@cstross No. I knew Starmer was going to be an unmitigated shitshow but, given the system, his clown show was the least worst choice.

Though there's a cigarette paper's width dividing their actions from their predecessors.

As *anyone* who paid attention before the election should have known. Lesser of two obvious evils.

Ditto here, but I wasn't expecting Starmer & Co. to be quite as bad as they've turned out to be. (Last GE was a vote against Galloway's lot, next one will preferably be Green - as long as there's no risk of Führage or Galloway getting an MP, otherwise I will hold my nose and vote for the TERF as least worst option.)

@Cadbury_Moose @jumile I have the good fortune to live in Scotland, so a vote for the SNP wasn't wasted—and it was obvious in '24 that the Tories were going to be obliterated (Labour sees the SNP as their main enemy in Scotland, mostly because the SNP are an actual viable centre-left party of government, unlike Labour this century).
