I quite like how a Tory like Nuts (who truly believes he's unbiased?) is unhappy with Labour.
My opinion of many politicians, but not all, is equally poor. I’ve probably voted Labour more than Tory but in recent years Labour have chosen badly when selecting leaders. Liked John Smith and the other Milliband, not the numpty one. And supported Blair for much of his time, enjoyed the New Labour movement. Also a great fan of Thatcher, Cameron and Major.
Starmer et al and simply disasters. Worse to come. We are in a dictatorship.

How come you werent such an activist during the last 14 years on the Tory watch thread?
Because if you care to read, I’m neither a Tory nor a Labour supporter. I go with whomever I think will be the best PM. I’m comfortable saying the Tories got a lot wrong. They paid the price and were kicked out.
But Jeez, Labour are getting so much wrong and so quickly. I don’t think I can recall an election winning PM ever going downhill at such a speed. Most enjoy a decent honeymoon period. When answering questions too they are a one trick pony. To be expected for a while but it wears a bit thin.
I’ve just seen Diane Abbott on TV criticising broken Labour promises over the pension payout, alongside photos of the Labour Top 3 parading with placards demanding compensation just a couple of years ago. Wow. Hypocrisy from Starmer and his top team. I would say beyond belief, but of course it is fully believable. A freeloading hypocrite far worse than those he criticised.
You do realise all this is in your head, right?
The polls, comments, even Diane Abbot on TV? In my head? Yer aving a laugh.

Liar, liar, pants on fire, as my old mum used to say. I think you'll find out what a dictatorship looks like if Farage gets in.

Are you for real ? A dictatorship? And you were a fan of Thatcher who sold the country to the highest bidder! Cameron - austerity for a couple of years - who didn’t know the cost of a pint of milk! Also what did Major achieve? Plus 14 years of the Tories giving the country bugger all! I assume you also think Boris Johnson was good for the country - someone who thought he was above the law!
Make a true assessment of Labour after 14 years in power.

Deflection. This is a Labour watch forum. Sidetracking to the Tories is simply just trying to avoid the current shambles with whataboutery.
Labour needs to be judged on what they say and do. Growth down, inflation up, many people worse off already, with more to come. The budget was not one for growth unless everybody and their dog who live in the real world are wrong. Mortgages not dropping as fast as they could etc. And they are proving to be just as bad as the Tories despite all this holier than thou stuff they talked about. 6 months and they are already plummeting at record speed.
Unless you have your head in the sand you know what I am saying is true.
