Seems poetic that after becoming prime minister without a general election, that he’s on course to lose his majority without a general election.
They live in a little bubble of their own without much reference to the real world.
He was chosen by the party in part because he had relatively high approval ratings, higher than the parties actually. Problem was they never wondered why, they never wondered if it might be because he was chancellor during the pandemic and was the face of the furlough scheme.
Perhaps people liked him because he’d never done anything really offensive, as far as they were aware, and had given them some money a while back. But none of that was because of any talent on his part. So inevitably when the public had to judge him on his own merits, and found out that he doesn’t have any, his popularity rating dropped.
This was an inevitable chain of events that a concussed hamster would not have had trouble predicting.
Trouble is the concussed hamster didn’t say anything, too upset after she got booted for her mini budget.
What does this say about the current state of Labour though?
They’re red Tories
Tale as old as time political utd/city fans
They’ve got another Tory leading the Labour party advised by Tony Blair (himself a Thatcherite). The Tories and Labour are so far left that George Galloway is described as far right.
Guido where are you now?!
In reality, he’s probably trying to save himself from the dole queue.
He’s standing down at the next general election anyway, so this isn’t about saving his seat.
My bad!

What are you even trying to say? And Blair is many things, but not a Thatcherite
Upvoted because I agree that Labour have taken the centre-right place vacated by the Tories shift towards the far right.
The last hope I have in the current Labour leadership is that they are even worse liars than we thought and will turn around and implement loads progressive policies once they have been allowed into office by the right wing press. The fact that they’ve been have loads of meeting with the finance ghouls isn’t a good sign but perhaps they’re stringing them along too. I’m probably just indulging my fantasies though.
