Keir WON'T be missed

"Sir Keir Starmer looks set to resign as Prime Minister in this coming week."

"Journalist Dan Hodges has reported that a Cabinet Minister has informed him that: 'they believe Keir Starmer will announce he's standing down this week without the need for a contest.' He goes on to say that this is the first time he's heard this directly from a Cabinet Minister."

The one behind him is 100x worse, but it will be short lived. The Labour Party is being absolutely destroyed right now and there doesn't appear to be a way to correct the ship.

This is correcting the ship.

Now get rid of all the star wars names in politics

Every time I see his name I think Germany.

Please, enlighten us all knowing individual of UK politics…

Meant Labour's ship.

One, that tweet was showing SEATS, not votes.

Two, much of the ground made up by Reform was at the expense of other conservative parties.

Three, much of Labor's losses were split between the Greens and the Lib Dems.

TLDR: The idea that all the Labor voters are just switching to Reform is very wrong. Reform is gaining a lot of support on the basis that many conservatives view other conservative parties as too soft on immigration.

And based on observable evidence, they would be right

These were local elections, not parliament.

But, Labour absolutely lost a ton of voters, and it's not real hard to argue many switched to reform. Labor MP's have a big group that came out this weekend (I think 30 or so) demanding Starmer step down. Ending a 72-year run of running Wales I think is just a big red flag heading toward 2027 cycle there, but I don't follow their politics much tbf. Headlines about dramatic overnight changes in actual governance in Europe are usually wrong, imho.

Buh-Bye!

The Labor Party (akin to the Dems in the US) are pro immigrants and pro illegals as they create a new votebank. UK Labor party has brought in Muslims in boatloads who are now going around committing crime and raping women.

People seem to be fed up. They need a Trumpesque leader to weed these terrorists out.

Unfortunately they'll never have a Trumpesque leader. They're too far lost. The entire British mindset that made them a world power for centuries is gone.
