Anything has to be better than 14 Years of Conservative Failure.......
-
Amazing how much faster they are able to move and transition compared to the US
-
What a greatest Achievement for Labour Party. I saw their face shining. I wish you all the very Best ®️
-
No Honeymoon. We can't afford it.
-
Congratulations UK 🇬🇧 hopefully the United States follows suit!! 🇺🇸💙💙
-
But of flirting there. Professional flirting maybe. But Starmer Is the best news for us Brits. Hope it shows the USA that you could avoid another Trump presidency.
-
The 34% that Labour got is really misleading, in my opinion. The two main left-of-centre parties got 34% and 14% respectively, but there was a concerted effort to coordinate the vote, so we could look at the two parties together as an informal voting block with 48% of the electorate.

Its only Americans who say things like, Rishi Cannot be a PM for Christian country, bulabulabula, if that was a problematic, he wont be a PM in the first place. he would have to drop his candidacy for Tory leadership. UK is technically a CoE country, however ones religion in politic does not matter as long as the politician does not bring onto it, and system is remarkably religion free since 1950s. because God may be in everyone's heart, but politic is agenda's of human beings not God.

The adults are back in the room.

Australia has a centre left government.
-
labour's support may be a mile wide but it might be an inch deep. labour have to perform and quickly.
-
Biden and Starmer are not the only center-left leaders in the developed world right now. Scholtz in Germany (social democrat), Albanese in Australia (Labor Party) and Trudeau in Canada (champagne socialist) come to mind.
-
Congratulations,

2:45 "... the people who will be shaping policy coming here and getting their marching orders from the new Prime Minister..." Either the Labour government is beginning in unprecedented chaos or the reporter is using this idiom very differently to that standard in British English (viz 'to get marching orders' = 'to be sacked'). I wonder whether his usage is common in US English.
-
Change starts now. Hopefully. 🤞 lol
-
Wasn’t James Cleverly also black tho?
-
So... jump straight to the divorce?
-
What will Mr. Starmer do about the Brexit mess? He says UK won't rejoin EU or join or the customs union.
