I find it interesting that all those who voted remain are adamant that there should be a second vote, yet apparently, those disenchanted with #Labour are just sore losers.

in reply to Steve • •Two million is a drop in the ocean. It would be interesting if it reached twenty million, but I can't see it happening. We Brits have no staying power anymore. Unless the press manages to fan the coals, it'll fizzle out by next week through total apathy or the next clickbait.
Starmer has no reason to call one; his majority is too big, there's no way a vote of no confidence can be called, and even if there were one, #Labour would win again. The #Conservatives are a spent force. The only potential gain would be for #ReformUK, who I wouldn't be surprised to see come second, with the Tories a close third.
To be honest, I signed for the sake of it. We are in for at least eight years, possibly ten of the Socialists. 😢

in reply to Neil Darlow :gotosocial: :silverblue: :xmpp: • •We can only hope. Interestingly, I see from the news this morning that teenagers, the very people who voted #Labour in, will be forced to find work or lose their benefits, which will be difficult given Labour has ensured there are fewer jobs by raising business NI. You've gotta laugh.
