“The march saw protestors demanding the government halt austerity and tackle the cost of living crisis There were a huge range of demands on display, including on the environment, wages and the World Cup”
It’s probably just a day out for lefties , bless ‘em.
The countries pretty much broke , not least because of government largesse during COVID and world events . How will a Labour government’ halt austerity and tackle the cost of living crisis ? More taxes ?

The countries pretty much broke , not least because of government largesse during COVID and world events . How will a Labour government’ halt austerity and tackle the cost of living crisis ? More taxes ? Good point. As I have probably said before, Starmer knows that to beat the Tories he needs a mildly left of centre party, and to that end he has promised to matched every Tory spending cut. Sunak meanwhile, is desperate to increase revenue and to do that he will need to put up taxes. If it is a matter of increasing corporation taxes then the left will go for it because no one likes shareholders and the more numerate labour party economists realise that it won't work anyway.
But sooner or later Sir Stodge will look at his layabout army and think, well, no matter how much money we throw at them, the shiftless bastards still won't work and in fact just squeal for more. On the other hand, they do vote Labour.
How to square the circle?

I think we need something more practical over further progressivist idealogues, and that seems to be the conflict within the Conservatives.

More power to their elbow mate. That woman who nudged one of the arseholes in Londonistan with her 4X4 got fined 6k and a years ban. I would put a a rope around the arseholes and on to my bumper and snatch them off so fast they would leave their arse behind still glued to the tarmac. That was an absolute disgrace. The Home Secretary should remove the judge responsible for that miscarriage of justice. If ever there was a case for retrial, this is surely it. The lefty agitator who was blocking traffic was already in breach of a high court injunction for blocking the public highway, yet the police arrested the driver! Go figure. I’ve had the opinion that the police do not see much difference between the perpetrator and the victim when the crime isn’t deemed to be serious enough . Especially in this case where there are political undertones . The police will do nothing about anti social behaviour then arrest the victim if they retaliate . In this case it’s more important to stop the public from taking the law in their own hands than the police actually doing their job and serving the public.

How are labour to blame for 12yrs of disastrous Government. Not being a credible opposition, for one thing. And offering too many complicated manifesto policies, and ridiculous leaders as potential PMs. Not that I’m defending the Tories — they’ve been promising fairyland, but in ways more believed by voters…

All it shows is that a small number a fraction of the 65 + million people that inhabit this rock bothered to take to the streets to vent their spleen, nothing more than that, If the Government does not get its act together, get our economy back on track which the Far-Left Union Leaders that are orchestrating strikes that are damaging our economy, protect our borders to stop unlawfully entry by the thousands every year, and deport undesirables, remove all EU rules and regulation that are still in place in the UK, get Law and Order back on track, energy problems deal with the Woke nonsense. It is highly likely than at some point in the future that the silent and silenced majority could take to the streets in their millions, if that happens watch the Far-Left head for the hills

The Socialist Campaign Group consists of a grand total of 33 Labour MPs, representing 16% of the entire Parliamentary Labour Party.
The group is overwhelmed within the Parliamentary Party by MPs of the Centre Left and supporters of the leadership. Since Labour overtook the Tories in the polls, and then widened their lead, the group has largely fallen silent, with the occassional outburst from such people as Richard Burgon and Dianne Abbot.
In reality, the Socialist Campaign Group pose no threat to the Labour Party at all, and have no chance of performing any kind of political coup, not least because the actual membership are now overwhelmingly supportive of the leadership.
There have always been members of the far Left within the Labour Party - just as there has always been far Right and Populists within the Tory Party ( The Monday Club / The ERG ).
When the next election comes - it will not be about factions within the two main political parties, it will be about the record of the Conservatives, and what the alternative offers.

The visible Labour far left seem to be the ones indulging in identity politics and anti white agendas . The ones in the mid 20 th century ( 60 s/ 70s) were more working class warriors ie Tony Benn , Dennis Skinner . At some point the left junked the very people who nourished it and focused on grubbing for votes by identity politics and demonising the ordinary folk .
