazis.

    I’m not even optimistic that center left starmer is going to do anything all that impressive to be honest. I hope I’m wrong, I think Biden is doing great and getting no credit. Best of luck to him and to Britain, I hope things get better in that country.
