So tiresome. You've sunk to Ellers levels, mate.

Stroller….it’s obvious to many that Labour has abandoned the working class vote and has adapted a policy of globalisation and neo-liberalism. It started with Blair and has now continued with Starmer.
Therefore I can only conclude that supporters of Labour are happy with that direction and are in fact, supportive of that change.
As I said before…if the cap fits. Please don’t take it as an insult
 
Is it because the alternative told them what they wanted to hear?

I totally get the theory that Labour have somehow lost the working class, what with all their policies that could have helped the working class. I don’t get how the alternative is in any way better let alone blatantly obviously much worse.

Labour lost the working class vote because they forgot to talk to the working class. The Tories manipulated that and used it to their advantage….it’s what politicians do….they lie. All of them

Yet they offered policies that would have benefitted the poorest in society. They just refused to blindly back a Brexit that everyone knew would **** the working class and have the temerity to give a **** about groups like transgenders.

As I've explained before, the cap doesn't fit and it therefore is an insult. But then insults seem to be your modus operandi these days.

I want to see a left wing government. The current Labour party may not provide that, but it would be a darn site closer than what we currently have.

You seem happier with the Tories.

If you think the EU was pro working class then there really is no hope Bracknell

A Left wing party that has kicked out anyone who is even remotely Left wing and has steadily moved further to the right ?
I have my principles and was hoodwinked once already by Blair and New Labour…..it won’t happen again

Where did the money originate from ?

That’s not really the ****ing point is it. Our **** **** government isn’t going to re-distribute it in nearly as fair a way.

There are two, at a push, parties that can win an election. Any vote not for the party likeliest to oust the Tories in any seat might as well be a vote for the Tories. Your fantasy Corbyn-style Labour Party has been massively rejected because this simply isn’t a left wing country. I wish it was but it isn’t.

But that’s entirely the point. And the fact that people like you and Strolls were happy with that situation is totally bizarre. The rich fat cat, friends of business in the EU were rubbing their hands with glee as they took their cut of the money before redistributing what was left after filling up their pension funds.
We can only defeat one enemy at a time. The EU wasn’t our friend and neither are the Tories

I’m afraid you’re living in a fantasy world. The proles aren’t going to rise up.
