Personally, I cant see a Labour win having any redeeming features. Prime minister Starmer is a frightening prospect.

Quite frankly in my own case I'm not enthused by the idea of any party governing, so whoever wins, I'll take it on the chin and then look at their policies with disdain and grumble to whoever is my MP.

No, of course not. In the unlikely event of a Tory win my biggest criticism of Sunak would be the fact that he is not Conservative enough, but that doesn't frighten me, it pisses me off. |

Can't see the lib dems doing much apart from their usual whinging and whinining....Best they join the SNATS as they are also a non entity... |

If I were Starmer and I were a top lawyer like he likes to think himself as, then I would prosecute the covid corruption and hang a few heads. That's about the best thing I see Starmer fit to do that would actually benefit the country. One thing this country needs more than anything is to eliminate corruption. Oddly enough right now it is more important than the economy, and that is because you can not do capitalism in a corrupt system. Corruption is like a cancer for the economic well-being of the country. Leaders that have clamped down have seen big gains in economic performance as business partners can trust the system. No trust = take your business elsewhere. Mind you sods law says something like those corrupt people might have brown and black faces that make it politically difficult on the Left. |

In a two party-system when a cycle comes to an end and tweedledee replaces tweedledum there's always a short period of optimism that things could actually change but people become disappointed very soon. However, as people have short memories when the cycle changes the next time there's again a sense of brief optimism.

However, as people have short memories when the cycle changes the next time there's again a sense of brief optimism. These days I agree. Since 2010 the Tories have been moving to the centre and with the disaster that was Corbyn Labour realised, as Blair did, that to stand any chance of electoral success Labour must move to the centre which has resulted in two centrist parties, which in turn will result in voter apathy. Unless, yes there is a glimmer of hope, it's not much but you never know. Sunak who we all know is a liberal globalist, is in the dying days of his premiership becoming a Conservative. Not because he wants to, but because he knows it's what Conservative voters want. Too little too late? Probably, but hey, who knows. |

Everything he says he is going to do, he also says the opposite. I suppose that would be a bit like him doing a case and being both prosecution and defence. I wonder how he survives. |
