I think that's been the case for the last 13 years. While Blair is now generally seen as an arsehole, Labour's pledges in 1997 of Education were probably the last time a party was voted in on a positive message. There has been little positivity in British politics since.

We'd had 18 years of the Tories by 1997. 13 years of labour was enough by 2010 and now we've had enough of another 14 years of the Tories (although they've probably overstayed their welcome this time).
Wonder how long it'll be til the country's had enough of this version of the Labour Party?

One term only with a note, I'm afraid there is no money left.

I'm talking more generally, you've become more aggressive and fervent in your now entrenched left wing view. Admit it, you're in a "culture war" echo chamber on twitter. I've seen a marked change in you over time. Not having a pop just making an observation

But I thought you'd only been posting on here a tomato season?
Strange that in this thread, I'm being accused on the one hand of abandoning my left wing principals to vote Tory lite and on the other I'm in a culture war echo chamber on Twitter that makes me more aggressive and fervent in my entrenched left wing view. You Tories need to make your minds up :xmashehe:. In reality, the truth is much simpler, I'll do whatever makes a defeat more likely for your lot at the ballot box.
I see you ignored my question on what would possess anyone to keep on voting for this Government - what have they done in the last four years that makes you proud to be a Tory?

Also let's not forget half the country was crazed up on Brexit at the time and the Labour party was painted as the destroyer of dreams. Never before has the majority been so overwhelmingly gaslit by the bullshit of a few.
It was indeed a sticky situation.

I don't think he's really sure, I think he takes a lead from Sludge on this point, then the others on here for other views?
If he was proper left like some of the others, he would be wetting himself with excitement at the mention of Jewemy coming back to beat up Starmer :hehe:

Yeah, you two have a chat between yourselves and maybe you can sort a united approach out between you - you may also work out an answer to my question as to why on earth you are still backing this Government.

"Gbeebies" is such a cringe term. I'll bet that prat Owen Jones uses it day in day out. You and Bob need to lay off the culture WARS stuff.
And stop supporting avowed communists. Not a good look

Where did he mention Daily Mail or GB News? Neither of which you consume, would be my guess?
Strange way to argue against being part of a culture-war when you say stuff like that.

By your logic that Ninian guy must also be in a culture war because nobody mentioned Twitter until him.

Probably agree with you on it. I think it's more the way that people will use these often crass stereotypes and then deny it is contributing to any culture war. Sensible people consume all media in my opinion.

No, we've had twenty six years of Labour with the Westminster Government pulling the financial strings.

When have I ever posted a message on here about support socialism or the Labour party?
I'll tell you: Never.
I don't get involved in the left v right political party squabbles on here.
Retract your fantasy about my political leanings, you gibbering idiot.
